Product Overview This floating surface aerator combines oxygen transfer and hydraulic mixing for the aerobic treatment of livestock wastewater. It is suited to pig farm treatment lagoons, equalization basins and other open wastewater tanks where liquid levels may vary. The floating assembly can be positioned within an existing basin without a permanent bridge-mounted drive structure. Equipment selection should follow the wastewater load, basin geometry and required treatment process.
Key Features
  • Provides surface aeration and circulation in one floating unit.
  • Can accommodate changing water levels when paired with a suitable mooring arrangement.
  • Allows access from the basin edge or retrieval point for inspection and servicing.
  • Material, float and motor options can be selected for the wastewater and local climate.
  • Suitable for integration into new pig farm wastewater facilities or upgrades to existing lagoons.
Structural Components A typical assembly comprises an electric motor, drive shaft, impeller or propeller, water intake, discharge head or deflector, buoyant float, support frame, lifting points and mooring connections. Component design and materials are selected according to the project requirements.
Working Principle The motor drives an impeller that draws wastewater toward the unit and disperses it across the surface. Contact between the moving water and air promotes oxygen transfer. The returning flow also circulates the basin contents, helping distribute dissolved oxygen and keep suspended material moving within the treatment zone.
Technical Specifications
  • Motor power and electrical supply: According to project requirements.
  • Float and wetted-part materials: Customizable.
  • Impeller and discharge arrangement: Available upon request.
  • Mooring and lifting arrangement: Designed according to basin layout and water-level variation.
  • Quantity and placement: Determined by oxygen demand, mixing duty, basin dimensions and wastewater characteristics.
Applications Commercial pig farm wastewater lagoons, livestock wastewater treatment basins, aerobic polishing ponds, equalization tanks and other open-basin agricultural wastewater projects. Pretreatment may be required where manure fibers, grit or large solids could obstruct the intake or impeller.
Customization Options Motor selection, corrosion-resistant materials, float configuration, mooring layout, lifting provision and control interface can be discussed for each project. Selection should account for wastewater composition, local climate, available power, basin construction and the wider pig farm treatment process.
Installation & Maintenance Position the unit to provide the intended circulation pattern while maintaining clearance from basin walls, liners and other equipment. Secure the mooring system, route and protect the power cable, and verify rotation and operating current during commissioning. Routine service includes checking the impeller and intake for debris, inspecting floats and moorings, and maintaining the motor in accordance with its supplied instructions.
Product FAQ

Can it operate when the lagoon water level changes?
The floating assembly follows the water surface. The mooring and cable arrangement must be designed for the site's expected level range.

How is the required aerator size determined?
Selection depends on oxygen demand, mixing needs, wastewater characteristics, basin geometry and operating schedule. Share these project details for an appropriate proposal.

Can it be added to an existing pig farm lagoon?
In many cases, yes. The lagoon's depth, liner, access, power supply and mooring locations should be reviewed before installation.
