A diffusor and a method for evacuating water from a diffusor and a method for cleaning or disinfecting a diffusorThe invention relates to a device for adding of gases into water, in particularly the invention relates to a diffusor with a perforated tube with inner supply tubes for supplying of gases. The invention also relates to a method for quick evacuating of water from the device and/or system for disinfection of the device.A diffusor for supplying of gases could have several range of use. For instance farm ing of aqua cultural organisms for instance fish. A diffusor for supplying gases could also be used in sewage treatment, supplying of oxygen in lakes but also other water treatment arrangement.Aquaculture farming of food is a growing industry that is striving to satisfy a growing market for protein based food, for instance fish. There are different methods for growing the protein based food such as fish, like outdoors in open ponds or net cage in seawater or fresh water, or indoor tanks.The growth of the fish or protein based food must satisfy the conditions necessary to remain health and grown. The farmed organisms need for instance a continuous supply of dean water at correct temperature, sufficient oxygen and food.Successful production depends on good oxygen management. The addition of oxygen in a pure form or as air is essential to sufficient growth, good feed conversion ratio and the survival at a low oxygen level will reduce growth, increase the susceptibility of the farmed organisms to diseases and parasites,The addition of oxygen or air could also be used in the delousing of the fish.Adding of oxygen or other gases is especially important in tanks where the density of the farmed organisms is high.Other examples where supplying of gases to water are applied are sewage treatment of wastewater or supplying of oxygen in lakes or ponds.Wastewater treatment can be based upon chemical or biological treatment and both technologies are relevant for adding gases to achieve the desired results.Publication WO03024578 discloses a device for use in aquaculture installations, which enables oxygen to be added in the form of micro-bubbles in large amounts, to seawater in open cage installations. The device consists of a perforated tube for oxygen supply and at least one perforated tube for oxygen distribution, the perforated tube for oxygen supply is arranged at the inside of the perforated tube for oxygen distribution.A disadvantage of the known solution is that the arrangement is complex in that both tubes must be perforated to distribute the oxygen and that the space between the two perforated tubes are divided into chambers.The perforated tube for oxygen supply could also clog over time and are difficult to dean. It is also necessary for the inner perforated tube to have lesser number of perforations than the outer perforated tube.Contrary to beliefs, tests made by the applicant have shown that there is no need to supply the oxygen very evenly within the distribution tube.The present invention is advantageous over the above prior art in that the tubes for oxygen supply arranged within the tube for oxygen distribution, is a tube without perforations and is therefore a simpler solution to distribute oxygen.Other and further objects, features and advantages will appear from the following description of preferred embodiments of the invention, which are given for the purpose of description, and given in context with the appended drawings.The invention relates to a method for evacuating water from or disinfect a diffusor, said diffusor comprising a perforated tube and at least one supply tube, said at least one supply tube is in fluid communication with the perforated tube through at least two outlets arranged within the perforated tube, said one of the at least two outlets is arranged substantially at a first end of the perforated tube.

Figure 1 shows a principle drawing of the diffusor with two inner tubes with different length.Figure 3 shows a principle drawing of the connection between the supply tube and the diffusor tube with inner tubes. Figure 4 shows the connection between supply tube and diffusor from figure 3. Figure 5 shows a coupling between the supply tube and diffusor with an opening for adding gas or oxygen. Figure 6 shows an embodiment of the invention with only one inner tube.Figure 8 shows the connection between the supply tube and the perforated rubber tube as shown in Figure 6 and 7. Figure 9 shows a principle drawing of another embodiment of the invention where there are arranged supply tubes and inner tubes in both ends of the tube. Figure 10 shows a principle drawing of another possible embodiment of the invention with a pressure valve in the end of the diffusor.Figure 12 is a principle drawing of several diffusors arranged in the net cage.In figure 1 it is shown a diffusor according to a preferred embodiment of the invention comprising a perforated tube 1. The perforated tube 1 is cylinder shaped with multiple openings on the periphery of the tube 1. The perforated tube is preferably made of rubber, but could also be made of other materials suitable for the use of the perforated tube 1, such as other plastic/polymer materials. The tube 1 could be a hose or a pipeline. In general the term "tube"The perforated tube 1 is in a first end 1 a adapted to be connected to one end of a supply tube 2 through a coupling 3.It is also a possible embodiment of the invention that the perforated tube 1 and the supply tube 2 is made of one continuous tube divided into a perforated part 1 and a supply part 2. In this embodiment there are no connection between the parts. The perforated tube 1 will in the following also cover the meaning perforated part. Likewise, the supply tube 2 described, will also include an interpretation that the supply tube could be a part of a tube. The supply tube 2 is in the other end connected to an arrangement for supplying of a gas, for instance a pressure tank of compressed air, a tank for liquid oxygen or a compressor for supply of oxygen or gas (not shown). The gas could for instance be oxygen or air.At the inside of the perforated tube 1, there is arranged a short inner supply tube 4 and a long inner supply tube 5. These inner supply tubes 4, 5 are extending from the supply tube 2 and the pressure tank to a suitable position in the perforated tube 1. The inner supply tubes 4, 5 are located abreast to each other at the inside of the perforated tube 1. The inner supply tubes 4, 5 outlets 4a, 5a at the free ends of the inner supply tubes 4, 5 extending away from the supply tube 2. The inner supply 4, 5 tubes have different length, so that the gas is released into the perforated tube 1 at different locations. The free end of the short supply tube 4 is located doser to the coupling 3 and the supply tube 2 than the free end of the long inner supply tube 5. Figure 2 show s section view of the diffusor 10 shown in Figure 1. In the figure, the outlet 4a of the short inner supply tube 4 is shown. The long inner supply tube 5 has resembling configuration but an outlet 5a at the free end of the inner supply tube 5 that is situated further away from the coupling 3 and the supply tube 2 than the short inner supply tube 4. Figure 3 shows the coupling 3 between the supply tube 2 and the perforated tube 1. The coupling 3 is cylinder shaped and is connected to the ends of the supply tube 2 and the perforated tube 1. The coupling 3 is covering one end of the supply tube 2 and one end of the perforated tube 1 to connect the ends together. The supply tube 2 could be made of rubber or other materials suitable for the purpose of the tube 2. The coupling 3 in the figure is made of metal, but this is not limiting to the invention. Other couplings of other materials or other shapes could be use. This coupling 3 being a possible embodiment of the invention.The short inner supply tube 4 and the long inner supply tube 5 are extending from the supply tube 2 to the perforated tube 1 at the inside of the supply tube 2 and the perforated tube 1. There are arranged a first plug 6 in the end of the supply tube2 facing the perforated tube 1. The first plug 6 håving one or more openings, usually circular, adapted to enclose an inlet 4b, 5b of each of the inner supply tubes 4, 5. The tube is preferably made of rubber, but other materials are possible. The first plug 6 could also be made of a material that is injected in the supply tube 2, for instance polymer material or a glue-likeFigure 4 shows the positioning of the first plug 6 in detail. The first plug 6 håving a circular outer shape that adjoins the inner surface of the supply tube 2. The first plug 6 has openings 6a, 6b that accommodates the inlet of inner supply tubes 4b, 5b. The purpose of the first plug 6 is to create a first plug or seal between the supply tube 2 and the perforated tubel so that the gas is supplied only through the inner supply tubes 4, 5 or plug outlet 17 and prevents other leakage from the supply tube to the perforated tube 1. Figure 5 shows another possible embodiment of the invention. In this figure there is arranged a first plug 16 with a different shape. This plug 16 has an additional opening or outlet 17 situated next to the openings 6a, 6b for the inner supply tube 4, 5. In this embodiment, gas, air or oxygen could be supplied into the diffusor from the two inner tubes 4, 5 and the outlet 17 in the rubber plug 16. Thereby, the gas or oxygen is supplied to the perforated tube 1 at three different locations at the inside of the perforated tube 1. Figure 6 to figure 8 shows another embodiment of the invention where there is only one inner supply tube 5 in the perforated tube 1. A rubber plug 26 in this embodiment has only one opening for the inner supply tube 5 and one outlet 17. The gas or oxygen could then be supplied into the diffusor 10 at two different locations inside the perforated tube 1 through the outlet 17 and the inner supply tube 5. In figure 7 and 8 it is illustrated that the inner supply tube 5 is situated at the inside of the perforated tube 1.The choice of embodiment from the three above, depends greatly on the length of diffusor required. The longer the diffusor is, the greater the number of locations for the supply of oxygen should be.There could also be different shapes and diameters of the perforated tube 1 or the inner supply tubes 4, 5, 15 which are essential for the number of inner supply tubes in the diffusor. The diameter and shapes of the perforated tube can be adapted to accommodate to the required number of inner tubes 4, 5, 15.A large diameter of the perforated tube 1 will allow that there are more inner supply tubes 4, 5 arranged at the inside of the perforated tube 1 than if the diameter of the perforated tube 1 is small.Likewise, if the inner supply tubes 4, 5, 15 håving a small diameter, there are room for more inner supply tubes 4, 5, 15 in the perforated tube than if the diameter of the inner supply tubes 4, 5, 15 are large.Figure 9 shows another embodiment of the invention. The diffusor 10 could in the opposite second end 1 b of the perforated tube 1, have a sim ilar arrangement as described in any of the figures 1 to 8 with two or three openings or outlets in the plug.In the second end 1 b of the perforated tube 1, a corresponding arrangement with a second supply tube 12 connected to at least one inner supply tube15 is arranged. The second supply tube 12 and the inner supply tube 15 are connected together through a connection 2 and a rubber plug 36 with a suitable number of openings. The rubber plug 36 is not shown in detail in the Figure but it could be arranged on the second end 1 b of the perforated tube 1 and have sim ilar shape as the plug 6, 16, 26 as shown in Figure 4, 5, 6-8.All of the different possible plugs described in Figure 1-8 could be adopted at the second end 1 b to form different embodiments of the diffusor 1. The varieties of the different plugs arrangement on the second end could be combined with the variety of the different plug 6, 16, 26 arrangements on the first end 1a to create a multiple combinations and embodiments of gas supplied in the diffusor. It is also possible to have more than two inner supply tubes 4, 5, 15 in both ends 1 a and 1 b of the perforated tube 1.Figure 10 shows another possible embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment a pressure valve 20 is connected to one end of the diffusor. This pressure valve 20 could be used in all configurations of the invention except for the principle shown in Figure 9. The pressure valve 20 replaces the arrangement with the plug 36 and the inner supply tube 15 in the second end 1 b of the diffusor 10.The function of the pressure valve 20 will now be described further. If the diffusor 10 is lowered into the water without gas pressure, the water will start to enter into the perforated tube 1. It will take some time to empty the perforated tube 1 for water with use of gas pressure. Normal operation pressure is 1 to 6 bar. The pressure valve 20 will open with a pressure more than the normal operational pressure and the water will evacuate through the pressure valve 20 when the pressure is more than e.g. 10 bar. When the diffusor is empty of water, the pressure is reduced (manually) to normal operation pressure and the diffusor will work as normal.This principle will work best if there are one plug outlet 17 and one or more inner supply tubes 4, 5 as shown in Figure 5-8. The pressure drops a little when it is led through the inner supply tubes 4, 5 caused by friction etc in the inner supply tube 4, 5. The pressure at the outlet 4a, 5a will therefore be lower than at the plug outlet 17. Since the pressure at the plug outlet 17 is higher, the water is moved in the direction from the plug outlet 17 to the valve and out to the surrounding water through this valve.The pressurized gas will push the water out of the perforated tube from the positions where the gas is pushed into the perforated tube 1. This means that the gas pushed through the outlets 4a, 5a, 17 will evacuate water out of the perforated tube 1 from the position of the outlet 4a, 5a. The water in the perforated tube 1 situated between the first end 1 a of the perforated tube 1 and the outlet 4a, 5a of the inner supply tube 4, 5 will use longer time to evacuateThe pressurized gas from the plug outlet 17 will evacuate the water from the first end of the perforated tube 1 towards the second end of the perforated tube 1b.This principle could also be used to dean or disinfect the diffusor by use of gases or disinfectant.In case of cleaning or disinfection of the diffusor, a disinfectant fluid is added to the diffusor through the supply tube 2. The disinfectant fluid is further supplied through the outlets of the plug outlet 17 and/ or the inner supply tube(s) 4, 5. Depending on the fluid and the cleaning process, the fluid could be left in the perforated tube for a suitable time to dissolve more effectively the pollutions in the diffusor.A gas I supplied to the perforated tube 1 to evacuate or press the disinfectant fluid effectively out of the diffusor.The oxygen, air or other gases from the supply tube 2 is supplied to the perforated tube 1 from outlet 17, 36 in the first plug 6 or from outlets in the inner supply tubes 4, 5, 15 arranged at the inside of the supply tube 2. The purpose of this is to achieve a uniform distribution of oxygen without using perforated tubes at the inside of the diffusor.The diffusor could be provided with several weight and float regulators so that the diffusor is held in a suitable depth in the tank or pond, if the diffusor itself is not heavy enough to sink to the desired depth. This weight is attached in a traditional way to the diffusor and is not shown in any of the drawings. The diffusor could also be provided with wire or a medium with a specific weight higher than water within the perforated tube to increase the weight of the diffusor.In Figure 11 it is shown a principle drawing of a net cage which are used for growth of fish. Several diffusors 10 are arranged parallel to each other in the net cage 50. This is an example of one possible use of the diffusor according to the invention. There are other possible uses as described earlier.Figure 12 shows the diffusor arrangement from Figure 11. The Figure shows several diffusors each håving a perforated tube 1 connected to a supply tube 2. The coupling 3 connects the perforated tube 1 and supply tube 2 together.We have discussed the present invention in terms of the preferred embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is by no means limited to the embodiments shown in Figure 1 - Figure 12 and discussed above. The present invention covers various changes and modifications within the scope and spirit recited in the appended claims.
