Challenges
The consumption of energy is one of the highest operational costs for Severn Trent and the main
cause of greenhouse gas emissions for the company.
Solution
MABR system can potentially reduce up to 75% energy consumption compared to conventional activated sludge using bubble-based aeration.
Energy reduction

Introduction
Wessex Water’s Optimisation and Innovation Team have embraced the most recent advances in wastewater aeration with their deployment of a bubble-less aeration solution called MABR (Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor).
Traditional methods of treating wastewater are costly in terms of operational expenditure (OPEX) for all water companies and Wessex Water is no exception. Firstly, significant energy is required to simply aerate and mix the bulk liqu
Challenge for Modern WWTP
In many countries the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) infrastructure is ageing and therefore often struggles to maintain the consistent treatment rate and has no capacity to receive and deal with constantly increasing wastewater treatment demand, tightening consents and rapidly rising pressure to achieve compliance.
The global population growth in combination with diminishing land availability excludes large footprint retrofit upgrades
Challenges for Severn Trent
The consumption of energy is of major concern for Severn Trent Water (STW), PLC, UK. One example is that as part of their customer commitment STW1, plan to make their processes more efficient so that they use less energy and at the same time reduce carbon footprint by 7%. To do this the company wanted a solution that would benefit their 4.2 million customers, their business, and the wider environment, a suitable technology that decreases energ
How Spikes in Tourism Impact Utilities Like WasteWater Managment
In recent years there has been a significant increase in protests against tourists in Europe.
A wave of angry anti-British tourist sentiment has peaked across Europe with Spaniards taking to the streets in violent protests as many resorted to anti-tourism slogans and graffiti throughout its tourist hubs.
Challenges for RedMed Group, Algeria
The client, RedMed Group has several remote mining camps, that require wastewater treatment to meet waste stream discharge limits. Taking into consideration these mining camps setting, several issues needed to be addressed, to deliver a fully functional treatment system:
- Decentralized and/or off grid locations require easy to ship and deploy, modular system with energy efficient processes to significantly reduce ener
