Abstract
Identification of specific elements of a process stream and the ability
to purchase elements either as a package or individually offers end-users
flexibility and encourages understanding of the processes by those who
have to use them. Incorporation of EM (Effective Micro-organism) based,
low-energy, low-technology elements has allowed clients in sensitive areas
to tailor a ﾒodular process streamﾓ which best suits their site and which
allows meeting of the highest standards for effluent treatment and re-use.
Incorporation of microbial balancing by regular inoculation enables the
systems to cope with the serious problems of fluctuating loads and odour
generation. A simplified process stream approach allows minimal maintenance
on remote sites and multiple failsafe mechanisms including advanced oxidation
to allow the process to produce high levels of effluent quality in extreme
circumstances.
