Kendal WwTW to get UU's first full scale Nereda technology

摘要

United Utilities (UU) has agreed a contract for its first full scale application of the innovative Nereda technology at Kendal WwTW, following an intensive review of the technology applicability in the UK market. UU said it will be the largest of its kind in the UK. Nereda offers a number of advantages over conventional activated sludge due to the nature of the granules. Contrary to conventional processes, bacteria are concentrated into a compact granular structure with excellent settling characteristics.
