Effective Sewage Defoamer: Improving Wastewater Treatment Efficiency & Foam Control
← Back to all Wastewater Applications
Foam is a common, disruptive issue in biological sewage treatment plants, impacting nearly every stage from activated-sludge aeration basins to effluent discharge. Uncontrolled sewage foam lowers oxygen-transfer efficiency, creates safety hazards, and compromises effluent quality.
An effective foam control strategy — primarily specialized biological sewage defoamers — is crucial. INVINO, a leading defoamer manufacturer from China, offers solutions tailored to municipal and industrial biological sewage plants.
Advantages of INVINO's Sewage Defoamer Solutions
INVINO's sewage defoamers deliver significant, measurable benefits:

Q&A: Biological Sewage Foam Control
Q: How does foam lower oxygen transfer in aeration basins?
A: A foam blanket traps air and blocks gas exchange, reducing oxygen transfer to the activated sludge and lowering treatment performance. A defoamer removes the blanket to restore oxygen transfer.
Q: Is INVINO-5023 safe for the activated sludge microorganisms?
A: Yes. At recommended low dosage it controls foam without harming the activated-sludge biomass.
Q: Does the defoamer work across a broad pH range?
A: Yes. It is stable and effective across the broad pH and temperature range typical of municipal and industrial biological sewage.
Q: Is a silicone-free option available for sensitive systems?
A: Yes. INVINO offers silicone-free antifoams alongside the silicone-emulsion INVINO-5023; our team matches the right grade to your process.
Q: How is the sewage defoamer dosed?
A: Continuous low-rate dosing keeps basins foam-free, or shock-dose to knock down sudden foam. Confirm the optimum rate by trial for your foam load and volume.
