wastewater aeration for the Pulp and Paper industry

When it comes to aeration for pulp and paper wastewater, you don’t have to choose between lifecycle cost, ease of use, and high performance.

In a competitive industry like pulp and paper, you can’t afford an inefficient aeration system that subtracts from your bottom line and needs constant maintenance just to keep you in compliance. EDI’s aeration experts have helped numerous other pulp and paper manufacturers by choosing from our unique tools to create wastewater treatment that is simple to operate, reliable over the long haul, and efficient to keep more paper in your pocket.

“By far, the most superior and reliable aeration system package we have ever used. Thank you!”
Greg S., Pulp & Paper Plant Owner

Reduce the cost of your oxygen.

When it comes to treating the BOD and COD (biological and chemical oxygen demand), the key number is the cost per pound of oxygen. Whether you have lagoons that need optAER fine-bubble lagoon aeration, or you have concrete basins ready for EDI engineered aeration solutions, we can help you cut that cost of your oxygen down by a third of what surface aerators require, with no on-water O&M for things like changing oil. Plus, we have the membrane options to ensure you’ll get longer-lasting membranes that are resistant to things like calcium carbonate fouling.

Our wastewater treatment experts will help you select from our full range of optAER lagoon fine-bubble aeration and related upgrades, or EDI’s series of FlexAir® Pro fine-bubble membranes—whether it’s EPDM, HTPE, our proprietary PTFE-embedded Matrix™ and Matrix Plus™ membranes, or a special polymer designed just for you. Our engineers’ final configuration will be designed to keep your fine-bubble aeration system operating at its peak for longer and saving you money.

Look Inside

FlexAir® Pro fine-bubble aeration systems consist of variable configurations (like fixed grids or ModulAir), diffusers (like panels, tubes, and discs), and membranes (like EPDM, PTFE-embedded Matrix, and more).

Did you know?

Even if you have existing aeration, efficiency cost savings could pay for the cost to maintain or upgrade your system.

Case Study

Upgrading to FlexAir® Pro’s Streamline® diffusers enabled Lisbon, Portugal’s Frielas wastewater treatment plant to achieve an SOTE of 38.5%, surpassing the the requested SOTE of 37.75%, an efficiency of ~6.6%/m.

Let us handle your dirty work

Even if you have full-time wastewater treatment staff, there are some jobs worth offloading. Maybe its the on-water work of inspecting and cleaning your aeration diffusers. Maybe it’s a big job of replacing outdated, inefficient membranes. Maybe it’s getting your brand new equipment installed by the manufacturer’s own wastewater treatment experts, not just any contractor between paving jobs, and having that single point of responsibility.

It’s worth hiring the right team to get the job done right, done faster, and with a warranty. That right team is SiteWorks, our elite wastewater treatment squad and your wastewater operation’s new best friends. SiteWorks’ only goal is to ensure your plant is so well installed, serviced, and (should the need arise) repaired, you never have to worry about your wastewater treatment again.
