Howden Water Technology
Howden Water Technology is Howden's centre of excellence for turbo compressors and associated equipment for the waste water industry. Howden's strength lies in our comprehensive understanding of the application process, and we bring expertise in compressor technology, distributed control technology and the downstream aeration process for waste water treatment facilities.
When compared to traditional turbo compressors or mechanical aerators our energy efficient systems provide significant savings, and with over a thousand installations worldwide, Howden turbo compressors are the proven, reliable choice for optimal performance.
Howden has been supplying blowers to waste water treatment plants for over fifty years. By combining our high-efficiency turbo blowers with sophisticated downstream control systems developed specifically for waste water treatment, we can offer advanced, efficient and reliable systems.
The need to minimise energy consumption, whether for cost or environmental benefit, has become a significant factor and it is the aeration system which accounts for the largest proportion of the energy consumed in any aerobic waste water treatment plant.
Howden offers a choice of twelve frame sizes with a capacity range from 2,000 to 83,000 ACFM (2,000 to 128,000 N/m3/hr) covering the most extensive duty range on the market. With the widest volume and pressure range available Howden can deliver achievable efficiency levels exceeding 87%.
Howden's turbo compressors and downstream control systems provide a new benchmark for energy efficiency and control with expertise built on experience and world class application engineering.
