The economic efficiency of modern wastewater treatment plants is significantly influenced by the energy consumption of the various process steps during wastewater treatment. The energy-intensive process of biological aeration is a particular focus of attention in this regard: around 60 to 80 percent of the total energy requirement is generated here. At the same time, wastewater tank aeration offers great energy-saving potential that can be exploited by operators of wastewater treatment tanks.
As an experienced specialist for water and wastewater technology, AERZEN has always set new standards for energy efficiency in aeration tanks. The innovative Performance³ concept is the most efficient, powerful and flexible technology solution for demand-driven oxygen supply in wastewater treatment tanks. The unique selling point of Performance³ is its optimised adaptation of blower output to individual load fluctuations and different degrees of contamination. But which technology powers Performance³? How do the different blower technologies interact in the aeration tank and how can different power requirements and volume flow ranges be combined in a technically sensible way?
In simplified terms, Performance³ refers to the approach of configuring machine technologies to a plant's individual requirements in order to achieve the most efficient aeration solution. The aim is to optimally meet the fluctuating load requirements and, taking into account the available technologies, to always operate with the most efficient machine usage.
Three different blower technologies are suitable for this: positive displacement blowers, rotary lobe compressors and turbo blowers. Depending on the system configuration and capacity usage, these technologies can be switched in a way that achieves maximum efficiency through their strengths in interaction or as individual solutions. Efficiency values can be further improved in conjunction with the AERsmart global control system, which ensures optimum distribution of air volumes to each assembly.
