Design, installation, start-up tests and commissioning of an aeration system in the covered distribution channels, upstream of the sand filters.

This project was driven by operational issues with settlement of fine particles, found in the raw water, in the distribution channels upstream of the sand filters. Removal of the settled particles was very difficult, done manually and very infrequently. This project installed an aeration system, with parameters established by means of tests carried out by Aeration Systems Ltd., which completely resolved the issues with settlement in the channels.
