Wastewater Treatment with Nanobubbles in Iran’s Isfahan Yields Good Results for Recycling Water

According to a report by Iran Nanotechnology Innovation Council (INIC), a technological company has used nanobubbles to treat wastewater in some plants in Isfahan Province in central Iran.

The good results obtained by the company in Isfahan shows nanobubbles technology is highly useful in water treatment.  

“Currently, we are working on the development of this technology in Iran. For that, we have included the injection of various gases such as ozone, oxygen, and air in the form of nanobubbles inside fluids,” said Davood Saeidi, the managing director of the technological company after saying that the company's research has focused on nanobubbles since 2017.

“In the city of Isfahan, we focused on wastewater treatment, because water is of critical importance there; therefore, we implemented advanced wastewater treatment systems and used nanobubbles to treat urban wastewater in Isfahan. For that purpose, the wastewater is first treated in several stages, and in the next stage, we use nanobubble technology to help with better treatment,” he explained.

“This technology helps to increase water oxygen; Because in water treatment, aeration plays an important role in flotation and wastewater treatment. This technology is also very useful in hydroponic agriculture. Currently, we have the possibility to perform water and wastewater treatment on industrial and large scales,” added Saeidi.

This company is operating in the field of designing and manufacturing two-phase vortex pumps, nano-ozone systems, and designing and implementing complementary wastewater treatment systems. The equipment of this company is used in oil and gas and petrochemical industries, food industry, papermaking, hydroponic greenhouses and fisheries.
