22 Jan 2009: Resource Recovery – Not Wastewater Treatment at the Geological Society, London

T: 01924 257891 F: 01924 257455 E: sarahhickinson@aquaenviro.co.uk W: http://www.aqua–enviro.net/calendar.asp

The basic principles of wastewater treatment have remained unchanged for at least one hundred years. Our sewerage network uses water as a vehicle for transporting solids in soluble or particulate form, from their site of production to a wastewater treatment facility. At the treatment works the process is reversed and the solids removed from the flow stream. Physical separation is used to remove particulate material, whereas biological treatment is used to convert soluble organic compounds and phosphorus into particulate biomass which can then be separated by physical settlement. The treated effluent is suitable for discharge to watercourse and the solids receive further treatment before final disposal. This system has served us well in protecting health and the aquatic environment, but in today’s carbon conscious, water hungry and, energy and resource scarce world, is it now found wanting and should each stage of the process have a serious rethink if it is to serve another hundred years?
