Active contact between the feed and the existing biomass is maintained whilst preventing internal stratification and temperature gradients. The mixing action also minimises the formation of a scum layer and the settlement of sludge solids.

Organics is equipped to supply individual components within a complete system or all of the components required to make up a complete system.

The objectives of a project designed to recover energy from processing waste and wastewater are:

  • The installation of an anaerobic digester which will generate and capture waste gases and so reduce the emission of greenhouse gases
  • Reduction of odours and harnessing energy in the form of methane
  • Generation of renewable electricity to offset the use of fossil-fuels
  • Improvement the efficiency and reduce the carbon footprint of wastewater treatment.
