Oxygen-Enrichment Oxyplus works with a comparatively low pressure difference (max. 0.1 bar). Oxy- gen-poor water is drawn in and mixed intensively with the pure oxygen which has been introduced. An increase in the surface area of the medium is obtained by mixing and oxygen is taken up. By this means, other gases (e. g. Nitrogen) will also be driven out. These gases escape through the ventilation pipe of the appa- ratus with a minimal amount of oxygen. Water supported by Oxyplus can be en riched by 4-10 mg/ltr.
