Aerator Systems

Our engineered turbine aerators enhance oxygen transfer, improve water quality, and support consistent system performance.

Turbine Aerator Designed for Frac Flowback

State-of-the-art Technology

FracCure uses a state-of-the-art turbine that combines the physics principles of precession and centrifugal force. It has one of the highest oxygen transfer efficiencies of any aerator on the market, regardless of type. Competing self-aspirating aerators, which do not use a turbine, are said to experience motor bearing failure in as little as six months. They also tend to create a current so strong that there is concern that it will unduly scour the pit liner.

FracCure Turbine Aerator is Designed for Frac Pits

Oil & Gas Fracking

Other aerators can sandblast the pit liner, which could cause very costly repairs and cleanup. FracCure aerator creates a gentle 360-degree horizontal thrust and incorporates safety low-water legs, allowing the aerator to rest on the liner without damage.

Turbine Aeration Unit Designed for Harsh Environment Frac Water Flowback

Pontoons

Pontoons are made of a nearly 1/4-inch-thick polyethylene shell, resistant to oil and chemicals, and UV protected against sunlight degradation. They are then foam-filled with closed-cell foam, guaranteed not to sink, even with bullet holes.

Motor

Our industrial-grade hazardous-duty motors are modified for the frac water environment.

They are then coated with two-part epoxy marine paint.

Drive Shaft

The drive shafts/air shafts are made of stainless steel with a 1/4-inch wall thickness, designed to last a lifetime of use in frac water.

Turbine

Our turbines are made from a fiberglass resin that is nearly as hard as a diamond.

Designed to never wear out.

How It's Made

The Manufacturing Process.

The video shows the manufacturing process to build the best aeration system on the market today.

The Turbine

The design of the turbine is a result of years of studies within fluid dynamics, in particular centrifugal force, and “precession” as applied to rotating fluids.
