Water introduces many biological challenges that may alter the effectiveness of decontamination in live aquatic animal holding facilities. Mechanical filtration of water, also called de-bulking, is useful as a first stage of liquid effluent treatment; however, a secondary treatment such as chemical, heat, gas, ozonation, irradiation, UV [ultraviolet] or other method of treatment is also necessary to ensure effective decontamination. 1, record 3, English, - liquid%20effluent%20treatment

L'eau présente de nombreux défis biologiques qui peuvent avoir une incidence sur l'efficacité de la décontamination dans les installations d’animaux aquatiques vivants. Le filtrage mécanique de l'eau – on parle également de réduction de volume – est utile au début du processus de traitement des effluents liquides. Cependant, un procédé de traitement secondaire, comme par exemple le traitement chimique ou thermique, le traitement au gaz, l'ozonisation, l'irradiation, les traitements UV [ultraviolets] ou d’autres méthodes de traitement, est nécessaire afin d’assurer une décontamination efficace. 1, record 3, French, - traitement%20d%26rsquo%3Beffluents%20liquides

Inventée dans les années soixante-dix par l'américain Jacuzzi, la balnéothérapie ou hydromassage consiste à injecter de l'air dans l'eau du bain au moyen d’injecteurs placés au fond et sur les flancs de la baignoire. Les bulles ainsi produites assurent un brassage de l'eau et en éclatant, un hydromassage sur le corps, plus ou moins énergique selon le débit d’air [...] Les modèles les plus sophistiqués de baignoires de balnéothérapie sont équipés d’appareils de commande électronique programmant la durée du bain, l'ozonisation, le cycle autonettoyant ainsi que des changements de puissance assurant un massage variable. 3, record 5, French, - baignoire%20de%20massage

Les installations à air chaud. [...] le fluide utilisé pour le transport de la chaleur est l'air. Cet air est distribué dans les locaux desservis [soit directement, soit indirectement] dont il réchauffe l'atmosphère par mélange. L'air peut être pulsé ou non; il peut aussi recevoir un traitement particulier(humidification, séchage, ozonisation). Il est traité dans des appareils spéciaux(échangeurs), dans lesquels il augmente sa température au contact de surfaces de chauffe qui sont soit alimentées par un fluide auxiliaire(eau, vapeur ou électricité) s’il s’agit d’aérothermes, soit léchées directement sur la face opposée par les gaz de combustion provenant d’un foyer propre à l'appareil dans le cas des générateurs. Les installations à air chaud peuvent donc être subdivisées : soit en chauffages à air chaud à circulation naturelle ou en chauffages à air chaud pulsé; soit en chauffages par aérothermes ou en chauffages par générateurs à foyer indépendants. 3, record 7, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20de%20chauffage%20%C3%A0%20air%20chaud
