Why use nanobubbles for daily supply silos
Our nanobubble technology offers numerous advantages. Here are several compelling reasons to consider adopting nanobubble technology.
- Increased nutrient uptake
- Improves root development
- Better resistance to environmental factors
- Stimulates positive bacteria and fungi
- Reduces stress in the plant
Our recommendation for daily supply silos
For dosing nanobubbles to your daily supply silos we recommend using our Triton systems. The included tank mixers ensure proper distribution throughout the silo.
When using Nanobubbles on a daily supply silo, it is important to take into account whether the nutrients and especially iron chelates will be dosed to the silo. If this is the case, the Triton system should be equipped with our O2Solutions maintenance free built-in dissolved oxygen regulator, which maximises the oxygen level in the silo to prevent over dosing and interference with fertilisers.

Capacity nanobubble generator
It is important that the nanobubble generator has enough capacity for dosing nanobubbles to your daily supply silo. A single Triton system for a daily supply silo can handle a volume of 400 – 500 m³.
To determine the correct capacity of the Triton system, we recommend having it calculated by our experts. Contact us if you need help with calculating the correct capacity.

We recently supplied the following companies with a nanobubble generator for their daily supply silo.
Installation of a nanobubble generator at a daily supply silo
The Triton system is delivered completely assembled including all PVC fittings required for mounting on a daily supply silo. Delivery consists of:
- Triton nanobubble generator
- Bracket incl. PVC couplings for mounting the pipework on the edge of the daily supply silo.
- Suction and tank mixer for ideal mixing of the nanobubbles is the silo.
- As a customer, you only need to provide 50 mm PVC pipe yourself.
The nanobubble generator is already factory set and ready to be commissioned in no time to your daily supply silo.
Maintenance nanobubble generator
The unique design of O2Solutions ensures that the system is maintenance-free during use, no chemical cleaning of the generator is required as is common with other systems on the market.
The only maintenance consists of annual maintenance of the oxygen concentrator. This is coordinated and carried out for you via our service departments in the Netherlands and Canada.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How many ppm dissolved oxygen in the water?
We recommend keeping a value between 15 and 20 ppm to get the optimal result.
What if too many nanobubbles are dosed?
If fertilisers are also dosed to the daily supply silo, the DO reading on the Nanobubbles system should not be set above 17ppm to avoid reaction with iron chelate.
What kind of prefiltration?
Technically, the Triton needs a pre-filtration of 1,000 microns to protect the device, but for the optimal performance of nanobubbles, a pre-filtration of at least 40-60 microns is advised.
Does every cultivation type require the same dosage of nanobubbles?
Broadly speaking, yes, with the exception of crops with a high organic load in the water, in which case the dosage should be higher.
What are important considerations for proper operation?
- Make sure all supply lines entering the silo are below the water level, this gives higher efficiency, falling water causes nanobubbles to explode.
- Make sure the intake line of the irrigation unit is properly sized and does not pull too much vacuum, as vacuum pulling causes the nanobubbles to explode to larger bubbles and come out of the water.
