The Role of Aeration in Wastewater Treatment
Water treatment aerators are used to remove impurities, particles, and dissolved gases such as carbon dioxide from the water and oxidize dissolved metals such as volatile organic chemicals, hydrogen sulfide, and iron. Increasing demand for the aerator from the wastewater treatment plant is one of the significant factors that propel the growth of the water treatment aerators market. Moreover, rising demand from aquaculture and municipal water treatment are also triggering the water treatment aerators market growth. What is Aeration? Wastewater aeration is the process of adding air into wastewater to allow aerobic bio-degradation of the pollutant components. It is an integral part of most biological wastewater treatment systems. Chemical treatments make use of chemicals to react and stabilize the contaminants in the wastewater stream whereas biological treatments use microorganisms that naturally occur in wastewater to degrade contaminants. ...
