Sol Tec is a research project aiming at the development of a solar technology for the removal of effluent organic matter from urban wastewaters.

The project is coded AEIFORIA/ASTI/0308/01/BIE and is now at its last implementation phase.

The main objectives of Sol Tec are to:

Promote a scientifically verified technology i.e Solar Photocatalysis (SPC) for the depletion of xenobiotics contained in the EOM from urban wastewater intended for reuse
Establish an updated background in regards to the standing policy and legislation concerning wastewater treatment and reuse schemes, to the state-of-the-art technical developments in SPC, and to achievable removal levels for the selected model substances with alternative treatments
Determine the engineering/technological parameters needed for the scale up of the SPC process
Design, construct and operate the SPC-membrane integrated pilot plant
Assess and optimize the operation of the pilot plant
Demonstrate that the coupling of SPC and biological treatment is a feasible and cost effective solution for the UWTP and reuse schemes and for the removal of the remaining effluent organic matter EOM that contains endocrine disrupting compounds, pharmaceuticals and other recalcitrant xenobiotic compounds
Decrease the final disinfectant demand, and therefore reduce the formation of disinfection byproducts during chlorination.

Euromarket’s role is the design, fabrication and commissioning of the pilot treatment plant something which we have successfully accomplished.
