Water treatment

Why Wastewater Treatment Needs Oxygen?

Wastewater treatment relies on aerobic bacteria – these bacteria require oxygen to function effectively. Oxygen is pumped into the wastewater tank to encourage the growth of bacteria and enhance highly bacteriological survival and regeneration.
Using concentrated oxygen for water treatment is a simple, economical process with proven effectiveness. At Novair, we understand the critical role oxygen plays in wastewater treatment. Our advanced oxygen solutions ensure efficient breakdown of organic waste by the millions of beneficial bacteria that live within treatment tanks.

Boost your water treatment plant, while reducing environmental pollution: Using pure oxygen in the aerobic biological treatment of wastewater speeds up the degradation of organic compounds in the water. Injecting pure oxygen into the tanks reduces foaming, odors, and VOC emissions.
Protect your wastewater pipes against H2S: Injecting pure oxygen into wastewater pipes prevents the emission of hydrogen sulfide (H2S). Pure oxygen brings wastewater into an aerobic condition, protecting pipes from H2S-related corrosion.
Feed your ozone generator: Using pure oxygen enables you to achieve the highest ozone concentrations. This significantly improves the energy efficiency of ozone generators.
