WesTech - Model Landy 7 - Surface Aerator
From Wastewater Aerator
The most recent advancement to surface aerator technology can be seen in the LANDY-7 impeller. The Landy impellers have always incorporated a sturdy design with zero failures due to cracked, sheared, or broken impeller blades. This new impeller increases oxygen transfer efficiency and reduces axial and radial loads. The LANDY-7 provides a guaranteed minimum efficiency of 3.8 pounds of oxygen per horsepower hour. This improved transfer efficiency saves significant operational costs over the life of the equipment. The reduced axial and radial loads increase the life of the drive unit and reduce the size of support structures and beams for the surface aerators.
History
Landustrie BV has been a pioneer in the technology of slow speed surface aerators since the 1960’s. The LANDY-F impeller from Landustrie has been extensively tested and later certified for use in oxidation ditch systems by the Carrousel® patent holder, DHV Water BV. Hydraulic models were then developed from full-scale installations to predict the channel velocity given the basin dimensions, proper impeller selection, impeller submergence, and aerator horsepower. Using this hydraulic model, Landustrie has installed their LANDY-F impeller throughout the world. With over 500 surface aerator installations and their research and development program, Landustrie has established themselves as a leader in surface aeration technology.
Research and Development
Landustrie continues their effort to advance impeller technology since they first started over 40 years ago. Landustrie conducts research and development of surface aerators with the use of their 500,000-gallon test tank in Sneek, Netherlands pictured below. The experienced engineers at Landustrie have the ability to test the oxygen transfer efficiency, mixing efficiency, torque, vibration, axial forces, and radial forces. Landustrie has also been contracted by direct competitors to test other types of impellers over different operational ranges. Over the past six years, Landustrie has conducted several studies on their next generation LANDY-7 impeller. From their test tank data and fullscale testing at several wastewater treatment plants, Landustrie can officially document and guarantee the benefits of the new LANDY-7 impeller.

Applications
-
Municipal wastewater solutions for biological treatment industry - Water and Wastewater
A well-designed wastewater plant starts with your effluent requirements and an energy-efficient biological process. WesTech has multiple biological process options to match your application and preference. From trickling filters to oxidation ditches, WesTech`s biological process equipment will give you the effluent quality you need and the foundation for a successful wastewater plant.
-
Mining & minerals solutions for acid mine drainage industry - Mining
Acid mine drainage (AMD) is typically characterized by low pH and high dissolved iron. The acid mine drainage may also contain high amounts of CO2 which forms carbonic acid and further depresses the pH.
-
Industrial solutions for heavy metals removal - Metal
Heavy Metals Wastewater Treatment System (Chrome Removal): Chromium is present in the wastewaters of a number of industries, including: stainless steel manufacturing, protective coatings on metal, magnetic tapes, chrome plating, tanneries, textile dyes production, pigments and paint production, production of cement, paper, rubber, etc. Chromium is typically precipitated in two steps: reduction and precipitation.
