Submersible Aeration System for Slurry in Biogas Plants

Overview

Submersible aeration for leachate treatment is a fundamental process in biogas plants to promote oxygenation and biological degradation of organic pollutants. Using high-performance equipment operating in total immersion, this system guarantees the efficient transfer of oxygen to the microorganisms responsible for purifying the effluent.

With 15 years in the industrial agitation and mixing solutions market, Agimix develops complete projects to optimize the treatment of industrial effluents. For large installations such as biogas plants, we provide a high-tech aeration and mixing system to be installed directly in the tank or lagoon that the customer already has, ensuring maximum efficiency without the need to replace existing infrastructure.

Our line features cutting-edge technology, with Agimix being the official representative of the renowned SCM Tecnologie in Brazil. We offer solutions with Italian engineering, such as the SCLK Series Submersible Aerator and the Aerators Radial Submersibles, which guarantee continuous and efficient mixing of sludge and leachate, operating with excellence in total immersion to avoid dead zones.

In addition, to complement the digestate homogenization system, we have integrated robust equipment such as the Série Fluxo AF Submersible Mixer and the Series MX-GIR Submersible Mixer. This combination of aerators and submersible mixers provides ideal stabilization of the leachate, maximizing biogas production and ensuring compliance with strict environmental standards.

Benefits and advantages

High Oxygen Transfer

The advanced design of the AGV Series Submersible Aerator maximizes the dissolution of oxygen in the leachate, accelerating the biological degradation of pollutants.

Full Immersion Operation

Our equipment operates with excellence in total immersion, ensuring low noise levels and eliminating the formation of aerosols in the plant environment.

Cutting-edge Italian Engineering

As official representatives of SCM Tecnologie in Brazil, we deliver aerators and mixers with high-performance European technology and proven durability.

Complete Homogenization

The combined action of aeration and mixing prevents the decantation of solids, keeping the slurry homogenized and free from dead zones at the bottom of the tank.

Integration into Existing Tanks

We supply the complete aeration system custom designed to be installed directly in the large ponds or reservoirs that your plant already has.

Frequently asked questions

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

What is submersible aeration for leachate treatment?

submersible aeration for leachate treatment is a process of oxygen injection and mechanical mixing carried out below the surface of the liquid. This system uses equipment such as the SCLK Series Submersible Aerator to promote the aerobic degradation of pollutants in biogas plants, ensuring a final effluent within environmental standards.

How does the submersible aerator work in the biogas plant?

The equipment works by transferring oxygen to the effluent while promoting the homogenization of the liquid mass. This ensures that aerobic bacteria have the ideal conditions and the necessary contact with organic matter to decompose the polluting load of the leachate quickly and efficiently.

Does Agimix supply the tanks for treating the leachate?

No, Agimix only provides the aeration and mixing system to be installed in the customer's infrastructure. Our equipment is custom designed to operate perfectly in the lagoons, reactors or large tanks that the biogas plant already has.

What are the advantages of SCM Tecnologie technology?

The technology from SCM Tecnologie, of which we are official representatives in Brazil, offers high-performance Italian engineering. This translates into extremely robust equipment that guarantees continuous mixing, high energy efficiency and excellent operation in total immersion.

Is it possible to combine aeration and mixing in the same effluent tank?

Yes, it is highly recommended to combine aeration with submersible mixing to avoid dead zones and the accumulation of silt at the bottom. By integrating an aeration system with the Série Fluxo AF Submersible Mixer, you guarantee oxygenation and suspension of solids simultaneously.

What is the difference between a surface aerator and a submersible?

The submersible aerator operates at the bottom of the tank, injecting air from the bottom up and reducing noise and aerosols in the environment, while the surface aerator agitates the upper water layer. For specific applications that require surface action, we also supply the ASP Series Low Speed ​​Surface Aerator.

Do submersible biogas aerators require a lot of maintenance?

No, total immersion aeration systems are designed for continuous operation with low need for intervention. The robust construction and high-quality materials guarantee a long service life even in chemically aggressive environments such as slurry.

How do I size the correct aerator for my effluent?

The correct sizing depends on the analysis of the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), the total volume of the tank and the geometry of the lagoon. Our engineering team carefully evaluates all these parameters to select the ideal equipment, ensuring maximum treatment efficiency in your plant.
