Aeration Systems:
Aeration is used extensively for the biological (biochemical?) oxidation of both domestic and industrial organic wastes. In wastewater treatment, the function of aeration is to introduce air into the water through the most effective and least costly methods that will increase oxygen transfer (dissolved oxygen) in the wastewater.
In diffused aeration, submerged devices release air or oxygen into the wastewater. As bubbles rise through the wastewater, oxygen is transferred from a gaseous state to a liquid state – thus adding dissolved oxygen (DO) to the water and they keep the microorganisms suspended, so they do not settle out.
Two main types of aeration systems exist — mechanical aeration and diffused aeration. Mechanical aeration operates from the surface of a tank or lagoon, whereas diffused aeration typically operates from the bottom.
Aeration performance through diffused aeration has advanced dramatically in more recent years.
To keep your plant running in peak operating condition 24/7, 365 days a year, we apply the latest in diffused aeration technology — to deliver aeration and cost efficiencies, along with unsurpassed reliability.
