OxyMem a Dupont Company
About
OxyMem is a breakthrough technology for wastewater aeration. Up to now this has been a very energy intensive process which has relied on forced, or ‘bubble aeration to deliver oxygen to the bacteria that breakdown. Pumping and treating wastewater typically accounts for up to 2.5% of all electrical power produced in a developed country. The Aeration process comprises of 60% of this energy, on average.
Oxymem is the brand name for our patented MABR (Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor) solution. OxyMem does not rely on a bubble to transfer oxygen which results in a minimum of a four times savingon energy when compared to bubble aeration. OxyMem uses gas permeable membranes, which allow oxygen to be transferred directly to the micro-organisms resulting in up to 99% oxygen transfer efficiency, as no oxygen is lost to atmosphere.
