Nanobubbles are an advanced water treatment technology that harnesses physical forces at the microscopic level to significantly enhance gas solubility in water. Unlike traditional bubbles that quickly rise and burst at the surface, nanobubbles are gas spheres less than 200 nanometers in diameter—so small that they remain suspended in water without rapidly rising or escaping.
This technology works by applying shear force at the interface between a solid surface and a fluid, splitting gases like oxygen into nanoscale bubbles. As a result, the dissolved gas concentration increases, enabling water to retain high levels of oxygen or other gases for extended periods.
Nanobubbles offer several unique advantages:
- Long-Term Stability: Their small size allows them to remain in water for prolonged durations without degassing.
- High Gas Solubility: With increased surface area-to-volume ratio, nanobubbles dramatically enhance gas absorption.
- Enhanced Water Quality: This makes them ideal for applications in aquaculture, agriculture, wastewater treatment, and environmental remediation.
At IGS Water, our nanobubble generators produce pure nanobubbles with over 99% efficiency, requiring no circulation and withstanding high-solid water environments without clogging. Whether you’re looking to improve turf health, oxygenate aquaculture systems, or treat complex wastewater challenges, nanobubbles deliver a compact and energy-efficient solution.
