Plant Agriculture
At Advanced Treatment Technologies, we design systems that are tailored to your specific crop needs to ensure maximum yield and robust plant development. A well oxygenated root zone naturally eliminates Pythium & Phytophthora, and allows more efficient nutrient uptake. That just scratches the surface on the benefits of this technology.
For the last 25 years we have designed and manufactured systems for hydroponic, aeroponics, aquaponics, and more! Let us know how we can help you on your next project!
Benefits of Dissolved Oxygen for Plants
Increased Root Function & Disease Resistance
Higher levels of dissolved oxygen in the irrigation water promote better root respiration. This helps roots to absorb nutrients and water more efficiently, leading to healthier and more robust root systems.
Oxygen-rich environments inhibit the growth of harmful anaerobic pathogens that thrive in low-oxygen conditions. This helps in reducing root diseases such as root rot and other fungal infections.
Increased Plant Growth
Adequate DO in irrigation water supports faster and healthier plant growth. It promotes cell division and elongation, resulting in stronger stems, more foliage, and higher overall biomass.
Better Stress Tolerance
Plants irrigated with oxygenated water are more resilient to various stress factors, including drought, salinity, and temperature fluctuations. Improved oxygen availability helps plants recover faster from stress and maintain their growth and productivity.
Comparison
So often in the search for better solutions to help us grow healthier better producing plants, we look at many technologies and attempt to compare the strengths of one vs the others. We often tell people that there are very few “bad” technologies but there are many good technologies that are mis-applied. This creating a losing situation for both the customer and the company that sold an otherwise good technology into the wrong application. We want our potential customers to have a realistic understanding about what our technology is able to accomplish so that both the customer and our company come out of the relationship with our goals achieved. The following chart was made for that reason, to help you reach an understanding of each ones capabilities. We look forward to providing science based answers to any questions you may have after reviewing the comparison .
Projects
Advanced Treatment Technologies has the experience to handle projects of all shapes and sizes. Our team off professionals has worked on projects ranging from 5-6,000 gpm, and we are proud to have left a positive impact on the facilities we serve.
Testimonial
Increased Microbial Activity
Beneficial soil microorganisms, such as those involved in nutrient cycling and decomposition, thrive in oxygen-rich environments. This boosts soil health and fertility, providing a better growing medium for plants.
Increased Yields
Overall, the combined effects of better nutrient uptake, healthier roots, and improved stress tolerance result in higher crop yields and better quality produce.
Problems with High DO
Adding high levels of DO to your irrigation water not only promotes plant growth, but also increases biofilm growth in irrigation lines. If you don’t address the biofilm growth, the benefits of DO are overshadowed by nuisance biofilm.
At ATT we have a Clean-in-Place setting on our equipment that sterilizes your pipes in between irrigation cycles with high levels of Ozone. Allowing you to enjoy the benefits of optimal DO without the mechanical disruption of biofilm.
