Activated Sludge Aeration
Aquatec-Maxcon dominates the Australian market with over 80% market share. All installations are feild-tested providing our firm with unrivalled experience on transfer efficiencies in hot climates.
Diffused Air Aeration
Aeration systems are available for continuous or intermittent systems in conventional basins, lagoons and racetrack or circular oxidation ditch configurations. Ceramic and membrane type disc and tubular diffusers are offered providing the highest available efficiencies. Integral mixing systems are offered for optimised performance. Examples include:
75,000 EP racetrack continuous aeration oxidation ditches with ceramic diffusers at Gibson Island, Brisbane and Porirua, New Zealand.
100,000 EP intermittent cycle extended aeration plant with membrane diffusers at Quaker's Hill, Sydney.
Our firm has completed Australia's largest ever aeration project for a 210 ML/Day peak flow intermittent cycle plant at Black Rock Geelong. This equipment transfers 3,600kg O2/Hr.
After an extensive research and development program, Aquatec-Maxcon has developed the first entirely Australian designed and manufactured membrane diffuser the AQUABLADE. This revolutionary patented technology offers material capital and operating savings through improved transfer efficiency and reduced fouling potential.
A full scale test tank facility is also available at our factory to enable full works testing with attendant advantages including:
Reduced consumption of potable water and chemicals
Reduced contract delivery period.
Better controlled, more accurate testing.
Surface Aeration
Our Aquastar surface aerator is available in fixed and floating configurations which offer the highest available guaranteed oxygen transfer efficiencies demonstrated by infield testing. Installations include:-
89 x 30kW floating aerators for Werribee stratified lagoons near Melbourne.
24 x 37kW/18kW fixed mount units for Bendigo biological nutrient removal plant in Victoria.
Adjustable weirs and decant mechanisms can also be provided.
