SSI agent PCI Africa in South Africa has completed the installation of SSI tube diffusers at the Vredefort sewage treatment plant. Below are some photos of the installation.
We will post photos of the Margate WWTP project shortly. Thanks to James Blair of PCI Africa for sharing these with us.
Below are some photos from the SSI Snappy Saddle Fine Bubble Tube Diffuser installation at the City of Newburgh, New York. In one photo you will see one of the mechanical aerators being replaced. Severn Trent operates the plant, and it is expected that the upgrade will reduce energy consumption by 50%.
We are deeply saddened to report that one of SSI’s first US reps, Jim Tegethoff, of the former Russel H. Smith Equipment Co. of Ohio, has passed away.
Though an accomplished Engineer and business owner and more recently a 5S member (Select Society of the Sanitary Sludge Shovelers), Jim would humbly refer to himself as a “peddler”. Jim was an avid reader and family man, and had retired and passed his business on to his daugher Laura and son in law Paul some years ago.
Jim was involved in fine bubble and coarse bubble diffuser installations at Xenia, Ohio, Piqua, Ohio, Pleasant Valley, Ohio, among others.
He will be dearly missed.
From April 28-30, 2009, Shanghai GSD exhibited SSI fine bubble diffusers, coarse bubble diffusers and complete aeration systems at the China Water Show (CWS 2009) in Shanghai.
Todd Ritter of SSI attended the show to support the GSD effort. The show was attended by 35,000 people from all over China. Just 5 years ago, the same show attracted only 10,000 people. SSI PTFE diffusers were very popular. Read the rest of this entry »
Have a look at some photos of the SSI Snappy Saddle tube diffuser installation at Al Maktoum International Airport within the Jebel Ali Free Trade Zone in Dubai, UAE. Due to the high temperature workers arrive at 4 am and leave the jobsite at 11 am. The diffusers are covered when the workers are gone to protect them from UV and heat. Read the rest of this entry »
