How Vortex Powered Aeration™ (VPA) can support the soft drink industry’s triple bottom line
Typically, 2-3 litres of water are required to produce a single litre of soft drink, with vast quantities of water required for cleaning, ingredient processing, cooling, and other operational needs. This results in large volumes of wastewater needing treatment.
Aeration typically accounts for 60% of a wastewater treatment plant’s power consumption. The inefficiencies of conventional aeration methods make it challenging to comply with environmental regulations and meet corporate sustainability goals.
BENEFITS OF VPA
Vortex Powered Aeration™ (VPA™) is a groundbreaking advancement in wastewater treatment, combining efficiency, reliability, and ease of operation to address the limitations of conventional aeration methods.
Rethinking aeration can reduce carbon emissions, improve community relations and working conditions, and cut wastewater treatment costs.
FIZZY FIX
A multi-national soft drinks manufacturer has deployed VPA™ technology at their production facility in Ireland to help eliminate operational disruption caused by clogged diffusers.
The retrofitted VPA™ solution removed the possibility for clogging, cutting maintenance costs by 90 percent, alongside reducing aeration-related power consumption by 40 percent.

CASE STUDY: Carbonated beverage production facility
INDUSTRIAL BEVERAGE MBR
2 x VPA™ systems were retrofitted to 2 membrane bioreactors (MBRs) treating industrial waste from carbonated beverage production. The purpose of the upgrade was to reduce energy intensity (which resulted from existing diffuser fouling issues) and eliminate costly and unsafe tank draining processes for maintenance.
