AERATION AND BLOWERS
Sixty percent of the typical wastewater treatment plant electrical usage is for aeration (five times its closest competitor, pumping, at twelve percent). Proper aeration and blower selection is arguably one of the most important considerations at a wastewater plant. What type of blower is best for the customer? (centrifugal, PD or turbo). What is the effective life of a diffuser and are there differences? What is the effective oxygen transfer efficiency over the life of the diffusers? (often overlooked in favor of initial OTE). WE carry a full line of blowers, diffusers and mechanical aeration equipment and can help you select, size and layout the equipment for the most effective use of the end user's hard earned dollars. WE know aeration technologies.

Blowers
Proper air supply to your system is critical. Selection of the proper technology for your application is just as important. Capital cost, operational costs, maintenance considerations, and air flow ranges are a few of the considerations that need to be made. WE can help you make the determination of the most appropriate technology for your installation. Read More about blowers.... Diffusers
Coarse, medium or fine bubble. Stainless steel, EPDM, teflon coated. Tube or Disc. Maintenance considerations, longevity and operational costs, and long term oxygen transfer efficiency (not intial OTE). Removable grid or fixed beds. WE have the knowledge to help you select the most appropriate diffusers for your system. WE can supply tank layouts and calculations for your basins and provide complete air systems. Read More about diffusers... Mechanical Aeration
Lagoons, Activated Sludge, Flow retention basins, SBR's and digesters. Jet, Floating, wall mount, bottom fixed and bridge mounted. Mechanical aeration (and mixing) technologies still have a solid place and application in the water/wastewater industry. WE can help find the best technology for your application.
