Evaluating Aeration Technology for Radon Removal
Spray jet aeration, packed‐tower aeration, and multistaged bubble aeration were evaluated for removal of radon from water. It was found that spray jet aeration was limited to ≤75 percent radon removal, but packed‐tower aeration and multistaged bubble aeration were observed to be very effective and flexible for removing this radioactive gas. Removal efficiency of the packed tower was largely a function of packing height. The current design of multistaged bubble aeration probably limits the system to wells with capacities of 800 gpm or less.
