How Jet Aeration System Works

The pretreatment compartment receives the wastewater and partially treats it physically and biologically at the same time allowing solid matter to settle.

The pretreated water entering the aeration compartment is injected with fresh air to provide oxygen. During this mixing process huge numbers of microorganisms, called a biomass, attach themselves to the pretreatment water. These organisms rapidly convert the wastewater to a colorless, odorless liquid.

The settling compartment separates any remaining fine particle and returns them to the treatment compartment.

The treated wastewater flows through the chlorinator where it comes in contact with JET-CHLOR chlorine tablets. The tablets gradually dissolve and slowly release even, controlled amounts of active chlorine into the treated wastewater. Final treated cololess and odorless liquid leaves the JET Plant environmentally safe.
