Bubble curtains, a sustainable technology
for environmental protection💧

Bubble curtains are a simple and cost-efficient technology that has been adopted by industries worldwide to meet a broad range of marine challenges. Read on to discover how bubble curtains work and their positive effects on marine ecosystems.

How Do Bubble Tubing® Curtains Work?

The bubble curtain effect is created by injecting compressed air into the
Bubble Tubing® diffuser installed at the bottom of water. This forms a flexible and continuous barrier of bubbles rising to the surface. The debris deflection, sediment containment, and sound attenuation properties of the curtain depend on the volume of air injected, the size of the bubbles, and the number of diffuser lines installed. For maximum protection, double or even triple configurations are recommended depending on the objectives of each project.

5 Ways Bubble Curtains Protect the Environment

Underwater Sound Attenuation🐠 Bubbles are naturally sound absorbent! Bubble curtains can be tuned to attenuate both high- and low-frequency sound waves produced by marine construction activities to meet local environmental standards.

Sediment & Silt Control🌊
Installing a bubble curtain for sediment retention is an effective, fast solution for containing suspended particles produced by dredging, pile driving or blasting in marine construction areas.

Oil Spill Management⛽ 
Bubble curtains can serve as an effective containment barrier in the event of hydrocarbon spills located in ports or marinas.

Control of Toxic Algae & Jellyfish🌿 Bubble curtains using Bubble Tubing® technology create an even screen of dense bubbles that limits the entry of algae, plankton and jellyfish within a given perimeter.

Control of Plastic Debris🥤
Because our bubble curtains impact
the entire water column, they are very effective at intercepting and gathering drifting plastic waste and debris in
rivers and canals before it can end up
at sea, where it is difficult—if not nearly impossible—to capture effectively.
