Aerobic (aeration) Treatment

The aerobic treatment is a process in which bacteria consumes organic matter and converts it into carbon dioxide. The energy costs incurred when adding oxygen to this aeration process make this one of the more expensive wastewater treatment phases. Typically diffusers are installed on the tank floor where they release fine or course air bubbles. Pulsair mixing systems are ideally suited for this type of process because of the vertical mixing motion that occurs. This type of mixing maximizes contact between water and oxygen thus accelerating the aeration process and reducing overall costs.

Benefits of Pulsair's wastewater mixing systems for aerobic (aeration) treatment:

• Used in conjunction with diffusers - will work with all diffuser systems
• Maximizes contact between water and oxygen - disperses fine and course bubbles throughout the tank, which improves aeration regardless of liquid depth
• Accelerates aeration process - keeps smaller bubbles in contact with water longer
• Reduces energy cost - by harnessing gravity, our systems use less energy
• Very efficient - the sequential pulse pattern and vertical mixing motion accelerate the aerobic process reducing the amount of oxygen required
• Overall operational and maintenance costs are reduced
