BioMix™ Compressed Gas Mixing Systems provide uniform mixing of tank contents by firing programmed, short duration bursts of compressed air through patented, engineered nozzles located near the tank floor. Adjustable mixing parameters optimize mixing and power utilization, either through operator input or automated process feedback. The BioMix system is ideally suited for numerous wastewater applications, either as a standalone system or a comprehensive system that leverages centralized compressors and controls.

  • 60% or greater reduction in power usage compared to alternative technologies    
  • Maintenance free, self-cleaning, and non-clogging components in the tank
  • Adjustable parameters for ideal mixed conditions without deposition
  • Complete mixing with proven negligible oxygen transfer 
  • Easy integration with aeration equipment for concurrent or independent operation

BioMix Technology Explainer Video

In a BioMix system, a centralized compressor charges the receiver tank, which supplies compressed air to the valve module. The valve module controls the firing parameters, delivering compressed air in short duration bursts through engineered nozzles. Large air volumes expand upward and outward, providing fluid displacement without introducing measurable oxygen. 

By uniformly distributing mixing energy across the basin floor, BioMix systems provide a proven 60% or greater reduction in power usage versus mechanical mixers and even more versus diffused air mixing. One BioMix compressor may be used to mix dozens of tanks, while mechanical mixers require at least one unit per basin. Conventional solutions require diffusers, blowers, motive pumps, impellers, and more, but the BioMix system utilizes a centralized compressor system that minimizes maintenance and maximizes energy efficiency. 

Straightforward Operation

All in-tank components of a BioMix system are maintenance free, non-clogging, and self-cleaning. Out-of-tank components (compressors, receivers, and air control valves) require minimal maintenance in controlled environments, and electrical requirements are limited to the power needed to operate the air compressor and the valve modules.

Process Optimization

The BioMix system utilizes adjustable firing parameters (pressure, sequence, duration, and frequency) that enable ideal mixed conditions without deposition. The system provides complete mixing with proven negligible oxygen transfer. BioMix equipment easily integrates with aeration equipment for swing zone and mixing limited applications, operating concurrent with or independent from aeration for optimized process conditions.

Unparalleled Flexibility

BioMix systems are able to accommodate multiple applications, leveraging common compressors and controls. Patented nozzles and headers are compatible with any tank geometry or configuration, and circular headers conform to the slope of the tank floor, eliminating “dead spots.” The system is able to mix through a range of operating depths and mix sludge at concentrations up to 8% solids.
