SFC Umwelttechnik addresses this issue with its innovative C-ION™ technology, even in existing plants, helping to reduce operating costs.
In biological wastewater treatment plants, seasonal fluctuations or other external influences can lead to the formation of filamentous bacteria, which produce bulking sludge. This sludge does not settle properly in the secondary clarification, leading to deteriorated effluent quality and reduced plant throughput. A common countermeasure is the use of flocculants to improve sludge settling. However, these are expensive and result in additional salt input into the water.
Solution: Bulking Sludge Control with SFC Technology
SFC Umwelttechnik offers an effective solution for bulking sludge control in wastewater treatment plants with its C-ION™ technology. This process suppresses the formation of bulking sludge in the activated sludge bioreactor without the use of additional chemicals. This leads to lower operating costs and rapid amortization. The technology is easy to implement and ensures stable operating conditions, significantly improving the efficiency of the treatment plant.
In which areas are our technologies used?
Our solutions for bulking sludge control are ideal for existing municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants struggling with the challenges of bulking sludge. By using C-ION™ technology, these plants can reduce their operating costs and increase their performance.
