Iran Equips 2nd Biggest Hydroponic Greenhouse with Nanobubble System


The second largest hydroponic greenhouse in Iran was equipped with a nanobubble system made by a knowledge-based company.

“This greenhouse with an area of ​​25 hectares, the second largest hydroponic greenhouse in Lorestan, Iran, is dedicated to tomato cultivation, and with the installation of the nanobubble system, the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water of this greenhouse has reached 15 ppm,” said Hossein Kazzerouni, the managing director of the knowledge-based ‘Seraj’ company.

“At present, in many provinces like Tehran, Alborz, Mazandaran, Ardabil, Golestan, Khuzestan, Kerman, and Isfahan, the nanobubble technology of Seraj company is used in greenhouses,” he added.

Kazzerouni explained that application of nanobubbles in the water used in greenhouses has two benefits, adding, “The first benefit is that the nanobubble increases the dissolved oxygen in the water, and the second benefit is that it reduces the size of the oxygen in the water so that it can be easily absorbed by the plant roots.”

“By doing this, the amount of harvested product increases. The consumption of fungicides is greatly reduced and the amount of pathogens in the root area is also decreased. On the other hand, the amount of algae and biological compounds in the water pipes reaches the minimum possible amount and finally, the quality of the product improves,” he noted.

In a relevant development in April, the managing director of an Iranian knowledge-based company active in the field of nanotechnology also said that the company’s experts had applied a nanobubble system for the agricultural and aquatic industries.

“We produce and commercialize the nanobubble system which settles one of the most important challenges of industries involved with gas and fluids. Some industries deal with mixing gas in liquids, for which the nanobubble system can be a solution,” said Aref Dadgostar.

He explained that in the field of agriculture, the company’s focus is on greenhouse irrigation, where they can increase the amount of oxygen in the irrigation water with the nanobubble system which improves the root structure, adding that the absorption of nutrients by the root is higher with this method and the plant will grow more efficiently quantitatively and qualitatively.

“In the aquatic sector, we can inject oxygen into the water with the highest efficiency with this system and distribute oxygen throughout the pool; therefore, the fish do not have the stress of absorbing oxygen in the water and have a better life in the pool which will increase the production three times,” Dadgostar said.
