Benefits

  • Effective Wastewater Treatment

    Providing powerful pumping action, the EcoJet™ aerator transfers oxygen by breaking up wastewater into a spray of particles. This action creates more surface area for atmospheric pressure to drive oxygen into the wastewater. At the same time, the oxygen-enriched water is dispersed and mixed. The entire process offers more efficient wastewater treatment for municipalities and industrial applications.
