Pennine Pneumatic Services has showcased Atlas Copco’s energy efficient blowers and compressors that is supporting the UK water sector’s pathway to net-zero.
Atlas Copco’s range includes the ZS3 and ZS4 oil-free rotary screw blowers, engineered with an optimised internal compression process that delivers a consistent, oil-free air stream critical for effective aeration.
These models are designed to accommodate variable airflow demands while keeping energy use and maintenance costs to a minimum.
Both blower technologies play a crucial role in reducing the significant energy footprint of wastewater treatment operations - a need underscored by the Water UK Net Zero 2030 Routemap, which highlights high efficiency blowers as part of a technology led pathway to reducing carbon emissions.
“In many wastewater treatment plants, air blowers account for up to 70% of a facility’s energy use – a shocking figure that highlights the urgent need for efficiency improvements,” said Andy Martlew, national sales manager, Pennine Pneumatic Services.
“Our energy efficient low pressure blowers and compressors deliver tangible energy savings and support the water sector’s net-zero ambitions.”
