Sewage and Wastewater Treatment
Oil-free air blower solutions for each Sewage and Wastewater Treatment application both industrial and municipal. We offer clean air technology, with high energy efficiency and low total cost of ownership.
Getting started: how to find the right blower for your site
Before you look at the technical details of a solution, it's a good idea to go back to basics. Looking at the data plate of your existing units will give you some information, but not the full picture. What is the current capacity you need at your site? How do you compare blower performance data? With a few guidelines, you'll be able to spot the best offer in no time.

The true cost of your aeration air
Up to 70% of the energy consumption in a sewage or wastewater treatment plant is used by air blowers. So, keeping energy costs down is key to keeping total operational costs low. To ensure we keep your operational costs down, we designed the most efficient and reliable machines on the market. This will ensure a faster return on investment!
Easy integration
Thinking about the installation of your air blowers might seem like something you do after you've purchased them. Thinking ahead will save you from unexpected costs. For instance, not all blowers are offered as complete packages. Making sure you have a complete package will ensure that everything you'll need for operation is included in your purchase. What are the hidden costs? What should be included before your blowers can be deployed into the treatment process?
Never run out of air
Minimizing emissions & breakdowns
Compressed air is an integral part of the wastewater treatment process. The first step towards a more reliable process is choosing the quality equipment that fits your needs. It's key to stay ahead of new governmental guidelines and regulations. The increasingly strict rules require your process to emit a minimal amount of carbon and the water to contain a minimal level of pollutants after treatment.
Optimal aeration control
Designing your aeration control system affects the efficiency of your process. More control means more knowledge and fewer chances of a complete breakdown. The more control you want, the more data you'll need. Traditional blower setups such as cascade sequences or unit control through gauges only allow simple measuring and control. Discover our tips and tricks to get more control over your system.
Minimal maintenance
Correctly maintaining your aeration installation ensures a smooth treatment process. Preventive maintenance is a great way toward a healthy installation. But taking the next step toward predictive maintenance will pay off in the long run. Discover how you can extend traditional service intervals and avoid those unwanted breakdowns.

Montville Wastewater Treatment Plant
The Montville Water Pollution Control Facility uses six Sequencing Batch Reactors (SBRs) to treat their wastewater. The influent flows have significantly higher loading than average due to industrial users from a paper plant and also a nearby casino due to those high loads. They need much more air than your average wastewater treatment plant. Atlas Copco met with Superintendent Derek Albertson about to discuss the application and why Atlas Copco’s ZB VSD+ blower was the perfect the needs of the facility.
