Rethink your biosolids management strategy
Often times the biosolids management portion of the treatment plant may not be optimized, resulting in inefficient operation of the entire treatment plant. For instance, did you know that aerobic digestion is the second largest consumer of energy after biological treatment aeration at a wastewater treatment plant? Or, do you realize that up to 50% of the nutrient loading on any given day may be coming from the biosolids process?
Consider a complete solution for your aerobic digester. Vorelodos aerobic digester combines equipment, controls, and service, to offer a solution that ensures wastewater treatment plants meet regulations while reducing operational costs.
Meet regulations while saving money
By focusing on optimizing the operation of the aerobic digester, the Vorelodos solution provides:
Up to 90% reduction in nitrogen and phosphorus returned to the main treatment process
Wastewater treatment plant process stabilization through reduction of nutrient spikes to the main plant
Reuse of biosolids for agricultural purposes
Energy consumption in the aerobic digester reduced up to 90%
Lower chemical use due to alkalinity recovery and reduction in phosphorus return to main plant
Automated decanting to free up operations staffs’ time

Sanitaire Silver Series II LP Membrane Aeration
Xylem's Sanitaire Silver Series II LP membrane aeration system is used in aerobic digestion to maximize standard oxygen transfer efficiency (SOTE) and save energy.
The Sanitaire Silver Series II LP, a 9-inch low-pressure version of the Silver Series II membrane, is ideal for aerobic digestion applications. Each diffuser can handle airflow up to 17 Nm(3)/h (10 scfm), with minimal pressure loss. A highly effective, integrated check valve prevents plugging and enables aeration to be easily turned on and off for optimal process control and energy savings.
Sanitaire Decanter
Xylem’s Sanitaire Decanter is used to remove supernatant from aerobic digesters, enabling higher solids concentrations, smaller footprint, and lower capital costs. The automated decanter results in substantial labor savings over time compared to traditional manual digester decanters. Manufactured using rugged, corrosion-resistant, stainless steel construction, it decants from the top down, visibly withdrawing only the uppermost clear water from the basin. The decanter features an integrated floating scum baffle to ensure the supernatant is free from unwanted matter, and includes a variable frequency drive allowing for a range of decant speeds. It also provides ease of access and maintenance as the actuator and drive are mounted outside of the basin at walkway level. Additionally, the decanter acts as an emergency overflow device when not actively decanting as it is parked above top water level when not in operation.
Sanitaire OSCAR Process Performance Optimizer
OSCAR process performance optimizer is included with each aerobic digester solution ensuring smart control, process visibility and optimization. The OSCAR system includes a process control panel (PLC, HMI, Webport, etc.), YSI instrumentation (DO, ORP, NH4, NO3 and/or K), and process controllers (time-based control, DO control, ORP control, and/or DINO nutrient control).
Flygt Sludge Pumps
Robust submersible Flygt pumps are included to provide reliable, low maintenance pumping of digested biosolids to downstream processes or disposal.
Flygt Mixers
Efficient Flygt submersible mixers (i.e. 4320 mixers) are provided to ensure proper mixing while minimizing maintenance and energy consumption.
Blowers
A diverse portfolio of blower technologies are available to suit any aeration need. These reliable, energy-efficient, and easy to maintain blowers optimize diffused aeration systems.
