Rethinking Aeration: Demand-Based DO Control And Energy Optimization

Aeration control strategies often remain conservative and static. Blowers operate continuously, oxygen levels are maintained near maximum, and airflow rates are rarely adjusted in response to real-time biological demand. The result is widespread over-aeration — a condition that does not improve treatment performance but significantly increases operating costs.
Actuators On Aeration Blower Valves Improve Dissolved Oxygen And Increase Overall Process Stability

Discover how installing Beck electric actuators on the aeration blower control valves has improved process stability and plant operations for a South Florida treatment plant.
2nd Generation ATAD Provides Superior Treatment

In a bold move to modernize its wastewater treatment, Bowling Green, Ohio, installed the state’s first second-generation Autothermal Thermophilic Aerobic Digestion (ATAD) system — ThermAer — in 2004.
California's First Installation Of 2nd Generation ATAD

Calera Creek Water Recycling Plant, located in Pacifica, California, recently retrofitted to the Thermal Process Systems’ ThermAer™. This is California’s first installation of the second generation ATAD system.
The Savings Are Blowin' In At Port Washington Wastewater Treatment Plant

The municipal wastewater treatment plant in Port Washington, Wisconsin, is located on the picturesque shore of Lake Michigan, so it’s essential that their plant performs as designed.
Compressed Air System Leaks: The Cost, Common Culprits, Detection, And Repair

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.
Selecting The Optimal Blower For The Water Industry

In this white paper, we will drill down into which technology has particularly proven itself in terms of energy efficiency in the water industry.
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.
Case Study: Flat Creek Water Recovery Facility

In this case study, learn about a city that worked with ChartWater™ to provide emergency, supplemental oxygenation using BlueInGreen’s supersaturated dissolved oxygen (SDOX®) technology.
Oxygen On Demand: How A Gulf Coast Refinery Overcame High COD Challenges With A Rapid H2O2 Dosing System

The Gulf Coast Refinery approached USP Technologies (USP) to engineer a bulk H2O2 chemical dosing system sized to meet the plant’s D.O. demand

Grease And Oil Aeration Tank: G.O.A.T.
Our Grease Oil Aeration Tanks were designed for the permanent removal and oxidation of F.O.G. (Fats, Oils, & Grease) and H2S in commercial and residential grease traps and grease interceptors. The G.O.A.T. is a compact stainless steel tank located in close proximity to a sink or dishwasher for the treatment of “Gray Water” effluent. The G.O.A.T. incorporates hybrid ozone with hydroxyl radicals (A.O.P) for the permanent removal of F.O.G. and H2S on contact. DO2E’s G.O.A.T. achieves the maximum oxygen transfer required for the total breakdown of all F.O.G. particulates. F.O.G. is converted on contact into suspended micro-fine inert particulates.
TumbleOx™ Nitrification Reactor
The Parkson TumbleOx™ Bioreactor consists of a treatment tank(s) containing a series of slowly rotating drums. Each drum is partially filled with loose media which freely tumbles inside the five-foot diameter drum as it rotates. A thin biofilm grows on the media and provides biological treatment. The unique media design maximizes surface area for biological growth and also aerates the wastewater as the drum turns, providing dissolved oxygen for the micro-organisms. The system components include the rotating drum, plastic media, and the bearings and simple drive mechanism to slowly rotate the drum. No supplemental aeration system is required.
Improving Compliance Through Real-Time Phosphorus Control
Levels of phosphorus, a chemical element that promotes organic growth, must be controlled in wastewater coming from beverage, food and dairy processing plants. Failure to control phosphorus accurately has a negative impact on water quality and can lead to large fines.
VertiCel® Wastewater Treatment Systems
The VertiCel® system is superior to other aeration technologies because it saves energy and space, while producing an unparalleled effluent quality. It is ideally suited for wastewater treatment plants with process flows above two million gallons per day. The VertiCel® tanks in series design consists of an aerated-anoxic tank followed by an aerobic tank.
Aeration System
ClearBlu Environmental focuses on complete aerobic digestion of organic waste. This process is desirable over anaerobic digestion because it is fast, odor free, and prevents the need for any solids removal procedures. Aerobic digestion is desirable over DAF systems because it eliminates the need for costly chemical use and disposal. ClearBlu uses a unique aeration technology known as microbubble aeration, to achieve an aquatic environment which supports a bacteria population capable of complete digestion. This is the key difference over conventional technologies.

WASTEWATER AERATION VIDEOS

Tom McCurdy from Aerzen discusses the evolution of their highly successful "Delta Hybrid" line — a low-pressure screw compressor package designed for the water and wastewater industry. The presentation details the modern upgrades engineered to elevate the equipment's footprint, versatility, and efficiency.
