Submersible aerator – Grit/grease removal – Trinidad and Tobago
Project details:
Water treatment plant – grit/grease removal
Solution:
Six units of our SC 5 1,5kW, designed for grit/grease removal, were installed in the tank. In the pretreatment process, a sand and grease removal system was foreseen. Our SC 5 – 1.5kW were chosen because of this specific mechanical aeration system that favors the flotation of oils and grease. Thanks to these bottom aerators, which are installed raised, sands are separated from the liquid and deposit on the bottom of the tank. They are then collected and extracted from the tank thanks to air lift. Following the installation of the SC, in addition to the usual electric check with absorption test, trial operations and relative suction test with anemometer were carried out.
