First, let’s explain the purpose of waste water blowers. These blowers are used in the water treatment industry to aid in the process of removing harmful contaminants from the water. Waste water blowers are used to aerate the water in treatment tanks, introducing oxygen into the environment. The aerobic bacteria used in the treatment process then take in this oxygen, which is used in the bacteria’s metabolic processes to break down the various chemicals in the water. Without a continuous supply of oxygen, which the blowers provide, the bacteria would die, and the waste water would remain dirty and contaminated.
As for the waste water blowers themselves, they work by using a system of fans and pipes to move ambient air from the atmosphere into the treatment tanks. An intake fan above ground connects to a pipe leading under the surface of the waste water, blowing the air into the liquid the same way you can blow bubbles in your drink using a straw. If you have questions about how waste water blowers work, don’t hesitate to give us a call.
