Following the devastating fire at Bromley WWTP last November, council elected to convert two of their 49m diameter clarifiers to high-energy, aerobic reactors.
Aeris Global was awarded the contract in December on the proviso the system was operational by the end of March.
The contract includes design, supply, and installation of a 600kW emergency aeration system consisting of eight 75kW aquaturbo® Model AER-AS Floating Surface Aerators along with a proprietary aercable® Safe Access, Cable Management System.
With exceptional support from Aquaturbo Systems, WEG, and TR Industries, Aeris Global successfully delivered the equipment to site in February!
The logistical challenge involved airfreighting 14-tonnes of equipment from USA, Brazil and Australia with numerous ancillary components coming from NZ suppliers or manufactured by Aeris Global in Wanaka.
Aeris Global Field Services installed the system this week.
