Transforming Wastewater Treatment with RAETTS Air Bearing Blowers in Henan
Wastewater treatment plants around the world face a common challenge: how to reduce energy consumption and operational costs while improving efficiency and reliability. In Henan, China, one municipal wastewater treatment plant took a decisive step forward by upgrading its aeration system with RAETTS air bearing blowers.
This project involved the installation of four 100kW turbo blowers, designed to replace traditional blowers that were outdated, inefficient, and costly to maintain. The upgrade not only brought immediate improvements in performance but also aligned with the plant’s long-term sustainability goals.
Why Upgrade to Air Bearing Blowers?
Traditional roots blowers and mechanical blowers often struggle with high power consumption, frequent maintenance, and limited efficiency. In contrast, RAETTS air bearing blowers are engineered with advanced aerodynamic design and precision manufacturing.
Key advantages include:
-
High energy efficiency – Reduced electricity consumption by up to 30–40% compared to conventional blowers.
-
Oil-free operation – 100% clean air with no risk of oil contamination.
-
Low noise – Creating a safer and quieter working environment for operators.
-
Minimal maintenance – Air bearing technology eliminates the need for lubrication and frequent service.
For wastewater treatment plants, where aeration is the single largest energy consumer, these benefits translate into significant cost savings and improved reliability.
Project Overview: Henan Wastewater Plant
-
Location: Henan Province, China
-
Equipment Installed: 4 × 100kW RAETTS air bearing blowers
-
Application: Aeration in municipal wastewater treatment
-
Goal: Reduce energy consumption and maintenance costs while improving plant efficiency
Before the upgrade, the Henan wastewater treatment plant was relying on outdated blowers that consumed large amounts of electricity and required regular maintenance. The management team sought a solution that would modernize operations and support sustainability initiatives.
Immediate Results After Installation
Since the installation of RAETTS air bearing blowers, the Henan wastewater plant has reported:
✅ Energy Savings – Significant reduction in electricity consumption during aeration, leading to lower operating costs.
✅ Noise Reduction – A quieter plant environment, improving working conditions for staff.
✅ Operational Reliability – Continuous, stable performance with less downtime compared to traditional blowers.
✅ Environmental Benefits – Oil-free and energy-efficient operation supports China’s national push for greener, more sustainable wastewater management.
Broader Impact on Wastewater Treatment in China
This Henan case is not an isolated example. Across China, more and more municipal projects are embracing turbo blower technology to replace traditional equipment. With growing pressure on energy costs and environmental regulations, RAETTS is helping wastewater treatment plants modernize and reduce their carbon footprint.
The trend is clear: air bearing and maglev blowers are becoming the preferred choice for energy-efficient wastewater aeration.
