Micro bubble project

alexytman · Apr 30, 2019

Hi guys, I'm currently going to do an experiment with skimmers by lowering the salinity (as we know bubbles are smaller in saline water)then compare the difference in waste collected. It's going to be a report for a project so I am going to have a controlled environment where I add controlled substances. I'm thinking of adding amino acids as waste the sample waste. Have any ideas? Also it would be great if you could link me to some pdf papers on microbubbles and water treatment sites. Stuff like how and why hydrophobic substances are allowed to be extracted because of the bubbles.

Many thanks!

I love this forum...

How in the world do u guys come up with ideas like this... And more importantly, where do you find the time to run experiments like this?
