Re: [compost_tea] Pumps and Aerob-a-jet



0.22 CFM  - if there is a majic way to make that much air do 250 gallons I'm interested.  I think it is trying to get something for nothing.  If .22 cfm is being injected as micro bubbles that stay in the water does that add .22 CFM to the volume of the TEA?   Is that air going to be used by microbes?  If so what is the rate of O2 used?  What is left?  An oxide?  CO2?  If ALL the O2 added at .22cfm went into the water is that enough to feed the critters at the rate needed in 250 g?   Micro bubbles may be better in some ways but even if 100% perfect, the math at .22 cfm doesn't work for me.   Bob
