Desah containerised wastewater treatment plant
A compact, containerised biological wastewater treatment plant
Looking for a future-proof solution for local wastewater treatment? Desah's compact A-B system (Adsorption/Bio-oxidation) offers a smart, robust and fully automated way to treat wastewater, without a sewage connection and with low operational costs.
This solution is ideally suited for treating wastewater for new housing developments, holiday parks, hospitals, resorts, remote locations or as temporary, extra capacity for a wastewater treatment works.
Features
The compact Desah A-B system is a biological activated sludge system in which wastewater is treated in two steps. Aeration and sedimentation are used in both steps.
In the first step (A phase), organic matter is decomposed via adsorption and in the second step (B phase) via bio-oxidation. Between these steps is an oxygen-free (anaerobic) phase where nitrogen and phosphate are removed. The result is a treated effluent that can be discharged or reused.
Its container design makes it a scalable and mobile solution that can be quickly started up without major civil work (plug & play). This solution is ideally suited to locations where wastewater needs to be treated locally as no sewer connection is possible.
Advantages
- Energy-efficient and chemical-free purification
- Compact design: takes up little space and requires minimal civil works
- Robust and reliable: simple and stable process, even under changing loads
- Modular system: easy to scale up and add treatment steps
- Fully automated and remote controlled
- Low total cost of ownership (TCO)
