Fine Bubble Disc Diffusers for Wastewater Treatment Systems

27 Feb.,2024

 

Membranes

Patented PTFE membranes from SSI Aeration, Inc. prolong your system’s efficiency and reduce its whole-life costs. Our membranes reduce plasticizer extraction, membrane hardening, and shrinking. Since they protect your diffuser from these issues, they also reduce the risk of dynamic changes such as creep that result from the swell. Coating your membrane in PTFE makes your headloss values more consistent throughout the product’s life.

When you use our PTFE membrane in your aeration system, your system also stays cleaner. Compared to leading EPDM membranes in the industry, they feature a reduced need for cleanings and improved fouling resistance. Our PTFE membrane demonstrates this improvement over its competitors by a factor of five to 10.

Resistances

Compared to an uncoated membrane, our PTFE membranes improve long-term power costs and air distribution. PTFE membranes from SSI also resist:

  • Fuels
  • Solvents
  • Hydrocarbons
  • Chemicals
  • Fats, oils, and greases

Our PTFE membrane’s resistance to these materials makes it suitable for food processing and oil and gas refineries in addition to wastewater treatment plants.

Mounting Styles

Create the system that fits your needs. We engineer fine bubble disc diffusers and mount them on a wide range of piping materials, including:

  • PVC
  • CPVC
  • PP
  • Stainless steel

Other Materials

Your choice of connector materials also impacts the final system’s performance. When we attach your diffusers to your pipe, we can use components such as:

  • Saddles
  • Grommets
  • Pre-assembled PODs™

Wondering how to assemble your system? Let us provide a retrievable system or a fixed grid. Our systems can also come in the form of a kit or with most of the parts pre-assembled. We will discuss your needs so we can offer recommendations that fit your situation.

Fine Bubble Disc Diffusers in MBBR

SSI designs its moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) systems to work with fine bubble disc diffusers. An MBBR is a cost-effective wastewater treatment option because it consumes less energy than other systems and lowers hydraulic retention time (HRT).

This reduces operation and energy costs, and it allows the system to operate in a smaller space. MBBR systems also operate with a greater hydraulic capacity, allowing them to treat more wastewater at one time.

SSI designs its fine bubble disc diffusers and MBBR systems to ensure compatibility. SSI’s fine bubble disc diffusers work in MBBR systems with maximum performance and quality.
