as well● Maintenance free
● Greatly improved durability

Cavitation eﬀect generates
nano-bubbles.

Fluid carrier

All material is swept up,
without ﬂuid bed accumulation.

Sweeps up water andsludge, so there s no sludge
accumulation on the bottom!!

*See video on our website※Treatment with biological carrier agent requires large amounts of oxygen,meaning Aquablaster is necessary.

Now even more powerful with 100% aerobic
respiration and powerful convections stirring
plus biological carrier agent!
What s the secret behind superior water treatment?

▲

By facilitating 100% aerobic-respiration
metabolism of microorganisms,
Aquablaster maximizes biological breakdown
capacity.

In biology terms, this is a very simple
process, but there are astonishingly few
apparatuses and pieces of equipmentthat capitalize on this phenomenon.

An unpleasant odor indicates that microorganisms metabolism is weak.

When oxygen is rapidly consumed, theenvironment becomes bereft of oxygen andrespiration of other substances such as
sulfur ions begins. This is known asanaerobic respiration, which generates
byproducts such as hydrogen sulﬁde.

When sulfur ions start to be consumed as
w ell, the pr ocess tur ns t o anaer obic
fermentation and putrefactive gases suchas acetic acid, butyric acid, and propionicacid gas are generated.

Aquablaster facilitates the aerobic
respiration of microorganisms for eﬃcientwater treatment without putrefaction.

Water treatment eﬀective

Poor metabolic eﬃciency indicates thateﬀective water treatment is not taking place.

Outstanding performance, unthinkable withconventional water puriﬁcation systems.
Aquablaster facilitates 100% aerobic respiration and powerful vertical stirring inside the tank, producing the following eﬀects.

① Maximizes the degradation capacity of microorganisms, for extremely
powerful breakdown of oil and other substances.
(Maximum metabolism = One unit of glucose → 38 units of ATP generated)② Absolutely no generation of foul odors from hydrogen sulﬁde, etc.
③ When discharging to sewer systems, no activated sludge is used, only
suspended solids below the acceptable discharge limit. No need for sludge
treatment (some exceptions may apply depending on the type of wastewater).
④ Aquablaster sweeps up water from bottom for minimal sludge accumulation
Preliminary tests are conducted on site at your facility, determining the length oftime required for treatment, and preliminary investigation (no costs borne bycustomer except for measuring expenses), so you can use our product with conﬁdence.
Preliminary veriﬁcation and a 15-year track record have given us a 100% success rate.

We 100% guarantee odor-free wastewater!

Equipped with Aquablaster, which employs nano-bubbles andpowerful stirring convection for unbeatably eﬀective puriﬁcation of even the highest-sludge wastewater.
To maintain an optimum wastewater tank environment, it is very important to boost the metabolic rateof microorganisms
aerobic respiration. By applying a special class of circulating aeration to thewastewater tank, Aquablaster dissolves and puriﬁes with maximum speed and eﬀectiveness.

Circulating convection-current aeration system

Sludge accumulates on bottom,
turning environment anaerobic.

Oxygen is distributed throughout entire tank,preventing sludge accumulation on bottom.

Common misconceptions！
！
The important thing is not
the type of microorganisms,
but the microorganisms metabolism.
People often talk about which kinds of microorganisms
are good for wastewater treatment, but in fact, no matter
how powerful the dissolution capabilities of microorganisms are, these microorganisms will be unable to generateenergy without suﬃcient oxygen. That means they won t
fulﬁll their true potential. (See comic) Microorganisms only
exhibit their true dissolution capabilities when they have
suﬃcient oxygen for an aerobic-respiration metabolism.
