The application of Turblex centrifugal compressors, blowers, instrumentation and controls falls into two major areas:
Wastewater Aeration
The biological wastewater aeration process requires large volumes of low pressure (5 - 20 psig) air. Notably, wastewater aeration consumes about 60 percent of the total power of the entire wastewater treatment plant. Likewise, air demand varies throughout the day. The Turblex unit, with its ultra-high efficiency and variable air discharge of 45 to 100 of percent capacity, is ideally suited to this application. Turblex aeration blowers can significantly reduce power (operating) costs versus competitive units, or by replacing existing blower equipment.
Industrial Process
Turblex/HV-Turbo single-stage centrifugal compressors are widely used in utility flue gas desulphurization and yeast fermentation. Khnle, Kopp & Kausch compressors are used industry-wide in the petroleum and continuous processing industry, while Schiele turbo fans are the industry leader in mechanical vapor recompression. Coupled with Turblex' instrumentation and packaging expertise, these units are the industry leaders in efficiency, reliability, and performance.
