After fire damaged the wastewater treatment plant in Étretat, there was no time to lose. Thanks to good cooperation, the plant’s new disinfection solution was up and running just seven days after the fire.
Focusing only on the lowest unit price might not always produce the savings you're after. It also doesn't guarantee improvements in water and sludge treatment processes. That's why interest around alternative procurement approaches grows.
The job of a public procurer is to get the best value possible for taxpayers’ money. More and more that means considering a much wider range of criteria than just price, quality, and quantity. How can municipalities and other buyers of wastewater treatment chemical technologies get the best possible long-term benefits?
Wastewater can be disinfected using a variety of methods. This webinar session discusses new emerging methods with low capital investment and energy needs, combining chemistry expertise with smart technologies.
With the help of smart chemistry, Danish wastewater treatment company BIOFOS was able to successfully tackle issues related to sludge management and struvite head-on.
With water scarcity driving the need to increase wastewater reuse, combined with concerns over the energy consumption and environmental impact of some disinfection methods, many wastewater treatment operators are seeking out new solutions for wastewater disinfection.
When it comes to smart digital solutions, Jesper Berner, Manager of Advanced Water Treatment at Kemira, compliments switched-on plant operators who expect suppliers to propose new solutions to boost cost effectiveness and efficiency.
Municipal and industrial water treatment is poised to enter an era of significant change, with key regulatory updates on the horizon and cost pressures putting an increasingly tight squeeze on aging infrastructure and operating expenses alike. Wido Waelput, Senior Vice President and Jesper Berner, Sr. Manager of Advanced Water Treatment at Kemira share their thoughts on the big issues facing the industry today.
There’s no getting away from it – where there’s water treatment, there’s sludge. The more water you treat, the more sludge there is to deal with. So when Lahti Aqua was looking for a smart way to cut sludge management and disposal costs, they turned to Kemira’s KemConnect SD – and a groundbreaking performance-based agreement that’s making sure it’s a win-win for everyone involved.
Phosphorus is one of the vital building blocks for life. It is essential for example for animal feed and food production. At the same time, in wastewater it is a nuisance that needs to be removed. Pioneering solutions for both phosphorus removal and recycling is important to us, our wastewater treatment plant customers, as well as the society at large.
