Moleaer's Neo and the Clear nanobubble generators easily integrate into your existing irrigation and fertigation systems to improve water quality, increase crop yields, control biofilm and pathogens, mitigate common soil/substrate issues and more.
Chemical-free nanobubble technology can be installed to treat source water from wells, canals, reservoirs and basins to reduce algae and pathogen growth, improve water quality, and reduce the use of chemicals and pesticides. Nanobubble generators can also be installed on day tanks or inline before your valve zone or irrigation sector. Moleaer’s patented nanobubble generators are easy to integrate, install, and maintain — without overhauling your irrigation system.
Our ProductsPlants thrive in soils with good structure, ample microbial activity and available nutrients to develop healthy root systems and produce quality crops. However, farmers worldwide face challenging soil conditions from drought stress, exhaustion and poor-quality irrigation water. Nanobubbles have been scientifically proven as a chemical-free solution to improve soil conditions for growers, from reducing soil compaction to increasing soil aeration, nutrient availability and uptake efficiency.
Learn MoreScientific research and independent case studies show that nanobubbles increase soil flocculation, reduce compaction and increase capillary water distribution. Nanobubbles reduce the surface tension of water, improve water infiltration and percolation through the soil profile, improve salt leaching and get more water and nutrients to the root zone where plants need it. Nanobubbles decrease the size of nutrient clusters and raise ionic mobility aiding in increased nutrient availability and uptake efficiency. Plants grown with nanobubble irrigation water have a higher resilience against stress factors, improving crop quality and reducing crop loss for farmers.
Learn MoreAvocado trees are particularly susceptible to root asphyxia, or the drowning of plant roots. Most of the world’s avocado plants are grown in clayey soil conditions with high water holding capacity. Nanobubbles help farmers address issues with clayey soils in two ways. First, nanobubbles reduce the surface tension of water improving its penetration and infiltration in soil. Second, nanobubbles increase soil flocculation, the aggregation of clay particles, which improves soil structure and infiltration.
Kapicua Research Center conducted a study on avocados grown in Chile. They installed a Moleaer nanobubble generator in an avocado orchard using drip irrigation. After one season, Kapicua saw improved vegetative tree growth and productivity and a 40% increase in fruit size. This was attributed to increased dissolved oxygen levels in the irrigation water and better infiltration through the clayey soil to the root zone.
Berries of all types are grown outdoors in soil and substrates. Blueberries require highly acidic soils, so they are often grown outdoors in pots with soil substrates. Whether grown in pots or not, berries, like blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and strawberries, require good quality irrigation water to produce high-quality fruits.
Irrigation water supersaturated with nanobubbles improves root development, boosts plant health and enhances soil structure for growing better crops. One blueberry grower in Chile deployed Moleaer’s nanobubble technology on their fertigation tank to improve growing conditions. They saw a 20% reduction in soil compaction that resulted in increased new shoot growth, improved fruit production and increased beneficial microbial activity in the soil.
Citrus orchards consist of oranges, lemons, grapefruits, pomelos and limes, with oranges accounting for more than half the global citrus output. Many citrus growers are facing increased demand amid the threat of pests and disease, drought concerns and labor shortages.
Nanobubbles prevent root diseases from developing and spreading by increasing aerobic water conditions and making the environment less favorable to pathogens. Additionally, nanobubbles prevent and control biofilm, which is pervasive on all surfaces that come in contact with water and can harbor pathogens. Growers see improved irrigation system hygiene enabling them to reduce the application of cleaning products and chemicals like hydrogen peroxide and chlorine. Citrus growers can greatly benefit from nanobubble technology in their orchards.
