At least 37.5 liters (9.9 U.S. gal) of seawater per minute would have to be passed through the system, but this system would not work in anoxic water. Seawater in tropical regions with abundant plant life contains 6–8 mg (0.093–0.123 gr) of oxygen per liter of water. [4] These calculations are based on the dissolved oxygen content of water.
