The EchoStorm, by Gorman-Rupp, is a range of static venturi aeration devices installed inline on the discharge side of self-priming pumps to introduce dissolved oxygen into the liquid being pumped. The liquid is moved through the internal nozzle creating a Venturi Effect. Air is drawn into the body of the EchoStorm, which mixes and oxygenates the liquid.
As these units are mounted on the bank (instead of floating on the water or being submerged in it), access is less complicated and safer, while delivering oxygen transfer outcomes. Unlike other methods of aeration, no rowboats, cranes or tethers are needed by operators to access them for monitoring, maintenance or repair.
EchoStorm units are used to reduce BOD, COD and NH3, and also used to control/eliminate algae growth and to strip substances with low Henry’s Constants such as CO2 and VOCs.
The aerator is available in a range of sizes to meet the aeration needs of multiple industries including municipal wastewater treatment, industrial wastewater treatment and potable water treatment.
