Disc diffusers with rubber membranes are among the best diffuser membranes for wastewater treatment to resist contamination and save resources on a dairy farm. Discover the best solution to manage wastewater efficiently and sustainably.
Key Factors in Selecting the Best Diffuser Membrane
When researching a diffuser membrane, a few critical factors can be the difference between efficiency and wastefulness. Choose your membrane based on:
- Bubble type: Membranes come in various forms, specifically based on the desired bubble size. Select from fine or coarse bubble diffusers based on your wastewater treatment efficiency needs.
- Wastewater characteristics: Your chosen membrane should depend on your dairy farm’s wastewater characteristics. For example, if you deal more with high solid content, you will choose a different membrane than if you need more oxygen transfer.
- Application needs: Diffuser membranes can accommodate application needs. The final decision could be based on maintenance requirements, desired lifespan or budget concerns.
The Best Solution: Disc Diffusers
Disc diffusers provide the best solution for dairy wastewater treatment because they can disperse more oxygen into the water for aeration. This strategy effectively diffuses small air bubbles to mix with wastewater and break down organic waste. SSI carries two forms of bubble disc diffusers — fine bubble and coarse bubble.
Fine Bubble Diffusers
Fine bubble disc diffusers are round plates with a mounted EPDM rubber membrane. SSI Aeration, Inc coats rubber membranes with a PEEK coating to combat bacteria and fouling. This coating makes maintenance and overall care much more manageable. SSI’s diffuser membranes handle primary and secondary treatments with oxygen transfer and energy efficiency.
Coarse Bubble Diffusers
Coarse bubble diffusers can produce large bubbles, displacing more waste liquid and producing more power for mixing. This process can break down organic waste, making it less likely to form sludge. As a result, the larger pores are designed to avoid clogging and have lower maintenance needs. SSI Aeration, Inc sells ReliaBall™ coarse bubble diffusers in various sizes for more durable treatment solutions.
