Aquaturbo® FB - wastewater foam removal system

Aquaturbo^® FB foam breaker aspirates and breaks foam generated at the surface of biological treatment basins to improve bio-digestion.

Foam is drawn into the volute where the degassing tube allows air to vent to atmosphere and liquid to re-entrain.

Nothing is discharged from the basin.

Key features

• Blockage free and high flow volute

• Unique air/liquid separation and discharge

• Reliable and non-clogging impeller

• Simple installation and removal

Applications

• High FOG treating biological reactors

• High foaming influent

• Thermophilic reactors

• Biological treatment of animal waste

How it works

The foam is aspirated by a helicoidally shaped impeller (SCREWPELLER®), which is driven by a submersible motor through the central tube. Its IP68 motor is perfectly protected against hostile environments.

At the level of the helicoidally shaped impeller, the foam is broken. The liquid phase is evacuated through the bottom of the central tube. A flotation device allows the FB to follow the water level variations in the basin.
