Aeration components arriving at Christchurch Wastewater Treatment Plant

Aeration components from around the world are arriving at the Christchurch Wastewater Treatment Plant, as we start implementing our medium-term plan to minimise odours from the fire-damaged plant.

Six aerators are being flown in from the United States and two more have been sourced from around the country, while the motors are coming from Brazil and specialised submersible electrical cabling from Australia.

Odour-minimising measures continue at plant

Christchurch City Council staff are continuing measures to try and reduce any offensive odours from the fire-damaged Christchurch wastewater treatment plant.
The on-site team continues to add polymer dosing to the primary sedimentation tanks to reduce the organic loading on the oxidation ponds.
