Aeration Water Treatment Systems

Aeration is used in water treatment as a pretreatment in the process of removing iron and hydrogen sulfide rotten egg smell from water.

Aeration water treatment systems. Air is a powerful oxidizer of both iron and hydrogen sulfide. The air causes the dissolved gases or volatile compounds to release from the water. These solar powered aerators reduce the costs associated with conventional chemical treatments and eliminate the need to install and operate electrical equipment. The water can then move through a filter to trap the iron and manganese particles.

It also had to oxygenate the bottom so bacteria and insects could feed on and biodegrade organic sediments and so anaerobic bacteria would not produce odors and toxic gases. Water aeration is often required in water bodies that suffer from hypoxic or anoxic conditions often caused by upstream human activities such as sewage discharges agricultural run off or over baiting a fishing lake. Carbon dioxide reduction decarbonation oxidation of iron and manganese found in many well waters oxidation tower ammonia and hydrogen sulfide reduction stripping. Aeration is used in water treatment as a pretreatment in the process of removing iron and hydrogen sulfide rotten egg smell from water.

Aeration can be achieved through the infusion of air into the bottom of the lake lagoon or pond or by surface agitation from a fountain or spray like device to. To bind phosphorus and nitrogen to the bottom sediment instead of re suspending it into the water column the wastewater aeration system had to be engineered to fully oxygenate the water from the surface to bottom. It quickly converts unfilterable ferrous iron to filterable ferric iron and it reduces hydrogen sulfide to elemental sulfur which is easily removed from water by a filter. Aeration as a water treatment practice is used for the following operations.

Aeration treatment consists of passing large amounts of air through water and then venting the air outside. When used with an appropriate filter it can eliminate large amounts of these contaminants without chemicals or oversized retention tanks. Air is a powerful oxidizer of both iron and hydrogen sulfide. Aer max is the most effective closed tank aeration system available for the treatment of iron hydrogen sulfide and manganese in residential well water.

In addition to water and wastewater treatment consumers use our ecoaeration products in ponds lakes and reservoirs for algae and odor control. In the case of iron and manganese the air causes these minerals to move from their dissolved state to a solid state and precipitate out of solution. The air and the contaminants released from the water are vented. Aeration removes odour and tastes due to volatile gases like hydrogen sulphide and due to algae and related organisms.
