Feasibility of Bubble Plume Destratification of Central Lake Erie
The central basin of Lake Erie has chronic hypoxia that is exacerbated by strong seasonal temperature stratification near the lake bed. A computational study was conducted to determine the feasibility of mechanically mixing the water column by using a bubble plume system to reduce stratification, thus facilitating vertical transport of oxygen. The most efficient design delivered an air flow rate of through 40–50 non-interacting plumes, which only mix the watercolumn during the late summer hypoxic events. The optimal efficiency was computed using a new metric, which neglects changes in stratification resulting from meteorologically induced mixing, relative to those from artificial mixing.
