Aeration

Written by three leading aeration experts, this book presents the state of the art in aeration, using examples from a variety of facilities in the USA and Europe. The authors investigate conventional and deep-tank aeration systems for BOD removal and nitrification, high-purity oxygen systems, operating and capital costs, and energy use data. They present design information on the adaptation of new aeration technologies to plants of diverse size. With the information in this book engineers and managers will be able to understand and monitor the efficiency of existing aeration systems and develop strategies for process improvement.
