The arrival of fEPDM on the scene as an alternative for wastewater 
diffusers marks a big step forward for aeration:

Featured product: fEPDM membranes
------------------------------------------------------

SSI has developed a series of fEPDM membranes for use in wastewater 
aeration.  These membranes take the flexibility of standard EPDM rubber 
and add even better fouling resistance and greater durability.  In some 
recent testing, fEPDM was shown to retain 30% more of its plasticizer 
content than standard EPDM after extremely aggressive testing -- far 
more abuse than the same diffusers will likely ever encounter in any 
practical application.  That means a longer service life and better 
performance over the long term.
