AERDISC IMPROVES EFFICIENCY OF DIFFUSED AERATION IN IDEA BASIN
Wingecarribee Shire Council is currently upgrading the Mossvale wastewater treatment plant due to overloading. They were struggling to maintain compliance during the upgrade process. Not surprising considering the existing plant was designed for 9,000EP (Equivalent Population) but is currently treating 16,000EP! The two IDEA (Intermittently Decanted Extended Aeration) basins with a water level of less […]
IMAGINE AN AERATOR THAT DOESN’T RAG
aerdisc® is 100% rag-free! Ragging is a bane in the life of every wastewater treatment plant operator. When developing aerdisc®, we prepared a design brief and No.1 on the list was “Resistance to ragging”. It was a lofty goal considering ANYTHING immersed in wastewater, or intercepting the flow of wastewater, is susceptible to ragging; more-so […]

FAST-TRACK AERATORS PROVE POPULAR
The ability to deliver and install aerators at short-notice has been well received by municipal and industrial clients alike, and in some cases has proven a lifesaver. Aeris Global currently has over 1,000kW of aquaturbo® Model AER-AS Floating Surface Aerators and 30 aerdisc® Directional Aerators in stock. Many aeration projects also incorporate mixers, so the […]

AERDISC MOORING OPTIONS DELIGHT END-USERS
aerdisc® has proven its diversity in terms of process applications but is also delighting end-users with a seemingly endless array of mooring options. The unique multi-directional, A-Frame swing-arm can be attached to any one of three positions on the pontoon to suit to the required vector-of-thrust: Inline, Lefthand or Righthand. After selecting the desired configuration, […]
