Protein skimming is a way of physical water treatment. It uses a phenomenon known

from our daily experience: the adsorption of surface active substances to air water

layers. If we give a drop of oil on a water surface, it will form a thin film with a

thickness of only one molecule. Surface active compounds like proteins behave in

the same way. The Turboflotor 1000 with its air bubbles creates a huge water

surface, where the waste substances can attach to.

These air bubbles are pushed into the reacton pipe, in a way, that they have a long

retention time in the counter current. Enriched with organic substances, they rise to

the top and form a strong foam, that is dehydrated and pushed into the collection

cup. With this method, organic waste can be removed from the aquarium water -

before they are integrated into the biological waste treatment cycle.
