Challenge
To control and manage the growing inflow, William Head Treatment Plant, located southwest of Victoria, BC, decided to increase their capacity and extend their facility. This project consisted of construction and related work.
Solutions
Proposed to use a submersible jet aerator (JA117) combined with a Flygt 3153 / 20 HP submersible motor and a medium head impeller. The Jet Aerator delivered 10 kg O2 / hr which according to WorleyParsons was optimum. The Jet Aerator was 600 volts / 3 phase. To use on-site power, a 208 volts / 3 phase to 600 volts / 3 phase 25 KVA step up transformer was used.
