Aeration
Aeration
Aeration is the core application for most water treatment processes for Rivers, Ponds, Wastewater Treatment to Aquaculture. It keeps water bodies clean by introducing oxygen into the water to promote aerobic biodegradation of any organic pollutants by microbes that flourish in aerated water. A microscale aeration application is seen in a fish tank or backyard pond cleaning device that circulates air within the water.
Aeration is extremely important in larger bodies of water, particularly in wastewater treatment plants, because it helps to reduce the amount of organic matter in the water. It is an environmentally friendly application of wastewater treatment. In recent years, the trend toward finding smart and energy-efficient aeration solutions has gained significant interest in the market. It is important to keep energy consumption low and still produce efficient aeration. Nu-Way Energy offers a range of equipment to help minimise energy consumption and optimise efficient aeration.
Anaerobic Digestion
Anaerobic Digestion
Anaerobic digestion is a process through which bacteria is broken down into organic matter, such as animal manure, wastewater biosolids and food wastes – in the absence of oxygen. These systems are specially designed and constructed in various shapes and sizes specific to the site and feedstock conditions through the reactor, a sealed vessel in which the biogas production takes place. Within these reactors, they contain complex microbial communities that break down and digest the waste, helping to produce secondary biogas, which digests (the solid and liquid material end-products of the AD Process) and is then discharged from the digester.
Baking
Baking
Baking ovens are very common equipment in the food industry. Bakeries are using ovens for cooking bread, cake, cookies etc. In this process, prolonged dry heat is used in the oven, normally in an oven, to transfer heat gradually to the batters and doughs to produce baked items. Therefore, to ensure a quality and hygienic product, the heating of the baking process need to be safe and homogeneous.
Boosting Gas Pressure
Boosting Gas Pressure
Gas Boosters are intended to raise the pressure of gas supplies to give adequate combustion for smaller sizes of pipework, valves and so on. Because of centrifugal fan designs, they give superior performance from a small physical size. They have less space and less energy consumption than identical direct-drive boosters. Also, the noise level for the gas booster is a critical factor for selection.
Chemical Transfer
Chemical Transfer
Transfer of chemical and food ingredients involve lots of special safety consideration. Nu-Way Energy offers a wide range of food and chemical grade pumps and systems for the food, beverage and chemical industries.
CO2 Transfer
CO2 Transfer
The way to a fantastic fill station is the kind of pump that is inside it. The pump will direct fluid CO2 from bigger chambers into little cylinders. This enables you to arrange large chambers specifically from providers and move that gas into numerous littler cylinders. The pump ought to be of a high standard and has been custom-made to work most effectively on cylinders. We would require a total pump bundle that comes finished with high-weight hoses, and ball bolt fittings and the proper associations being utilised on Australian standard CO2 cylinders.
Drying
Drying
In the drying process, water or another solvent is removed from the solid by evaporation technique. This process is one of the most common across industries. Drying is used in the agricultural industry to dry crops before processing, in the food industry to dry powders, and beer hops, salt manufacturing industry to dry salt and so on. In the most common case, a gas stream, e.g., air (applies the heat by convection and carries away the vapour as humidity).
Fuel Distribution
Fuel Distribution
The distribution of petroleum products represents an important stage in the oil industry supply chain. This encompasses two major distribution paths;
-
Shipping of light products such as gasoline and diesel from refiners to distribution terminals
-
Shipping of heavy products to industry customers and lube plants.

NWE has the experience and capability of offering guaranteed industrial noise reduction solutions that can be tailor-made to meet specific application requirements.
Pneumatic Conveying
Pneumatic Conveying
Pneumatic conveying transfers powders, granules, and other dry mass materials through a pipeline. The main force for this transfer originates from a mix of pressure differential and the stream of gas. The most essential components of this system would be a process air source like a fan or blower. A proper selection of the process air source is necessary to ensure quality performance, reduced energy consumption and low maintenance.
Process Fluid Transfer
Process Fluid Transfer
In process industries, fluid transfer systems play a critical role. Pump system design dictates the transfer performance which relies mainly on the fluid characteristics. Pumps come in a variety of sizes for a wide range of applications. They can be classified according to their basic operating principle as dynamic or displacement pumps. Dynamic pumps can be sub-classified as centrifugal and special effect pumps. Displacement pumps can be sub-classified as rotary or reciprocating pumps.
Process Heating

Smelting
Smelting
Smelting is the way to extricate a metal (like tin or copper) from its mineral ore. In the raw state, the metal is found to be compounded with other elements like oxygen or sulphur. In this process, we use heat to decompose the ore then extract the other element using some reducing agent. The reducing agent is normally a source of carbon, like coke.
Tank Heating
Tank Heating
Tank heating is a widespread need in many industries where the process requires hot liquid. This process is most common in food and dairy, winery and brewery, chemical and CIP (cleaning in process) industries. Though there are several ways to heat up the liquid, and efficient system can save a lot of energy and downtime. A wide range of process liquids can be heated accurately and consistently with the small-diameter immersion tube tank heating systems. Highly cost-effective in operation, efficiencies over 80% are readily achieved in both new build and retrofit installations.

Vapour Recovery
Vapour recovery is the way toward recouping the vapours of gasoline or different fuels, with the goal that they don’t escape into the environment. This is frequently done at most of the filling stations to lessen poisonous and possibly hazardous exhaust and contamination.
Vapour recuperation is additionally utilised as a part of the chemical industry to expel and recoup vapours from storage tanks. Sometimes the vapours are valuable to recover, but mostly they are environmentally unsafe. The procedure comprises of a shut venting framework from the storage tank to a vapour recovery unit (VRU) which will either recycle the vapours in the process or destroy them.
In New Zealand, vapour recuperation has become obligatory in major urban territories. There are 2 classifications – VR1 and VR2. VR1 is to be introduced in fuel stations that draw under 500,000 litres every year. VR2 is for fuel amounts of more than 500,000 litres for each annum or as designed by different EPA bodies.
Water Heating
Related Industries
Water Heating
Hot water is common to use in domestic, commercial and industrial applications. From cooking to cleaning, bathing to space heating and numerous industrial processes – hot water has extensive usage. In the water heating system, the heating system is used to heat up the water from its underlying temperature.
A hot water boiler is the most common equipment in this application where a burner is firing any fuel (like natural gas, LPG, diesel oil, heavy oil, etc) into a combustion chamber where water is flowing through some multipath channels to enhance the heat transfer.
Condensing boilers provide energy savings compared with conventional boilers by recovering all or part of the heat lost by water vapour in the flue gas. Condensing boilers help customers reduce their energy use and carbon footprint. They are also easy to maintain.
