WHY A NEW PRODUCT TO TREAT
Wastewater
W t t
AMMONIA?
Cleargreen™ Nitrogen treatment requires high
operating costs
• Nitrogen removal needs 2 successives biological reactions
(nitrification and denitrification) requiring high levels of :
1-Energy consumption for aeration
2-External carbon (ex. : méthanol)
( )
• The growing market for anaerobic sludge digestion and biogaz
reuse leads to :
A 15% to 35 % (in case of co-digestion) increase in nitrogen load to
be treated on the water treatment line.This treatmnt increase energy
and external carbon consumption and could also increase volumes.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE (1/2)
( )
Cleargreen™ • A biological treatment which is based on the Anammox
bacteria ti
b t i action i a SBR
in SBR.
• A reactor equipped with captors, continually monitoring the
system to limit human intervention.
• An implemented biological reaction of deammonification.

Cleargreen™ specifically treats the concentrated flow of nitrates: it
does not return to the head of the water treatment line.
Field of application for urban WWTP:
– Retun flow from digested (Digelis &Digelis Turbo) sludge dewatering,
– Centralized sludge treatment plants

ADVANTAGES OF Cleargreen™
g
Cleargreen™ • A patented, innovative, award-winning process
award winning
• Ease of operation:
– Spontaneous installation (without seeding) of the specific
biomass due to the control of the process’ conditions
– Automatic control of cycles and regulation
– Simple interface for an optimized management of aeration
– Low-maintenance
• Performance:
– Robust adaptability to variations in load and effluent
composition
• Sustainable Development:
– No reactive agents needed
– Preservation of energy resources
• Savings:
– Automatic regulation of air supply
(= control of consumption)
