PlasmaConnect™

Compact oxidation system

PlasmaConnect™ is a modular, ready-to-use oxidation system for drinking water and wastewater treatment based on innovative C-ION™ technology. It uses non-thermal plasma (NTP) for advanced oxidation of water pollution using ionised air.

It is already being used successfully in wastewater and drinking water treatment as well as in water reuse applications. Thanks to its high efficiency, easy integration and broad effectiveness against a wide range of pollutants, C-ION™ sets new standards in modern water treatment.

The technology is based on the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by dielectric barrier discharge (DBE) in ambient air – without the need for complex supply air treatment. These ROS have a high oxidation potential and enable the effective degradation of organic and inorganic pollutants. These include drug residues, hormones, pesticides, herbicides, dyes and humic substances, as well as metals such as iron, manganese and arsenic. The process also has a disinfecting effect.

The NTP is introduced into the water to be treated either through a submerged turbine or through external blowers and a floor-mounted aeration system (diffusers). The modular design allows existing plants to be retrofitted easily, regardless of plant size or application.

Applications
