goon was not responding to the installed surface aerators, plant engineering manager Byron Boyers contacted Hydro Innova- tions for advice.
Hydro Innovations rec- ommended using two of its Gorman-Rupp Echo-Storm Venturi aerators.
AJ Bush and Sons oper- ates the largest rendering facility in Australia, lo- cated within the state de- velopment area of Bro- melton, Queensland.

was the beauty of the Echo- Storm Venturi aeration system.
Gorman-Rupp’s Echo- Storm Venturi aerators are available in four sizes – 50, 75, 100 and 150mm – and are very popular with com- panies and organisations wanting to improve safety and reduce maintenance costs associated with run- ning their aeration systems.
Meat by-products are pro- cessed through six different rendering process lines, and the company received a Climate Alliance Award for site emissions reduc- tion.
The solution
This was the perfect solu- tion for Mr Boyers because he was able to re-purpose an already existing- Gorman-Rupp pump.
He also said that due to unimpeded access, instal- lation was a “breeze.”
The results
The issue
These are bank-mounted aerators that use self- priming pumps to ‘drive’ them.
Mr Boyers said that one of the first requirements when selecting equipment was ease of access – this
“The visual colour of the water and surrounding odour has significantly im- proved within a week of installation,” he said.

The benefits of using the solution
Mr Boyers and his team are extremely happy with the outcome of the project.
