  • Smooth Operator
    10/31/2016

    All turbo manufacturers are not created equal. After a different supplier failed to perform, Aerzen’s technology, expertise, and customer service took the Charles River WWTP from extreme frustration to smooth operation.

  • Self-Tuning System Provides Big Leap In DO Control
    5/4/2021

    The City of Cumberland (MD) wastewater treatment plant could see wild swings in its dissolved oxygen (DO) levels until it replaced its air control system with Aerzen AERprocess, an intelligent airflow control system. Now, the city enjoys vastly improved DO control in individual zones and across the entire process, as well as significant savings on its energy bills.

  • Wastewater Treatment Plant Reduces Energy Consumption, Noise With Turbo Blower Technology
    6/24/2013

    Built in 1974, the Blue River Wastewater Treatment Plant in Silverthorne, Colorado, provides wastewater services to the communities of Silverthorne, Dillon, Dillon Valley, Buffalo Mountain, and Mesa Cortina. Faced with rising energy costs and aging equipment, the Silverthorne-Dillon Joint Sewer Authority (JSA) identified a need to replace the plant’s original multistage centrifugal blowers with new technology that would reduce energy consumption and provide steady and reliable operation.

  • Air Diffusion Systems Helps Francesville With New Aeration System
    2/15/2019

    In 2012, the Town of Francesville in Indiana contacted Air Diffusion Systems to provide a solution for several suspended solids violations and energy efficient treatment. Air Diffusion Systems was able to provide an unique solution to correct biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and total suspended solids (TSS) problems using Kaeser Compressors’ CB Com-paK blowers.

What is a rotary screw blower?
Screw compressors delivering compressed air below 1.5 bar(g) are referred to as (rotary) screw blowers. The working principles of a screw blower are thus identical to those of a rotary screw compressor.

System controls are critical to a wastewater blower system. Without them, a system with multiple blowers operating on their individual controls will run more than necessary and result in wasted energy. Maintenance costs increase and worst of all: process performance suffers.

The groundbreaking Delta Hybrid Rotary Lobe Compressor is the result of a synergy between the rotary lobe blower and the screw compressor technologies and offers completely new possibilities by combining the technical advantages of both concepts.

Volume flow intakes from 2000 cfm to 8000 cfm Direct Driven, High Speed Turbo Blowers

Aeration is the heart of most industrial and municipal wastewater treatment and we have a new, cutting-edge solution.

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.

Kaeser screw blowers use up to 35 percent less energy than conventional rotary blowers and even achieve significant energy savings compared to currently available screw blowers. The combination of a blower airend with high efficiency Sigma profile rotors, flow-optimized components, efficient power transmission and drive components ensures exceptional performance, guaranteed by Kaeser in accordance with the stringent requirements of ISO 1217.

Kaeser has been a leader in creating fully packaged blower systems that are reliable, durable, energy-efficient, and simple to maintain. Our line of Com-paK blower packages set the standard in the blower industry.
