Plant Maintenance - Aeration Systems
See How You Can Maximise Asset Life with Minimal Ownership Cost
There are two key characteristics of any plant's aeration system:- It is vital to achieve a compliant final effluent
- It consumes up to 60% of the total site power
Aeration systems operate in an environment where biological growth is encouraged to treat the wastewater therefore the diffusers are prone to biological growth or bio-fouling. If allowed to persist and develop, bio-fouling will increase the pressure drop across the diffuser and reduce the oxygen transfer efficiency, resulting in increased aeration operating costs and a reduced operating life of the diffuser units.
Aquatreat Environmental Engineering Limited offer a range of independent and expert contract maintenance services for all types of aeration systems. This ensures that you will minimise your aeration plant ownership costs and maximise the viable operating life of the plant assets.
Aquatreat engineers have extensive experience in designing, installing, commissioning and maintaining many types of aeration systems. This expertise is available to plant owners and operators under different types of inspection and maintenance contracts.
Planned Inspection and Maintenance
Planned maintenance of your aeration system will extend periods of trouble free operation and minimise both plant down time and operating costs. Regular maintenance and reporting enables the early identification of any plant problems or potential failures and provides you with an early warning before the problem either occurs or results in a more serious failure.
With regular maintenance and reporting regimes you can be confident that your plant ownership costs are minimised AND you will benefit from the maximum viable operating life of the plant.
Unplanned Maintenance
From time to time unforeseen aeration system failures occur. As part of a maintenance contract Aquatreat engineers can be made available to resolve any issues associated with unforeseen or unplanned events. You will have the peace of mind that experienced engineers are equipped and at your disposal, ensuring minimum disruption is caused to the day to day operation of your plant.Services available for your aeration system include:
- In-situ refurbishment / replacement of damaged pipework and equipment
- Cleaning and/or replacing the diffusers
- Leak and pattern inspection and testing
- Inspection and evaluation of equipment
- Modify plant if appropriate to avoid recurrence of any failures
All events will have a report on probable cause, likelihood of recurrence and potential consequences on other aspects of the plant and processBenefits for You, Your Budget and Your Plant
From the day that your aeration system is brought into service the diffusers are prone bio-fouling.
The bio-fouling reduces your aeration system efficiency resulting in increased power consumption
which can be significant in medium to large plants. This means YOU will lose large
sums of money every day when operating with an inefficient system. Ask about the maintenance programme and specialist periodic tests available for you to determine the most appropriate maintenance regime for your plant. Your site specific maintenance programme enables you to decide when it is most economically viable to clean or refurbish the aeration system.
Another benefit is that minor system faults or deteriorating conditions can usually be detected early and dealt with before the fault causes catastrophic failure of the plant or equipment.
