Embracing... Septage?

Two things are perhaps certain about septage: it is highly variable; and, by its very nature — spewing odorous compounds and elements that can cause disease — it is ‘objectionable.’ Or is it?

White Paper: The Principles Of Aeration And Mixing Utilizing Process Aerator Technology

In the design of wastewater treatment plants, aeration typically involves supply of both oxygen and mixing. Aeration is a large consumer of both energy and operational costs. The Aire-O₂ Triton aerator/mixer is a process aeration technology that addresses both of these aspects and is environmentally friendly, which is a winning formula to help achieve long-term sustainability.
