Size
Pilot scale trial
Location
Tarago, VIC
Goal
To assess feasibility for full scale sludge drying and treatment using Reedbed Technology
Obstacles
Varying solids and algae content
Solution
Wastewater sludge treatment reedcells
Key Project Features
Our wastewater sludge treatment reedcells for this site employed a novel drainage and loading system. Our reebed systems provide a sustainable solution for sludge drying and treatment which ensures low operating expenditure, low maintenance, and substantial operational and disposal cost savings.
Key Project Outcomes
- Low maintenance sludge treatment system
- High loading rates and high % solids achieved – resulting in reduced operational and disposal costs
- Moving towards implementation of a full scale system
