Commercial
Package
Wastewater Treatment Plants solve wastewater problems. They
make it possible for motels and service stations to be built
along interstate highways far from towns...subdivisions
to be planned in scenic areas miles beyond sewer lines...factories
to be located on outlying sites.
JET's
Package Plants operate on the extended aeration principle,
treating wastewater by a biological process called aerobic
digestion. In this process, microscopic organisms use oxygen
to "digest" wastewater and transform it into clear
odorless liquid.
JET
THREE-STAGE TREATMENT PROCESS
Pre-Treatment
In a JET Plant, large objects in the wastewater
are caught by pre-treatment devices such as bar screens,
trash traps, or comminutors (wastewater grinders) and broken
down before being allowed to pass into the aeration chamber.
Untreatable material like plastic or metal is kept out completely.
Aeration
After pre-treatment, the wastewater flows into an aeration
tank where it is mixed with air. Air Diffusers at the bottom
of the aeration tank bubble in large amounts of air for
two purposes - to meet the oxygen demand of the aerobic
digestion process and to mix the aeration tank, the pre-treated
wastewater is held for 24 hours while being transformed
into a clear odorless liquid.
Settling
From the aeration tank the treated liquid flows into a settling
tank that holds the liquid completely still. Here any small
particles in suspension settle to the bottom and are returned
to the aeration tank for further treatment. This settling
process in the final tank of a JET Plant leaves a clear,
highly treated water at the top. Only this highly treated
liquid (called "effluent") leaves the plant and
returns to the environment.

Jet Distributor to install, start up and service his product,
to pass on his training to the operator.
Tank
produced by local, licensed distributors...saves large transportation
costs.
Labor-saving
easily adjusted effluent weir...accessible from the plant
top for easy leveling.

duty galvanized steel bar grating completely covering plant,
hinged and padlocked in position...strong and safe for plant
operators to walk on when inspecting the plant.
JET
SPRAY Foam Control Nozzles, designed to greatly reduce nozzle
clogging, spray an exact fan pattern over aeration chamber
surface.
Service
and maintenance instructions include Operator's Manual,
wiring diagrams, service instructions on components. Material
thoroughly explains plant operation and procedures.
Broad
range of sizes available to fit all facilities.
Optimum
Design. All equipment in a JET Plant is carefully engineered
especially for that plant...to assure the owner of minimum
maintenance, long life, efficient performance, and low operating
costs. Compact and neat, each JET Package Plant has exactly
the "muscle" and reserve capacity it needs to
do the job.
The
"optimum design" means extra life, extra features,
and extra capacities at no extra cost. In fact JET Plants
often cost less to buy. Jet's optimum design means tanks
and components can be installed quickly and easily - for
lower installation costs. Optimum design also means properly
sized and adjusted components that operate at lower cost
for continued savings year after year.
Quality
Control. Jet's close attention to detail also extends to
care in production. Like factory-testing of mechanical equipment
- Jet actually runs every equipment package to check it
out. Care in important small things, too. Like thoughtfully
supplying one master key to open all locks in the plant...time-saving
for the plant operator, money-saving for the owner. Jet
ships an Operator's Manual with each plant...and puts permanent
name plates on the outside of every plant giving Jet's name
plus the name of the location of the local Jet Distributor.
