Submersible Aerator for Effluent Treatment in Ethanol Plants

Overview

The submersible aerator for effluent treatment is equipment designed to transfer oxygen and promote continuous mixing in ponds and tanks at ethanol plants. Operating with excellence in total immersion, this system accelerates the biological degradation of organic matter present in vinasse and other liquid waste from the sugar-energy sector, ensuring compliance with environmental standards.

In biofuel plants, the high organic load requires robust and reliable solutions. As Agimix provides the aeration system to be installed in large tanks or ponds that the customer already has, the integration of a SCLK Series Submersible Aerator guarantees ideal oxygenation without the need for complex civil works. Cutting-edge technology prevents solid sedimentation and eliminates dead zones at the bottom of the reservoirs, optimizing the treatment process.

With 15 years in the industrial agitation and mixing solutions market, Agimix serves the industry in general with complete and integrated projects. We are official representatives of the renowned SCM Tecnologie in Brazil, bringing high-performance Italian engineering equipment to the national market, such as the AGV Series Submersible Aerator AGV and the Fluxo AF Series Submersible Mixer, ensuring unparalleled durability and energy efficiency for the treatment of your wastewater.

Frequently asked questions

Direct answers to the most common questions about this equipment and its application.

What is a submersible aerator for wastewater treatment?

The submersible aerator is an industrial equipment designed to inject oxygen and promote the mixing of fluids simultaneously. Operating in total immersion, it is essential for accelerating the biological degradation of organic matter in wastewater treatment plants.

How does the submersible aerator work in ethanol plants?

In ethanol plants, the equipment oxygenates and homogenizes waste with a high organic load, such as vinasse. The use of a Radial Submersible Aerator prevents the decantation of solids at the bottom of the ponds and drastically improves the efficiency of biological treatment.

Does Agimix supply the tanks for treating the plant's effluents?

No, Agimix only provides the complete aeration and mixing system. Our equipment is sized and installed directly in the lagoons, reactors or large tanks that the plant itself already has in its infrastructure.

What are the advantages of Italian engineering in aerators?

The Italian engineering of SCM Tecnologie, officially represented by Agimix in Brazil, guarantees extremely robust and high-performance equipment. This translates into continuous and efficient mixing, combined with lower energy consumption and greater mechanical durability.

Is it possible to use submersible mixers together with aerators?

Yes, the combination of aerators with a AF Flow Series Submersible Mixer creates a complete treatment system. While the aerator provides the necessary oxygen for bacteria, the mixer ensures that the fluid circulates throughout the reservoir, eliminating dead zones.

What is the noise level generated by these equipment?

Because they operate in total immersion, submersible aerators and mixers generate a significantly lower noise level compared to surface models. This improves working conditions and environmental safety around the plant's treatment ponds.

Do submersible aerators require a lot of maintenance?

No, the design focused on high performance and robustness minimizes the need for operational stops. Preventive maintenance is simple and the equipment is built with noble materials to withstand the severe conditions of industrial effluents on a continuous basis.

How do I size the correct aeration system for my plant?

The ideal sizing depends on the volume of the lagoon, the organic load of the effluent and the specific oxygen demand. Agimix's technical team evaluates all these parameters to provide a complete aeration project that is perfectly suited to the infrastructure you already have.
