AERATION SYSTEMS
Effective aeration is essential for supporting the biological processes that remove contaminants in both municipal and industrial wastewater treatment. Because treatment goals and operating conditions vary, selecting the right diffuser and system configuration is critical to achieving long-term efficiency, performance, and reliability.
Our aeration solutions can be tailored to site-specific needs, whether the priority is energy optimization, simplified maintenance, or reliable operation under variable and seasonal loading.

AERATION TECHNOLOGIES
Ovivo Aerostrip
Diffused aeration systems supply the oxygen required to support biological treatment processes in wastewater facilities. AEROSTRIP® fine-pore diffusers are engineered to deliver high oxygen transfer efficiency while minimizing energy consumption and extending diffuser service life.
Designed for reliable performance across a wide operating range, AEROSTRIP diffusers feature a high-strength membrane for long-term durability and the flexibility to support varying biological process strategies—making them a robust, cost-effective solution for modern aeration systems.
Surface Aerators
Provide high-capacity oxygenation and mixing at the water’s surface. These systems are especially effective in lagoon-style treatment plants, aerobic digesters, and industries dealing with high-strength wastewater. Their above-water design allows for easy access, simple maintenance, and flexible operation in remote or open environments
Positive Displacement Blowers
A proven workhorse in wastewater aeration, this oil-free blower delivers constant airflow regardless of pressure fluctuations. Ideal for smaller plants or applications like digester gas handling and sludge aeration.
Screw Compressors
Efficient and robust, screw compressors provide steady, high-pressure airflow for demanding treatment processes. Well-suited for larger facilities requiring continuous operation with lower energy consumption.
Hybrid Screw Blowers
Designed for energy-efficient aeration, hybrid screw blowers offer the reliability of positive displacement with the performance of dynamic blowers. Great for processes with variable air demand, such as biological treatment and SBRs.
High Speed Turbo Blowers
Delivers high-efficiency, oil-free air using magnetic or air bearings with minimal maintenance. Ideal for large-scale aeration systems where energy savings, low noise, and precise control are essential.
Internally Geared Turbocompressors
Engineered for large wastewater treatment facilities, this advanced turbocompressor delivers precise, high-volume airflow with exceptional energy efficiency. Its integrally geared design allows for optimized impeller speeds and turndown capability, making it ideal for aeration systems with fluctuating demand and a focus on minimizing lifecycle costs.
Centrifugal Blowers
Best suited for high-capacity plants, centrifugal blowers provide large volumes of air at relatively low pressure. Common in applications like activated sludge systems and deep-tank aeration.
