In conventional clarifiers particles with a higher gravity than waste water will settle down to the tank bottom over time. The closer the gravity of the particles is to the one of waste water as longer takes the settlement process and as larger the clarifiers have to be build. Lamella clarifiers are a very cost effective alternative to conventional clarifiers as they reduce the needed tank volume by 2 to 4 times. Lamella clarifiers consist of multiple channels that function as additional surface area to reduce the settling path of the particles in the waste water. AET provides consulting and lamella clarifier systems consisting of lamella clarifier plate settlers, support- and anti-floating structure, sludge removal and effluent launders.

AET provides engineering design support and product solutions for supporting and anti-floating structures for any tank geometry (including round tanks) and in different materials such as stainless steel, aluminum and FRP.

AET provides standalone, modular tube settler units consisting of tube settler/ lamella clarifier packs, support structure, effluent troughs, sludge removal and tank. The tanks are available in round or rectangular shapes as well as stainless steel, FRP or PE material. If required, the tanks can be equipped with an additional mixing chamber for chemical dosing.

Wastewater treatment systems using biofilms that grow attached to a support media can be either an alternative or an improvement to the widely used suspended growth activated sludge process. When the system is operated with a single pass and without return sludge it is called FBBR (Fixed bed Biofilm reactor) or MBBR (Moving bed bio reactor). Especially for industrial pretreatment FBBRs are a good and advantageous alternative to activated sludge processes. If the system is operated with return sludge it is called IFAS (Integrated Fixed- Film activated sludge). IFAS systems are an easy and effective way to upgrade an existing activated sludge process by increasing the sludge amount (MLSS) in the aeration basin by up to 50%.

Fill media packs in biofilm attached growth applications need a support and restraint system. On the one hand, this system must provide enough strength to hold the fill media in position regardless of occurring water and air turbulence. Not only that, but the system must withstand high loadings due to the weight of fill media and Biofilm growth on the fill media surface. On the other hand, the package system must allow even air and water distribution without blocking any of the fill media channel openings.

AET provides standalone, modular fixed bed reactor units consisting of fill media packs, support structure, aeration, inlet/outlet and tank. The tanks are available in round or rectangular shapes as well as stainless steel, FRP or PE material. If required, we can also supply blowers and controls.

Disc, tube and strip diffusers for fixed grid aeration systems available in EPDM, silicone and PU.

The Jaeger-aeration retrievable strip diffuser rack systems provide a multi-level system redundancy and a fast and easy
way to maintain diffusers without basin dewatering. The diffuser racks can be designed for any tank geometry (rectangular, round, toroidal) and mounted to basin walls as well as bridges or catwalks. Better oxygen transfer of fine bubble strip diffusers and DO load dependent air supply decrease overall power costs by up to 25%.

Turnkey aeration solutions for activated sludge applications including:
