Low pressure blowers are a key component in the aeration system, supplying large volumes of air into tanks, which are activated by dissolving oxygen in the process. Low pressure blowers are a key component in the aeration system, supplying large volumes of air into tanks, which are activated by dissolving oxygen in the process. This is an energy-intensive process for the wastewater treatment sector; in fact, the energy used for aeration can, in some instances, be as high as 70 per cent of the site’s total energy consumption. Such a critical process needs to be well designed and installed to ensure maximum performance – 2 helping to protect uptime, avoid efficiency losses and avoid high maintenance costs. This whitepaper will explore the benefits of correct equipment design and best practices for installation as well as the importance of a thorough maintenance regime.
