Abstract: A system for removing a gas from a liquid comprises an aeration tank for aerating a raw liquid containing a gas to remove the gas by causing an agitated air flow through the liquid. A plurality of aeration plates placed substantially horizontally across the horizontal cross sectional plane of the tank, the aeriation plates perforated by a plurality of openings. Aerating the liquid occurs with the liquid flowing downward into the aeration tank, and an airflow flowing upward through the liquid from a point proximate to the bottom of the aeriation tank, wherein the aeriation plates are configured to impart a crisscross movement pattern in the liquid flow down and the airflow up as each passes the other to agitate and mix the flow of liquid and air.
