  • Wastewater Treatment Plant Reduces Energy Consumption, Noise With Turbo Blower Technology

    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.

  • Applying Variable Speed Compressors In Multiple Compressor Applications
    8/23/2021

    Variable speed control for all types of industrial equipment is readily available on the market with competitive pricing to non-variable speed controlled alternatives, including in the air compressor industry. With the advent of prescriptive rebate programs for variable speed compressors and other equipment, the demand for these types of controls has increased.

  • 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.

  • 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.

Aerzen’s AERprocess Dissolved Oxygen Control is an integrated solution for controlling the dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration in the activated sludge treatment process and the blowers used to generate the process air flow requirement.

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 new Delta Hybrid direct driven sizes are the technological evolution of the AERZEN screw blower series. The future has just begun thanks to a super efficient newly designed stage with 3+4 rotors profile and a new drive concept for low pressure applications, a reduced footprint with side by side installation, a no-space adder Plug & Play solution with integrated starter, possibility to install IE5 motors and extended turndown ratio up to 1:5. Let yourself be surprised at how easy and cost-saving it is to generate low pressure compressed air.

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.

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.

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.

The Generation 5 Delta Blower offers considerable sound reductions, so expensive measures such as special acoustic hoods are no longer required.

Mass Transfer Systems offers air blowers for aeration systems, the bulk of which are either multistage cetrifugal or positive displacement blowers. MTS can provide technical assistance in selecting the blowers to best fit your project.
