In this episode we explore the multifaceted applications of nanobubbles across a range of
environmental and industrial sectors - from enhancing aquaculture health by addressing infections
like sea lice to improving water quality through the extended half-life of ozone in nanobubble form,
the utility of nanobubbles is proving to be exceptionally wide-ranging.
We see how in the oil and gas industry, nanobubbles facilitate more efficient oil and gas extraction
by lowering the surface tension, thereby enhancing well stimulation and hydrocarbon release.
We discuss the many environmental applications, including the treatment of wastewater, where
reactive oxygen species generated by nanobubbles effectively oxidise harmful compounds, aiding in
compliance with environmental regulations.
In the realm of fuel efficiency and emissions reduction, incorporating nanobubbles into fuels can
lead to more complete combustion within engines, reducing harmful emissions.
This high-level overview captures just a glimpse of the expansive applications of nanobubbles,
underscoring their potential to innovate and enhance various industrial processes and
environmental management techniques.
The upcoming episode in the Nanobubbles 101 series will dive into the generation of nanobubbles,
addressing the challenges, innovations and the scalability of nanobubble technology.
