Advanced Cyclic Activated Sludge Technology

WINEP is now fully integrated into Water Company business plans and the process changes needed to meet tightening discharge consents, especially related to P removal, are being implemented already in AMP7 capital delivery programmes.

For many smaller works, enhancing phosphorus removal involves an increase in chemical dosing to precipitate phosphate in the sludge. This appears, at first sight, to be a low cost option because the capital costs of chemical storage, dosing plant, and tertiary filtration equipment are usually lower than those of alternative processes.

But these installations also create a long-term operational cost legacy together with the issues associated with the handling and storage of chemicals and disposal of chemical sludges, particularly on unmanned, rural, or remote sites. Te-Tech Process Solutions, working with their strategic partner SFC Umwelttechnik, are offering advanced cyclic activated sludge technology, te-cyc™, as a more cost-effective long-term sustainable solution to satisfy tightening discharge consents and growth drivers through a range of bespoke and off-site manufactured package treatment solutions.
