Activated Sludge Analysis provides the key to give aeration energy savings to Wastewater Treatment Plants

摘要

Characterising the performance of their activated sludge bacteria has led to the optimization of the aeration process of the Cardiff & Afan WwTW, and several other plants throughout the UK. This was achieved using an innovative, cutting edge technology saving Giga Watt hours of energy and assisting Dwr Cymru Welsh Water (DCWW) & Kelda Water Services (Wales) (KWS(W)) in reducing their Carbon footprint.
