2013~2014/January Bio Activating Bubble Experiment report

In June 2013, Anzai Kantetsu Co., LTD. installed an oxygenated nanobubble generator at the bottom of Tokyo Bay (~8m) near Yokohama's Kanazawa ward. For a period of 2.5 months, the device continually operated while our team of researchers investigated the effects of oxygenated nanobubbles on the immediate surrounding benthic environment. Throughout the duration of this research, three specific areas of inhabitance were monitored and sampled for both biological diversity and population size in respect to benthos.

1. Sample area within the nanobubble piping perimeter (henceforth referred to as the 0m point)
2. Sample area 5m away from the device
3. Sample area 30m away from the device

Control samples were taken immediately prior to the installation of the nanobubble generator and the first sampling for the experiment occurred one month after installation in early July. This sampling identified a significant increase in both population size and biodiversity at the 0m and 5m observation points. At the 30m observation point, both population size and biodiversity decreased. This decrease was expected as oceanic dissolved oxygen percentages decrease in the summer due to the increase in water temperature. This temperature increase and the resulting change in dissolved oxygen levels creates an aquatic environment that is very harsh for aerobic organisms and affects their ability to survive. Despite this regularly occurring temperature and oxygen level fluctuation, both the 0m and 5m points showed increases for both variables.

In August, a second sampling was conducted. The results for the 0m and 5m observation points showed further increases in both population size and biodiversity. The 30m results were similar to the previous month's observation.

At the end of August, operation of the oxygenated nanobubble generator was ceased and in the middle of September, the final sampling was conducted. Both the 0m and 5m observation points showed significant decreases in population size and benthos biodiversity. The 30m observation point continued to decrease, but its change was not as significant as what occurred at the 0m and 5m observation points between observation #2 and #3.

This decrease in benthos population size and biodiversity for observation #3 is a direct result of the decreased oxygen levels at the experiment's sampling points. When the water temperature is above 20°C, it becomes difficult for benthos to survive due to oxygen deprivation. By introducing oxygenated nanobubbles into the target environment, dissolved oxygen content increases creating an environment that is more suitable for benthos. Bacteria in the area is then able to more effectively break down oxygen-depleted, but nutritionally rich waste in the area resulting in an increased population. As this organism population base increase occurs, the ecological pyramid is able to gradually stabilize and recover its natural biodiversity.

At present, the most commonly utilized industry standard for sludge disposal in Japan is through physical remove from a target environment. With oxygenated nanobubbles, it is possible to not only increase the number of microorganisms that break down sludge, but also repurpose the sludge into a nutritional resource that can contribute to the local ecological pyramid. This ultimately results in an increase in the number of aquatic organism in the immediate treatment area and simultaneously helps promote a more diverse ecological food chain.
