The flow forms are aerator units. In the data we have, unfortunately o=
nly replicated one time so not publishable from a scientific point of view,=
each time the water went through a single flow form, the increase in oxyge=
n in the water was 0.5 mg/L. If you knew the oxygen demand of your prep, y=
ou could then figure out the number of flow forms needed to keep the prep a=
