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. The upgrade expanded the plant’s capacity from 6 to 10 MGD and replaced an inefficient, odor-prone coarse-bubble aeration system.
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
Innovating Wastewater Treatment: Harnessing AI For Energy Efficiency And Enhanced Performance

Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers a promising solution to the challenges posed by energy-intensive aeration processes and the consequent escalation of operational costs in wastewater treatment.

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.
PISCES™ CFSBR Continuous Fill Sequencing Batch Reactor
Parkson’s PISCES™ CFSBR combines the process benefits of cyclical treatment with the simplified operating concept of continuously filling all reactor tanks at all times.
Optimizing Air Flows To Aeration Basins
As a result of clean energy mandates and the rising cost of energy, wastewater treatment facilities around the country are retrofitting their instrumentation to run highly efficient, cost-effective, clean facilities. To reduce emissions and produce clean energy, solid wastes are often digested in large digester tanks to reduce the volume of waste (sludge) and produce more biogas, which is then used as fuel in the cogeneration process. However, a clean environment calls for not just clean air and clean energy, but clean water as well.
Aeration: Airmaster Aerator Each aeration unit shall be capable of producing 3.0 lbs. of oxygen per nameplate horsepower per hour under normal conditions during aeration. Each 15 HP aeration unit is capable of pumping and mixing approximately 3,024,000 gallons per day under normal conditions and continuous operation
Winery Wastewater Treatment Systems
ClearBlu installs the most effective winery wastewater systems available. We are a design/build contractor. Utilizing biodigester technology, our capital costs for systems are significantly lower than other systems. Why? Because we are not utilizing municipal wastewater system technology to treat winery waste. They represent two different problems.

Winery waste water contains sugars and grape organics. This narrow profile means that it is easier to treat. Typically engineering firms will spend 10’s or 100’s of thousands of dollars designing systems that are overly complex, very costly to install, difficult to operate and expensive to maintain. By focusing on the content of the waste stream, ClearBlu installs systems with much smaller footprints. If ponds are utilized, less than 24% of the acreage engineers require will be needed. We eliminate chemical usage by eliminating DAF and SAF systems.
