Optimise aquaculture health with protein skimmers
Our protein skimmers are efficient and ready to use, with applicational use in aquaculture, aquaria and wastewater facilities. Microbubbles injected by the venturi drives ensure capture and removal of excess proteins in the treated water column to provide high water quality.
Treating water
Our protein skimmers can be installed in a wide range of aquaculture facilities and are currently used to treat water in salt- and freshwater RAS and model trout farm systems, inlet water for flow through systems and as end of pipe treatment in fish processing plants. The simple design allows for easy setup.
Other features include:
- Non corrosive plastic materials
- Individual venturi drives designed for both fresh- and saltwater applications
- Ready for ozone injection
- Large foam chamber ensures foam to collapse resulting in low water use for backwash
- Time or sensor controlled backwash system
- 7 sizes readily available
- Custom made skimmers on request, designed for desired flow and contact time
- Produced in Germany
Suited for ozone
Our protein skimmer models are suited with ozone injection points, off gas ventilation for treatment of excess ozone gas and a loop re-injecting degassed ozone from the foam chamber. Ozone improves coagulation and foam formation in the protein skimmer.
Working principle
The working principle of the protein skimmer is applying the physical and chemical properties of microscopic air bubbles to bind and entrap dissolved protein and particles. As low density foam rises to the chimney of the protein skimmer, the particles bound in the foam will exit the water column and is collected for final treatment.
