Quotes

\\u201cNanobubbles have a unique property, different from micro and macro bubbles. They attract certain chemicals like oils, surfactants, fats, and grease. When these tiny bubbles burst, they release the energy that breaks apart these complex compounds.\\u201d - John Crisman

"Our company and our technology actually work to partially oxidize these types of chemicals before they get to the biological process, breaking them down to a level where they\'re no longer toxic and instead, they\'re actually food for the biological process." - \\xa0 John Crisman

\\u201cWith water scarcity we have to deal with these chemicals and not just dilute them. The increased concentrations of waste is going up in industrial facilities as they recycle more of their own water and use less. So really, we have to come up with a solution.\\u201d\\xa0 - John Crisman

\\u201c Bring in your community. Bring them into your\\xa0 waste water treatment plant to see what\'s going on and partner with them to reduce surfactants.\\u201d - John Crisman

Periodic Water Table With James McDonald

The molecular formula for magnesium hydroxide is Mg(OH)2. That\\u2019s one magnesium atom and two oxygen-hydrogen or hydroxyl groups. How does this compare to sodium hydroxide? In what form is magnesium hydroxide available? What color is it? How do you get magnesium hydroxide into solution?\\xa0 How much mixing does it need?\\xa0 What are its uses in industrial water treatment?\\xa0 Why would one use magnesium hydroxide over sodium hydroxide, lime, or other similar chemistries?\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0
