Wastewater Treatment

Air Technology began to develop this area of our business in 2004, it has since become a source of huge expansion and we have developed a wide array of techniques to help us undertake surveys enabling us to optimise all manner of systems.

Delivering Combined Energy Efficiency and Quality Optimised Solutions

Organisations and businesses especially in the Water Industry, Food and Beverage,  Manufacturing Process and Property Estates sectors face the continued challenge of  operating wastewater treatment and supply air systems efficiently against ever increasing  water quality requirements and volatile fluctuating energy prices.

Air Technology Limited have over 30 years of experience in design, testing, process  optimisation and project management of air supply and wastewater treatment systems with a UK and globally recognised proven track record of expertise in achieving system associated energy efficiency, cost reduction and carbon mitigation across a wide range of market sectors and applications.

Our highly qualified and experienced team s work with client teams to achieve optimised best practice solutions based on detailed system performance measurement and appropriate investment. Typically we estimate that a 20% saving can be achieved on wastewater treatment plants based on detailed knowledge and case study benchmarks of projects implemented over many years.

We are committed to provide clients with appropriate and viable technical solutions that look to justify and meet economic, risk and quality business drivers.

Aeration, Process Air Supply Energy, Cost and Carbon Saving

Having worked for the vast majority of UK Water companies , Food and Beverage  organisations and other process sector businesses Air Technology have delivered projects throughout  the UK and overseas. Typically water industry clients have energy intensity for wastewater  treatment that accounts for between 55 and 60% of annual energy costs, with up to 60% of this figure being used by aeration processes. It is therefore key for companies to consider the combined energy and quality impacts of not having high performing operating assets.  Air Technology recognise that companies have a multitude of demands on their time and resources and provide a cost effective approach to delivering operational performance improvement whilst working within existing team and program management structures.

In addition the water industry has experienced a significant rising energy cost base with the ever increasing demands of biosolids treatment and water quality improvements. Our team have specifically added value in these areas including high step change improvement in sludge production reduction and lower ammonia outputs from treatment processes as a  result of optimisation projects. This said there are still many sewage and process treatment works which can really benefit from improvement initiatives.
