Aquastore tanks can be installed with a variety of roofs based on operating and loading requirements. The Aquastore vitrium glass offers excellent resistance to the harsh enviroment found in digesters.
Aerobic Digestion - An open system that utilizes oxygen and biologically treats waste with naturally occurring organisms.
Commonly used for a smaller scale projects with a lower capitalization. These digesters can be outfitted with or without a dome roof. If odour becomes an issue in time, we can easily come back and install a roof at that time.
Any required mixers and/or piping can be easily installed in any Aquastore tank.
