About Mikroflot Technologies

MikroFlot Technologies provides viable alternatives for wastewater effluent treatment to small and medium sized industrial and commercial facilites who cannot afford expensive on-site treatment. Our technology is based on the principle of microflotation, that is, the removal of suspended contaminants by flotation with very small (with diameters of less than 50 micrometers) gas bubbles. Unlike the well established separation processes of DAF (dissolved air flotation) or IAF (induced air flotation) which rely on significantly larger diamater bubble dispersions and are based on the air-saturation of a pressurized water stream, our process introduces a tightly controlled, high bubble density gas dispersion into the treated effluent. In the flotation of micrometer-sized particles or droplets with DAF or IAF, high removal rates are not possible given these smaller suspended particles tend to simply follow the fluid streamlines around the rising millimeter-sized bubbles. This is why effluent stream are typically pretreated with a coagulant/flocculant chemical agent prior to DAF/IAF flotation. By using much smaller microbubbles, microflotation relies on the weaker hydrodynamic resistance between the suspended particle and approaching bubble, while at the same time, leverages the stronger Brownian forces that contribute to bring both bubble and suspended particle together.
