Large scale pilot program for river aeration

The European Union conducted competitive selection to provide aeration for the “De Dommel” river system in the Eindhoven region of The Netherlands. FlowMixer was selected based on both O2 ppm and energy use performance.
This large scale pilot of the FlowMixer was partly financed by EC (European Commission) and done in collaboration with the Municipality of Eindhoven, Waterschap de Dommel and the Technical University of Eindhoven.

Results for FlowMixer vs traditional agitators:

50% less energy input required

Better oxygen transfer due to finer bubbles

Operate in shallow water

Less complex solution, less maintenance

Ozone Study for Drinking Water

The University of Massachusetts asset the vortex process technology’s performance as a hydraulic device for increasing oxidation efficiency and an enhanced chemical feed apparatus, especially for ozone
The Watreco Vortex Process Technology (VPT) was evaluated by the UMass Amherst Water Energy and Technology Center to determine its ability to improve the performance of modern water treatment oxidation technologies including ozone injection and LED-UV disinfection.

Findings & Recommendations

Complete ozone saturation outperforming standard venturi by 40%

Positive impact reducing total microcystins in ponds and lakes

Where can FlowMixer be used?

Any project in need for cost effective water aeration can benefit from adopting FlowMixer

FlowMixer can be used to efficiently aerate rivers, ponds, lakes, fountains, fish farms, waste water treatment plants etc…

Rivers

Rivers suffering from low oxygen conditions caused by sewage discharges, agricultural run-off, or heavy rain will require water aeration.

Ponds

Aeration provides an oxygen-rich environment in the pond, promoting a healthy habitat for fish and other aquatic life.

Lakes

Aeration in lakes provides oxygen to bacteria for treating and stabilizing the water body. Oxygen is needed by the bacteria to allow bio-degradation.

Fountains

Fountain aeration will keep the water clean and fresh. Without sufficient dissolved oxygen, degradation occurs and the biological process convert hydrogen and sulfur to form hydrogen sulfide and methane.

Fish Farms

Aeration is needed to counter harmful algae blooms and to promote a healthy habitat for fish and other aquatic life. It will also improve poor water quality caused by tarps/lice skirts.

Waste Water

Aeration is the process of adding air into wastewater to allow aerobic bio-degradation of the pollutant components. One of the major objectives of aeration is to remove carbon dioxide.

How does it work?

FlowMixer achieves the same level of aeration with 50% less energy input compared to traditional methods.

It’s an innovative, environmentally friendly solution to improve processes and efficiency.

The strong, structured vortex created when water is run through the system under pressure:

  • Use 50% less energy​ than traditional methods
  • Better oxygen transfer thanks to finer bubbles
  • Less complex solution and therefore less maintenance
  • Can operate in shallow water down to 0.5m​
