Aeration tanks

Aeration tanks are facilities used in wastewater treatment to introduce air into water. This process encourages the growth of bacteria that break down organic matter and pollutants. As air is mixed into the water, the bacteria consume the waste, effectively cleaning the water. The aeration process also helps maintain oxygen levels, which is essential for the bacteria's survival and activity. After treatment in the aeration tank, the water is typically sent to further processing steps to remove remaining solids and contaminants, ensuring it is safe for discharge or reuse.
