Hydro Innovations Venturi-aerator bank-mounted water aerator

A bank-mounted Venturi-aerator is a device used to mix and aerate tanks, ponds and lagoons. The Venturi-Aerator is used in conjunction with a self-priming pump to draw water from the source, aerate and pump back into the lagoon, basin or tank.

Venturi-aerators are as effective as traditional surface aerators. Because all equipment is mounted on the banks of lagoons or adjacent to tanks, the requirements for row-boats or cranes is eliminated, making it safer, easier and more cost-effective to own, operate and maintain.

Oxygen is transferred at good SOTE, combined with reduced maintenance costs.

Mixing and destratification is controlled by the positioning of the suction and discharge of the pump. Water can be drawn from anywhere and any depth of the tank or lagoon, and can be discharged anywhere at any depth.

Applications include: odour control, sludge digestion, wastewater aeration, lake destratification, septage treatment and many others.

These aeration units are used in conjunction with Gorman-Rupp self-priming centrifugal pumps to deliver solutions with the following advantages: simple, uncomplicated design; easy to install; high SOTR (standard oxygen transfer rate); easy to maintain; low cost of ownership; and safe for operators.
