The Galletta Aerator ...
The Galletta Aerator is a new type of aerator based on the principles of Henry’s Law. Henry’s Law states At a constant temperature, the amount of a given gas that dissolves in a given type and volume of liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas in equilibrium with that liquid.
Designed, patented and built by Robby J. Galletta of Savannah GA, the Galletta Aerator has been developed for the purpose of treating hypoxia or oxygen depletion in water that has been depleted by natural means or by man made stresses in sewage treatment plants, rivers, lakes, reservoirs or ponds.
Testing has proven to be effective in a waste water treatment plant utilizing 12 traditional aerators. Each of the standard aerators utilize a 20hp electric motor creating a very large electric bill for the treatment facility. The Galletta Aerator was able to take the place of 5 standard aerators and complete the task of oxygenating the water in 1/10 of the time. The implications of adopting this new method of aeration will save municipalities and treatment facilities millions of dollars.
The Test 5 Plant Aerators VS. 1 Galletta Aerator
[edit]Upon entering the water for crucial testing, it was found that the aerator was putting oxygen back at an astonishing rate, far surpassing the expectations of the inventor and plant operators at the testing facility. At which point it was decided to put the Galletta Aerator to the ultimate test for a new design. It was suggested by one of the plant operators that 5 of the regular aerators be shut down to see how much O2 the Galletta Aerator could put back into the depleted water in their absence. The 5 Venturi Airjammers were shut down on the previous night to testing and upon start up of the Galletta Aerator it was assumed that measurement would not be of any value until at least later on in the working day of the waste water treatment facility. Much to the surprise of all witnesses, in a mere two hours the Galletta Aerator had caught up to levels that would be expected had not the 5 Airjammers been shut down the night before and proceeded to saturate the treatment pond with readings as high as 10 PPM (parts per million) O2. Further testing is being done in Savannah, Ga. Plant operators are in agreement that this machine operating at 40% could be the most efficient aerator in the world.
