Wastewater Aeration Tanks, Lanes and Pockets

Aeration tanks are large basins where air is introduced to promote the growth of beneficial microorganisms that break down organic matter. Lanes refer to the channels or pathways within these tanks that guide the flow of wastewater, ensuring even distribution and effective treatment. Pockets are specific areas within the tanks where air and water mix more intensively, enhancing the oxygenation process and improving the efficiency of waste breakdown. Together, these elements play a crucial role in purifying wastewater before it is released back into the environment.

Spiral Aerators are used widely by UK wastewater utilities because of their reliability and effectiveness at turning 'failing' wastewater treatment works around. One of our clients has used them very successfully for a number of years to assist their existing surface aerators.
