  • 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.

  • Compressed Air System Leaks: The Cost, Common Culprits, Detection, And Repair
    10/10/2024

    In this paper, we’ll discuss how many companies are losing thousands of dollars each year to compressed air system leaks. We will address where leaks commonly occur, leak detection methods, and practical advice for an audit and repair plan.

  • Freeport Wastewater Treatment Plant Saves Money And Energy With Hybrid Blowers
    9/30/2013

    Best known as the home of outdoor retailer L.L. Bean, the community of Freeport is a popular summer destination on the shore of Casco Bay in southern coastal Maine. In 2010, the Freeport Sewer District brought in engineering firm Woodard & Curran (also of Freeport), to conduct an energy analysis of the Freeport Wastewater Treatment Facility. The assessment revealed that the Freeport plant consumed more than 8.9 kBtu per gallon of wastewater treated, more than double the national average of 4.1 kBtu per gallon. While an outdated oil heating system contributed to the overall inefficiency, the plant’s 30-year-old multistage centrifugal aeration blowers accounted for as much as 80 percent of the electricity consumption.

  • Why ASME PTC10 Is Not Sufficient To Define Testing Of A High Speed Turbo Blower
    1/22/2016

    The technology to produce low pressure air, an energy intensive ingredient in the wastewater process, has made significant steps forward in recent years. Unfortunately, the specifications for testing these new sophisticated air producers have not kept pace.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

Capacity bottlenecks or production losses are scenarios feared in every company and require a fast and efficient solution. AERZEN offers 24/7 solutions to overcome problems arising in the supply of oil-free air for various application cases.

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.
