New Turbocompressors Boost Efficiency At Wastewater Plant

By Lucas Vrijdag, Product Manager, Benelux for Sulzer

Sulzer engineers helped a plant in the Netherlands cut its energy costs with a turnkey project

Sulzer’s HST™ turbocompressors were specifically designed for the water industry’s need for high volume, low pressure air to feed aeration tanks. Four of the company’s first-generation HST 2500 machines have been doing that job for almost two decades at the Deventer wastewater treatment plant in the Netherlands. Now the plant’s owners have worked with Sulzer engineers to upgrade its existing units with three latest generation machines.
