Slot Injectors
The slot injector aeration system was introduced to the USA market in 2003. It is a proven oxygen transfer technology with over 25 years of successful operating service in Europe. The entry to the market place has focused on the food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Like the conventional jet aerator, slot injectors are two-phase liquid/gas contactors but they have very unique geometrical characteristics that result in an oxygen transfer system with distinct advantages compared to conventional jet aeration systems: Capital Savings: Up to a 60% reduction in re circulated liquid flow results in smaller and/or fewer pumps as well as significant reductions in the quantity and size of the liquid piping systems. Capital Savings: Up to a 15% reduction in air flow results in smaller blowers and/or motors. Energy Savings: The higher pressure pumping system allows for more efficient impellers. Energy Savings: Increased velocity of the jet plume allows for raising the jet nozzles and canting them downward resulting in lower pressure blowers. Energy Savings: The Injector design characteristics and performance database allows for optimizing the aeration system performance by varying both the liquid and air flow. Two phase flow control means maintaining the highest level of energy efficiency over a wide band of operating conditions. In introducing the slot injector system, KLA Systems' goal was to focus on both capital and energy savings as well as broaden our application base. The biological treatment processes we have been involved in include: Conventional and High Rate AS processes, SBR, CLR, MBR and MBBR. Since 2004 there are 22 systems in operation.

Jet Mixers
Jet mixers are used in wastewater treatment applications primarily in unit processes where liquid blending, solids suspension, flow generation or chemical reactions are key process parameters. Jet mixers are ideal for these types of applications. The superior performance of jet mixers are due to the following: The high velocity liquid stream creates a negative pressure in the mixing chamber inducing additional liquid flow through the suction inlets located circumferentially around the outer mixing jet. The transfer of horizontal momentum from the high velocity stream to the surrounding liquid entrains additional bulk flow. The thrust imparted to the bulk liquid creates a small head gain which produces a horizontal bulk fluid velocity. Jet mixing is a very effective way to distribute mixing energy while minimizing power input in large diameter reactors. The in-tank components are FRP and/or stainless steel with no moving parts. Conventional pumps are used for the jet motive flow and are located just outside the tanks for ease in maintenance. Compared to alternative mixing technologies, a KLA jet mixing system offers the following advantages.

Effluent Decanters
KLA Systems floating effluent decanters are used to draw clarified liquid from near the liquid surface of sequencing batch reactors and aerobic digesters. The design is both simple and rugged. The materials of construction are Type 304L stainless steel for the weir, draw-off pipe, swing joint support and stop supports. The floats used are high-impact, UV stabilized polyethylene with closed cell polyurethane foam. The swing joint is cast iron with permanently sealed, bronze bushings with Buna O-ring seals. Other design features are an adjustable effluent weir depth and a top vented air release. The KLA Systems floating effluent decanter has a proven track record in the industry with over 20 years of successful operation.
