Revolutionising Aeration Efficiency with INVENT iTURBO®-Blowers

13/03/2025 By Gen Lynch

At JIPL, we are committed to providing cutting-edge, energy-efficient solutions for wastewater treatment. As part of this mission, we have successfully installed and commissioned four INVENT iTURBO®-Blowers at the Rotorua Wastewater Treatment Plant. We have installed three of four blowers at the Green Bay Wastewater Treatment Plant and plan to install three more at Shotover soon.

The INVENT iTURBO®-Blower is a game-changer in aeration technology, offering unparalleled energy efficiency, reduced maintenance, and superior reliability. Here’s how this advanced blower technology is transforming wastewater treatment across New Zealand.

Why the iTURBO®-Blower?

Aeration is a critical process in wastewater treatment, accounting for up to 60% of a plant’s total energy consumption. The iTURBO®-Blower is designed to optimise airflow, reduce energy costs, and improve overall system performance.

Key Benefits of the iTURBO®-Blower:

  • Up to 30% Energy Savings – Compared to conventional blowers, iTURBO® significantly lowers operational costs.
  • High-Speed Direct Drive Technology – A Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) ensures peak efficiency with minimal energy losses.
  • Compact, Lightweight Design – The fully integrated system includes a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), turbo-impeller, and control system in one unit.
  • Low Maintenance – Designed for long-term reliability, maintenance is limited to simple air filter changes.
  • Ultra-Quiet Operation – Advanced sound-reduction features keep noise levels below 78 dB(A), making it one of the quietest blowers on the market.
  • Advanced Digital Control – A user-friendly HD touchscreen HMI provides real-time monitoring and precise airflow adjustments.
