Supratec systems pay for themselves very quickly.
More efficient aeration always pays off and with Supratec this is possible at your
wastewater treatment plant as well. For the Köln-Stammheim wastewater treatment
plant, for example, Supratec can verify energy cost savings of 800,000 Euros in
the first year alone.
At the Kiel-Bülk wastewater treatment plant that was built in 1999, Supratec replaced
in 2005 the 8100 old tube diffusers on the existing piping with 5400 OXYFLEX® MF
1100's. Efficiency increased due to the larger degassing area and the low pressure
loss. The operator reported a 40 % energy saving after one year. The additional
costs incurred for installing the plate diffusers – in comparison with changing
the worn tube diffuser membranes – were generated in less than two years.
