Revolutionizing
the whole concept of
decontamination facilitie
Making the impossible possible!
The AIS eliminates sludge treatment
and achieves zero hydrogen sulfide

Until now, it would have been thought unbelievable:
Compliance with sewage discharge standards
achieved with only the Aquablaster aeration
diffusion apparatus and bio-drip!
Plus, no generation of sludge or hydrogen sulfide!!

Revolutionizing the whole concept of
decontamination facilities*
resolves all
kinds of wastewater issues simultaneously,
and achieves significant cost reductions.
AienceInnovativeSystem* Decontamination facilities are installed in advance at the entryways to sewers to accept sewer water.

What is the AIS?
The AIS (Aience Innovative System) is an unprecedented wastewater treatment technologythat uses the Aquablaster aeration diffusion apparatus to carry out
milling / stirring aeration, promoting the totally aerobic respirationof high-performance bacteria so that sludge treatment is unnecessary and zero hydrogen sulfide is achieved.

By introducing Aquablaster into
existing equipment, we eliminatedthe need for pressurized flotation
unit.

With the introduction of AIS, oil andsludge have vanished and the plant
has been operating without trouble tothis day.

With pressurized flotation units
removed and processing carried out
with Aquablaster alone, water can bedischarged to sewers.

The number of tanks was cut in halfand AIS installed. Sludge has
vanished, and the system wasinstalled in a new factory as well.

If you still can’t believe that “SS and unpleasant odors
can be removed with no pressurized flotation device…”

Seeing is believing! Have a look at one of the sites where the AIS is installed.

1How does theAIS

AienceInnovative
Systemprocess wastewater so effectively?

Conventional decontamination facilities

AIS

Designconcept

Because a conventional air volume formula are used, there is no
margin of error, and issues cannot be resolved if they arise.

With our own original theory based on our experience and trackrecord, we created an energy-efficient design that leaves ample
breathing room, achieving optimal power-down, without generating sludge and hydrogen sulfide.

Air volume

It conforms to the conventional design formula, and there is norisk of insufficient air even if hydrogen sulfide is generated.

With this original theoretical formula derived from actual results, thesystem can deal with the actual load at each site.

Air diffuser

In a conventional diffuser, oxygen dissolution efficiency andconvective stirring power inside the tank are low, and the pressure loss is high, resulting in high consumption of electricity.

By contrast, the milling / stirring aeration of our patented technology
Aquablaster supplies oxygen efficiently supplied with almost zeropressure loss and minimal power consumption.

Preprocessing

Relies on pressurized flotation, and sludge treatment costs areincurred.In addition, the equalizing tank often generates hydrogen sulfide.

Pre-processing begins with Aquablaster milling / stirring aeration in
the equalizing tank, so hydrogen sulfide is not generated.

Degradingbacteria

Conventional activated sludge bacteria: High-performancebacteria are sometimes used, but if oxygen is scarce, it isuseless and decomposition is only partial.

Here, activated sludge is not used, but introduction of high-performance bacteria by intravenous drip enables totally aerobic respiration, thoroughly converting organic matter to ATP..

People believe it is natural for sludge to be generated, and that
SS (suspended solids) cannot be eliminated.

However, with Aquablaster milling / stirring aeration SS (suspendedsolids) are easily reduced to below wastewater discharge levels,and we have an 18-year track record to prove it.

Pressurized flotation device
caused stench (leading tocomplaints from neighbors),
and sludge processing costs
were high.

Newinstallation

Pressurized flotation device eliminated, for totally aerobic treatment that
does not generate bad smells. As a result, sewer surcharge fees were also
reduced.

12 million yen / year

Renovation

A facility installed by a major company received a local government directive
to improve due to its poor processing. An Aquablaster system was added tothe existing 60-ton water tank, and with a blaster tank installed in the latterstage, approved wastewater discharge levels were achieved. Severe putrefaction odors were also eliminated, and floating oils and fats caught by thegrease trap in the preceding stage were also dissolved in the treatment tank.

8 million yen / year

Renovation

Existing water tank was halved and divided into six tanks with the AIS
installed. As a result, sludge generation was eliminated, and the maintenance team went from two persons to zero. Aience guarantees 24-hour
aeration, but it is used for 16-hour aeration at this site. The system’s performance was evaluated highly, and a special order was given for it to be
introduced at a second new factory.

15 million yen / year

Renovation

The client was uneasy after being told by one of our major competitors thatelimination of SS (suspended solids) was impossible, but felt confident
introducing the system after seeing the wastewater treatment performanceat the above-mentioned central kitchen. As a result, no sludge at all wasgenerated for a year and a half, and BOD / SS are in the double digits andN-hex in the single digits.
