    Abstract: Gas diffusion elements, formed of a body of solid particles which has been shaped, pressed and rendered coherent by bonding or sintering in a compacted form having pores, and having an enhanced apparent volumetric compression ratio in a central zone thereof, are disclosed. Such elements have a generally horizontal portion including an upper gas discharge surface having a bubble release pressure in water, by a test disclosed herein, in the range of about 2 to about 20 inches of water. Among the preferred embodiments is an element whose gas discharge surface has the property that its coefficient of variation is not greater than about 0.25, based on the values of bubble release pressure at a plurality of points over said surface. Such elements may provide improved gas, e.g. oxygen, transfer efficiency, and therefore hold promise of improving the efficiency and economics of gas transfer processes, such as for instance treatment of sewage or other waste water with air, oxygen and/or ozone.

    Abstract: The disclosure relates to obtaining dynamic wet pressure in a wastewater treatment plant. A difusser submerged in wastewater is connected to an air supply. This diffuser has an air flow regulator, a diffusion element to discharge the air into the wastewater, and a plenum situated between the element and the flow regulator. Pressure taps sense pressure in the pipe and the plenum. Manometers are used to determine hydrostatic head, pressure drop across the element, and pressure drop across the air flow regulator. Air flow regulator pressure drop and pressure/flow characteristics may be used, with other required information, to calculate dynamic wet pressure across the diffusion element.

    Abstract: Gas diffusion elements, formed of a body of solid particles which have been shaped, pressed and rendered coherent by bonding or sintering in a compacted form having pores, are disclosed. Said elements include a peripheral, annular zone of relatively small proportions having lesser permeability, greater density or lesser height than at least a portion of the remainder of the element. In accordance with the invention, a boundary zone is provided adjacent to and inwardly of the peripheral zone, in which boundary zone there is a progressive increase, continuous or step-wise, in the apparent volumetric compression ratio of the element, in the direction of the pheripheral zone, or towards a vertical surface which is near the periphery of the element. Such element may provide improved gas, e.g. oxygen transfer efficiency and therefore holds promise of improving the efficiency and economics of gas transfer processes, such as for instance treatment of sewage or other waste water with air, oxygen and/or ozone.

    Abstract: Cleaning of multi-pore diffusion elements in place with cleaning gases while submerged in liquid media by applying said elements in improved gas cleaning apparatus. Such apparatus may for example include diffusion element retaining rings or other retaining devices, positioned at the peripheries of the respective elements, for securing them in gas-tight relationship with their respective plenums for preventing escape of treating and cleaning gas. Another aspect of the apparatus includes diffusers having diffusion elements with upper and lower surfaces bounded by porous peripheral sides, said diffusers also including apparatus for preventing escape of air through the element sides. In another embodiment of diffusers with diffusion elements having upper and lower surfaces bounded by peripheral sides, there are plenums comprising gas tight enclosures that enclose these lower surfaces and that include upstanding walls facing and adjacent to said sides. In yet another embodiment, upward force exerted on diffusion elements by treating gas under pressure is employed to force the elements upwardly against peripheral sealing members and overlying members of peripheral retainers to increase the sealing integrity of the sealing members.
