• Comprehensive Compressed Air Assessments: The 5-Step Process

  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.

• 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.

• The Proper Application Of Rotary Lobe And Rotary Screw Blower Technology

  9/28/2017

  Written by Kaeser’s system experts, this white paper compares rotary lobe and screw blowers, isochoric and isentropic compression, and how to properly apply these technologies for designing an energy efficient system.

• HST™ Turbocompressor For Sky-High Savings In Wastewater Treatment

  The town of Fraser, Colorado, USA, with an annual mean temperature of 32.5°F is the coldest town in the lower 48 states and gets frost year-round. At an elevation of 8’574 feet, it is also the highest location for Sulzer’s HST 20 turbocompressor in the world. The Fraser WWTP high-speed blower upgrade was completed in early 2019, replacing older centrifugal blowers, which were loud and costly to operate.

• HST Turbocompressor Survives Category 4 Hurricane

  Victoria, Texas, is a small South Texas town of approx. 65’000 people just 30 miles inland from the Gulf of Mexico. This area is considered as humid subtropical, and the temperatures regularly exceed 100°F for the months of June through August. A record high temperature of 111°F was recorded in September 2000 and a record low of 9°F in December 1989. This location displays one of the most extreme temperature differentials in the United States. The HST high-speed blower was used in the new plant design which replaced an older two-stage trickling filter design in the Victoria WWTP.
