Some industrial applications have ponds and reservoirs similar to municipal ponds. Please see other sections of this website as well, including municipal wastewater, water reuse, lakes, and stormwater. Links are listed to more detailed information on the Medora Corporation Website.

Industrial water reservoirs of all types have been improved by our GridBee electric and SolarBee solar-powered long-distance mixers. 

Tax benefits: A key advantage industrial users have in using solar-powered SolarBee equipment is that about 50% of the project is paid for by tax savings, including a 30% investment tax credit and accelerated depreciation. In most cases this reduces the solar-powered SolarBee equipment to about the same cost as GridBee electric equipment.

Wide range of projects: Our company understands reservoirs, and helps solve a wide variety of problems. Below is a partial list of industries and applications where GridBee and SolarBee long distance circulators and mixers are used in various ponds and reservoirs.

Industries include:

•Power plants, coal fired and nuclear

•Refineries

•Chemical manufacturing plants

•Paper plants

•Food manufacturing plants; juice, vegetables, wine, beer, milk, cheese, beef, and other plants

• Rendering plants

•Solid waste leachate ponds

•Superfund clean up lakes

•Mining ponds

Applications include:

•Reduce aeration energy needed in activated sludge main reactor basins

•Reduce aeration energy needed in large intensely aerated ponds

•Suspend solids better and reduce energy usage in complete mix ponds

•Odor cap a series of waste storage sludge ponds

•De-gas sulfides continuously to eliminate odor in large deep ponds at turnover

•Replace aeration and generators in storm water ponds

•Eliminate algae problems in stormwater and reuse water  

•Improve ammonia reduction in lagoon systems

•Prevent arsenic problems in anoxic sediment of various lakes

•Distribute flocculation chemicals evenly in large reservoirs to settle heavy metals

•Distribute peroxide evenly for odor cap of intensely odorous anaerobic ponds

•Increase evaporation in large cooling ponds

•Increase evaporation in large ponds with organic film on top

• Increase evaporation in salt production pond
