Abstract

OxTube, a new water treatment innovation clarifies water matrices in tube condition with nature respect within seconds. It can be integrated in ships and other watercrafts. The seas suffer low oxygen, algae, toxins and micro plastics. A cargo ship can clarify sea water 288 000 m3 a day in depth of 4 to 5 meter when cruising without additional fuel consumption.

OxTube generates huge amount of air bubbles along with water clarification. Mixture of air bubbles and water is coherent and viscosity up to ten times lower than water. It can be led under the cruising ship in order to reduce flow resistance and fuel consumption. All kinds of combined processing is economically and environmentally beneficial. According to MIT Group combined energy and water system could provide for millions.
