  • Upgrade To Diffused Aeration Results In Significant Energy Savings

    After 35 years of use,  the fiberglass jet aeration manifolds in the Western Regional Water Reclamation Plant (Dayton, Ohio) had deteriorated, rendering four of eight wastewater aeration tanks inoperable. Managers recognized an opportunity to utilize a fine bubble diffused aeration system that eliminated the need for the pumps. The result: higher oxygen-transfer efficiency and reduced power costs to operate the system.

  • Los Alamos WWTP Gains Turndown Capability And Saves Energy With Hybrid Blowers
    7/14/2015

    Los Alamos, NM, the former site of topsecret laboratories where government scientists developed the atomic bomb during World War II, is once again a town at the forefront of new technology.

  • CAGI Data Sheets: Blower Performance Comparison Technical White Paper
    2/13/2018

    Comparing blower performances across different manufacturers and technologies has long been a difficult task. For many years, it was all too easy to present data that, although accurate, was potentially misleading. Manufacturers were selective about what information they published as well as what conditions they chose to specify performance. The result was a numbers game the buyer frequently lost. Fortunately, the Compressed Air and Gas Institute (CAGI), in cooperation with its members, has developed a tool for a fair comparison between blowers.

  • Selecting The Optimal Blower For The Water Industry
    10/10/2024

    In this white paper, we will drill down into which technology has particularly proven itself in terms of energy efficiency in the water industry.

  • Comprehensive Compressed Air Assessments: The 5-Step Process
    10/10/2024

    The objective of this paper is to define the five steps required in a compressed air assessment. We will use a real-world example with system information from a magnetic materials manufacturer to clearly illustrate each step.

What is turbo blower technology?
Energy consumption is the biggest operational cost for a blower. By choosing an energy-efficient compressed air technology, you can drastically reduce your operational costs. High speed turbo blowers are known for their highly efficient operation, resulting in low energy consumption and total cost of ownership. We offer you a broad range of ZB VSD⁺ turbo blowers so we can always provide the optimal solution for every application.

A flexible solution for all your low-pressure and vacuum applications
Robust ZM oil-free multistage centrifugal blowers and exhausters provide you with the air or gas, pressure or vacuum you need at low maintenance costs.

The Com-paK is uniquely designed to minimize space requirements and reduce installation costs.

Construction and functional principle of a turbo blower of the current AERZEN AT and TB series are simple and at the same time effective. As the air supply of modern wastewater treatment plants is clearly designed for maximum availability, high energy efficiency and long maintenance cycles, AERZEN uses for the demanding bearing system within turbo blowers neither oil nor other lubricants — but simply air.

Gardner Denver’s factory-built IQ® PD blower package is a fully integrated package with many energy efficient options, such as Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) and high efficiency motors, which typically operate 3 to 5% more efficiently than standard motors.

The Hoffman Revolution is the world’s most advanced blower energy management system. The culmination of blower design and leadership delivers a new standard in efficiency and environmental protection. The first high speed centrifugal in its class—designed, built, and tested in the United States of America. Through advanced technologies, the Revolution delivers up to 45% energy savings, provides increased reliability with little or no maintenance, and comes factory prewired and tested in an ergonomically designed sound enclosure for plug-and-play operation.

Aerzen Rental provides best-in-class packages engineered for aggressive rental environments with on-board VFDs, remote monitoring, and outdoor builds with sound attenuating enclosure as standard.

Kaeser Compressors’ has extended its product range with the addition of PillAerator turbo blowers with magnetic bearing technology. Thanks to the direct-drive, active magnetic bearing motor and intelligent control system, the PillAerator turbo blower boasts an energy savings advantage over conventional rotary blowers up to 25%. With single unit flows up to 10,500 cfm, the PillAerator significantly expands Kaeser's solutions for water and wastewater applications.
