MicroGas™ for Flotation

The most Simple and Energy-efficient Microflotation Technology

MicroGas™ generates white water for optimal removal of FOG and TSS without dissolving gas into water and hence no recycle stream is required. For this reason, MicroGas™-powered flotation plants can be designed with smaller tank volumes and footprints whilst keeping the required HRT (Hydraulic Retention Time) for an optimal performance. Additionally, our technology uses a fraction of the energy of conventional microbubble generating processes.

 

Key Benefits

safeguard

Simplicity

  • No recycle stream – minimal equipment required
  • Avoid downtimes related to pump and nozzle failures

asa

Energy Efficiency

  • Lowest energy consumption < 0,05 kWh/m3
  • Up to 90% lower due to lower operating pressures (1-2 bar) independently from salinity and temperature.

asa

Compact

  • Lowest footprint
  • Adjustable gas flow rate – only changing inlet pressure
