The Helixor Diffuser works by introducing fine air bubbles into the wastewater, significantly increasing the surface area for oxygen transfer. This process enhances the aerobic digestion of organic matter, promoting the breakdown of contaminants and improving overall water quality.
The Helixor Coarse Bubble Diffusers are installed on the concrete floor of the basin and are submerged in the water. They have no moving mechanical parts, making them simple and reliable.
The Helixor consists of a 12-inch polypropylene (PP) tube made up of several components, including a central helix (spiral) element that divides the tube into two sections.
At the bottom of the tube, compressed air is introduced through two small openings, one on each side of the helix. As the air rises inside the tube, it creates small bubbles and forces the water to flow.
The water and air move through a winding spiral path, which increases the contact time between the bubbles and the water. This turbulence ensures that maximum oxygen is transferred into the water.
Most of the oxygen transfer happens within the Helixor, but as the air and water leave the tube, they form a strong upward jet. This movement pulls more water along and brings additional oxygen to the water surface as the bubbles rise.
Further oxygen transfer occurs as the water spreads outward from the jet, helping oxygenate the surrounding water.

Our Helixor Coarse Bubble Diffuser is made from high-quality, durable materials to ensure reliable performance.
