Wastewater Phosphorus Removal Technologies
Get ready for AMP7 with our phosphorus removal technologies
The water industry’s next five-year Asset Management Period, AMP7, comes into force in 2020. This will include tighter regulation around the removal of phosphorous from wastewater due to the nutrient’s damaging effects on the ecosystem.
But how can your wastewater treatment site meet these tougher targets in an economical and reliable way?
Our exclusive phosphorous removal technologies are the answer. Trusted by thousands of wastewater treatment sites worldwide, our cost-effective range of products can help you comply with tighter consents and meet your obligations under AMP7.
What’s more, our products are easily upgradeable and adaptable – so your system will be future-proofed against changing legal and industry requirements.
Actiflo®
Our patented Actiflo® clarifier range has been removing phosphorous from wastewater for over 20 years. Its sand-ballasted clarification process can quickly treat high and variable flow rates and achieve phosphorous reductions exceeding 95%.
Not only that, but Actiflo®’s compact footprint is up to 25 times smaller than conventional clarification systems. All in all, it’s the ideal technology for wastewater sites with limited space and the strictest phosphorous removal consents.
Hydrotech DiscFilter
With over 15 years of operational experience in the UK, our world-leading Hydrotech Discfilter is used globally for wastewater polishing. It’s an easy-to-operate, flexible and offsite-fabricated solution with a proven low TOTEX (total expenditure) – making it a particularly good fit for small to medium tertiary phosphorous removal applications.
Plus its compact design provides 3 times the effective filter area as drum filters with a similar footprint, so it’s a great option for space-limited sites that need high filtration rates.
Struvia™
Struvia™ is the perfect solution for wastewater sites seeking to make an income from their phosphorous removal technology. By adding magnesium salts to wastewater, it extracts phosphorous in the form of struvite crystals which can be reused as agricultural fertiliser.
As phosphorous reserves are diminishing, the resale value of recycled phosphorous results in a competitive return on investment – especially for high volume wastewater treatment sites. And the compact Struvia™ can reduce site downtime and maintenance costs too, as fewer pipes will get clogged by uncontrolled struvite production.
