Bidirectional Mix Jet Aerators (BMJA)

Flexible aeration systems for rectangular or circular municipal lagoons. Features independent pump and blower operation for energy optimization, with multiple units configurable for large-scale treatment facilities requiring bidirectional flow patterns.

Packaged Aeration Systems

Complete turnkey packaged aeration systems with pumps, blowers, aerators and piping. Ideal for municipalities requiring compact, efficient batch treatment processes with automated operation and minimal operator intervention.

Custom Lagoon Aeration Design

Computer-aided engineering of specialized aeration systems tailored to your municipality's unique lagoon configuration, treatment goals, and budget. Includes deep tank operation capability and variable air flow control for seasonal demand changes.

Hydraulic Sludge Mixing

Dedicated hydraulic mixing systems for municipal sludge management applications. Maintains solids suspension in digester tanks and sludge holding basins, preventing settling and ensuring consistent treatment without compressed air requirements.

Proven Municipal Solutions

Advanced Aeration Technology for Superior Treatment Performance

Municipal wastewater lagoons face unique challenges requiring robust, reliable aeration systems. Our submerged jet aeration technology creates multiple oxygen transfer zones—from fine bubble generation in high-shear nozzles to horizontal plume travel maintaining extended gas-liquid contact—delivering superior mass transfer rates. With all mechanical components positioned outside the basin for easy maintenance and no in-basin moving parts, our systems operate virtually maintenance-free while achieving energy reductions up to 40% compared to conventional diffused air systems.

"We can't really tell how well it is mixing but it must be doing its job. Bugs are growing and we're making gas!"

Food & Beverage client with Covered Anaerobic Digester lagoon

"There is no doubt that the system is doing exactly what it was intended to do, thank you for working with us to make this project successful."

Industrial processing client

"Your system was really simple and straightforward to install. Thanks so much!"

Municipal Industry General Contractor

"The thermal imaging is telling us that your mixing system is working as designed and our solids accumulating should no longer be a concern. This is great news, thank you for working with us Amit and I hope we can do more work with you in the future."

Petrochemical industry client

"Just to let you know, the tank mixer we installed is still operating and working extremely well… we haven't had to enter the tank to clean it since it was installed and is scheduled for its routine inspection next year!"

Chemical industry client

"Your jet mixers are working better than anticipated! We have not had to enter tank 7 since your jet mixer was installed… 5 years ago, we went from annual cleanings to potentially having it on 5-year intervals or more! The eddy mixers we installed on tanks 11 & 12 are..."

Industrial manufacturing client

"I am very pleased with the results I see. For the most part the EQ tank is self-neutralizing. That is the main goal of the EQ tank's mixing system. There are few instances when the tank gets to >70% full and hasn't neutralized and chemicals must be added."

Food & Beverage client

"I just spoke to our Manager who has been intimate with the project operation, he stated confidently that all is running really well with the Tunnel Dewatering Pump Station (TDPS) mixing equipment / flushing nozzles."

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an aeration lagoon?

An aeration lagoon is a shallow wastewater treatment basin that uses mechanical or diffused aeration to supply oxygen for biological treatment. These lagoons rely on aerobic bacteria to break down organic matter, requiring consistent oxygen distribution throughout the basin for effective treatment performance.
