| 1991 | Invention patented by Hans Schmidt on October 29th, 1991. Abstract: An apparatus for injecting compressed air into a liquid comprises a tubular basic body such as a pipe that is surrounded by a perforated membrane through which air is distributed into wastewater and is connected to the nipple of a compressed air supply through a hollow and cylindrical member that transfers compressed air to the space between the membrane and the tubular basic body and also has a passageway for wastewater so that wastewater can flow through the tubular basic body, thereby avoiding stagnant areas of untreated wastewater. |
