PARTIALLY SUBMERGED FOAM FRACTIONATION SYSTEM
The present disclosure relates to devices, systems, and methods for using foam fractionation to remove non-polar waste molecules, including, but not limited to, sewage bacteria, environmental contaminants, and/or sediment/turbidity caused by dredging activities, from open-water aquatic environments. Some foam fractionation systems disclosed herein generally include a plurality of partially submerged foam fractionation devices, each foam fractionation device including a foam collection reservoir positioned above a waterline and a reaction chamber positioned at least partially below the waterline. In some embodiments, the partially submerged foam fractionation device is supported by a base structure, such as a barge, boat, skiff, or the like. In other embodiments, the partially submerged foam fractionation device is a free-floating device.
