  • Upgrade To Diffused Aeration Results In Significant Energy Savings
    12/12/2013

    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.

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.

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

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.
