Nano Bubble Water Treatment Systems
Advanced nano bubble generator systems and nanobubble technology for oxygenation in greenhouse irrigation, industrial process water and wastewater treatment. Cleaner, more stable water without chemicals.
What are nano bubbles?
True nano bubbles are smaller than 200 nm and stay suspended in water for days to weeks. Their tiny size, high internal pressure and negative surface charge boost dissolved oxygen, improve mass transfer and reduce biofilm - without chemicals.
Why ultrafine bubbles behave differently
Below 200 nm
True nano bubbles are smaller than 200 nm and scatter light without being visible.
Long residence time
Stay suspended for days or weeks instead of seconds.
High internal pressure
Drives efficient gas dissolution and oxygen transfer.
Negative surface charge
Reduces particle agglomeration and helps disrupt biofilm.
Behaviour in water
Macro & microbubbles
Rise quickly to the surface and burst within seconds to minutes.
Nano bubbles
Neutrally buoyant, remain in the water for days to weeks.
How nano bubbles work in water
Four mechanisms that explain why nano bubble enriched water performs differently from conventionally aerated water.
Efficient gas transfer
The very small bubble size and large surface-to-volume ratio means oxygen and other gases dissolve into the water far more efficiently than with conventional aeration, often with significantly less energy per kilo of oxygen transferred.
Natural oxidation support
Higher and more stable dissolved oxygen levels boost aerobic microbial activity and natural oxidation, helping reduce odour, organic load and pathogens without adding chemicals.
Improved physical separation
The negatively charged surface attracts fine particles, oils and surfactants. Contaminants attach to the bubbles and become easier to remove through flotation, filtration or downstream separators.
Anti-biofilm scouring
Vast quantities of ultrafine bubbles continuously contact pipe walls, drip lines and tank surfaces. Their physical action helps prevent biofilm build-up and keeps recirculating systems cleaner for longer.

Compact, scalable equipment
Our nano bubble generators are built as self-contained units that can be wheeled into place and integrated with existing water lines. The design philosophy is the same across the range: a robust cabinet, simple operator controls, pressure gauges for live monitoring, and the nano bubble generation module itself, with no chemistry or consumables in the water path.
Different sizes for different processes
Small units
Compact mobile cabinets for greenhouses, R&D, pilots and smaller recirculating loops. Easy to roll between locations and trial across multiple beds or tanks.
Medium systems
Cabinet- or skid-mounted units sized for commercial greenhouses, aquaculture tanks, swimming pools, ponds and lakes. Built for continuous operation in a fixed installation and integrated with your existing water loop.
Industrial systems
Higher-capacity configurations for industrial wastewater, aquaculture, large greenhouse operations and municipal applications, with multiple generators in parallel when needed.
Custom-built for your process
Flow rate, gas type (air, oxygen or ozone), inlet/outlet sizing, control interface and cabinet footprint can all be configured around your existing setup. If a standard unit doesn't fit, we design one that does, in collaboration with our manufacturing partner.
Applications
Where nano bubble technology delivers the most value.
Greenhouses & horticulture
Improve oxygen availability, reduce stagnant zones and support healthier recirculating irrigation systems. Particularly relevant for growers managing biofilm, root-zone oxygen, algae pressure and disease risk in closed irrigation loops.
Industrial process & wastewater treatment
For process water, utility water and biological treatment lines where oxygen transfer, biological stability and organic load management matter. Nano bubble systems support aerobic activity in difficult-to-aerate water and complement existing biological and probiotic treatment strategies.
Recirculated wash water
For closed or semi-closed wash water systems where odour, organic load, surfactants, oil residues and unstable oxygen levels can create operational challenges.
Pilot testing & integration
We work with customers on small-scale trials and integration studies to evaluate how nano bubble technology fits into existing treatment lines before committing to a full-scale installation.

Case 01
Source water - natural pond
Stagnant water with low dissolved oxygen lets algae, biofilm and anaerobic bacteria take over the storage tank.
Continuous oxygenation and natural oxidation from collapsing nano bubbles suppress algae and pathogens, keeping source water clear and stable.
Nano bubble effect
Long lived nano bubbles raise dissolved oxygen for days and slowly release reactive oxygen species that break down organics without chemicals.
Potential benefits
Higher dissolved oxygen with lower energy input
Reduced biofilm and stagnation in recirculating loops
Support for aerobic biological activity
Improved odour control in closed systems
Compatible with existing separation and biological treatment
Chemical-free oxygenation
Nano bubble technology is highly application-dependent. We recommend pilot testing to confirm performance for your specific water chemistry and process.
