GE Energy Roots Wastewater Aeration Controls *
GE Energy offers advanced aeration solution technology to the wastewater industry. In 1931, the Roots-Connersville Blower Company became the first blower manufacturer to apply positive displacement blower technology to the wastewater process. Just five short years later, we were the first manufacturer to apply centrifugal blowers to the process. With the 2011 acquisition of Dresser*, GE maintains a reputation for world-class efficiency, ingenuity, durability and reliability.
Why aeration controls? Process Efficiency There are many reasons to add aeration controls: When trying to create an efficient aeration process, too often the focus is on the efficiency of the blowers. Newer technology has provided some improvements in blower efficiency, but we’re only talking improvements of a few percentage points. Automated aeration controls can provide savings that are far greater than this, by reducing the major source of process inefficiency, namely excess aeration.
Control Solutions Roots Controls – available as integral system with Roots aeration blowers and solutions. Wastewater OEMs – can take advantage of including our controls with their equipment for enhanced system performance. Revamp – extends aeration system life and optimizes performance by replacing obsolete controls with advanced standard or customized control systems and solutions to meet your needs.
