EnviroCeramic - Model ECD Series -Anti-Microbial Ceramic Diffuser

Our diffusers are used in diverse applications where efficient and static gas transfer into liquids is required. These applications include, but are not limited to:

1. Aquaculture: Used in Recirculating Aquaculture (RAS) tanks, ponds, raceways, hatcheries, transporters and cages. These diffusers are most suitable for supplementing oxygen in both fresh and sea water with increased fish stock densities and as an emergency back-up device. It is also used effectively for the safe transportation and anesthetising fish with CO2 for handling and processing purposes.
2. Waste Water Treatment: The supply of oxygen for aeration is the single largest energy consumer at an activated sludge wastewater treatment plant. Due to the higher efficiency of ECD diffusers, compared to membrane diffusers or bubbly hoses, the ECD’s are effectively used for reducing biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) in ponds, channels and larger pipes as well as aiding aerobic bacteria for digesters.
3. Koi Ponds: The mist of air bubbles created optimises Koi Pond aeration and our unique brown ceramic and resin camouflages the diffuser visibly from disruptions of seeing your beautiful fish. Water circulation pump failure or high summer temperatures can lead to decreased oxygen levels that can cause fish dying, diffusers aid in avoiding this. It is also recommended to supplement oxygen levels during the night. The diffuser is also used effectively for the safe transportation of fish. Hydroponics/Aquaponics: In a Deep-Water Culture (DWC) hydroponic system it is vital to have sufficient oxygen levels because the roots are submerged. For optimal growth it is recommended to diffuse 1.5 L/min of air into 50 litres (130 gallons) of cooled nutrient solution to maintain
4. Dissolved Oxygen (DO) levels of 8-9 ppm. Be aware to adjust pH levels over time and keep the water temperature around an optimum of 22°C (72°F). Other systems require less oxygen, only to maintain aerobic conditions from the perpetual motion the diffuser creates with its tiny bubbles and airlift principles.
5. Marine Tanks: These diffusers are most suitable for supplementing oxygen in sea water with increased fish stock densities and as an emergency backup device.
6.  Ozon Diffuser: our latest development is a 100% ozone resistant lowpressure diffuser for ozone applications such as water sterilisation. This diffuser is also high temperature resistant and can also be used in bioreactors where temperatures exceed boiling point.
