• Municipal Wastewater Treatment
• Special effluents like land fill leachate and sludge
processing unit
Bio Film Technology
• Biodegradation of pollutants occurs
via teamwork of microorganisms
united
in sludge flocs
• Important result of research :
• Some important, non-flocculating
organisms will be washed out from
bioreactor, resulting reduced plant
efficiency
• Solution: Biofilm technology
• via immobilisation, cell growth on
• solid surfaces, “carriers“ made of
• plastics, sand, glass, etc.
• Target: Synthesis of biocarrier
Our REQUESTS on OPTIMAL CARRIER
• PROPERTY EFFECT
• 1. Adsorbing capacity - binding toxic pollutants
- fast colonization + bio film
- fast start up at high level
• 2. Porosity, high inner surface - protection of the biofilm
• (high biomass content) - high space-time-yields
• 3. Fast wetting - homogenous fluidisation
• 4. Water binding - mass transport, bioactivity
• 5. Proper fluidisation - lower energy consumption
Our Technology
• LEVAPOR Bio Carrier
• First synthesized Bio Carrier
• Porous, Flexible, Durable PU foam
impregnated with surface active pigments like
activated carbon
• Due to variability of foam and pigment type
and their ratios, tailor made carriers can be
produced with varying properties
Our Technology
Properties
High Adsorbing Surface
• 10 to 12 kg of activated
carbon per m3 of foam
matrix
• PU foam surface area 2500
m2/m3
• 1000-2000 m2/g surface
area of activated carbon
• Extremely high adsorbing
surface
Benefits:
• Reversible Adsorption
• Rapid microbial colonization
and biofilm formation
• Temporary adsorption of
toxic and inhibitory
substances
• Subsequent biodegradation
and thus regeneration of
surface
Advantages
• Treatment of effluents containing toxic substances
• Short process start up and higher performance compared to
suspended mass based systems (100 to 300%)
• Higher process stability against toxic shock loads and
fluctuations in reactor conditions
• Lower Degree of Filling (12 to 15%)
• Smaller foot print
• Lower energy consumption for fluidization
• Lower sludge production
• Simpler process control
Applications
• Up gradation/expansion of existing plants
• Anaerobic-Aerobic treatment of high strength , slowly
bio degradable pollutants
• Nitrification- de nitrification of effluents containing high
ammonia concentrations
• Biological Treatment of Polluted air/gas (BTF)
• Biofilm reactor MBBR/IFAS for the treatment of
industrial and municipal wastewater
• Treatment of hyper saline effluents containing solvents
• Treatment of land fill leachate and groundwater
containing PAHs.
Agro Chemicals, Middle East
• Pesticides Manufacturing Agrochemicals industries
• A Wide variety of agro chemicals manufactured at site due
to hectic crop cycle
• Effluents Containing :
• Biologically active biocides and often inhibiting raw
chemicals , active ingredients and their by products
• Solvents like methanol, aromates, dicholoromethane,
methyl-isobutyl-ketone(MIBK) from the formulations
• Higher Salinity
A typical Effluent Characteristics
• Up to 12,000 mg/lit COD comprising solvents in it
• Up to 600 mg/lit inhibitory , active ingredients and their by
products
• 500 to 800 mg/lit Total Kjehldahl Nitrogen (TKN) containing
mostly Organic-N associated with slowly hydrolysable s-
triazine.
• Up to 1500 mg/lit Sulfates (SO4-)
• 10,000 to 25,000 mg/lit Salt Concentration as NaCl
The Problem
• Adversely affect the environment
• Presence of high amount of biodegradable solvents make wet
oxidation processes costly and thus biological degradation
would be cost effective alternative
• Higher concentrations of inhibitory substances lower the COD
removal efficiency of suspended growth only reactors
• COD removal also affected due to high fluctuations of load
• Severe nitrification inhibition due to fluctuating COD removal
efficiency
• Aerobic only treatment increases aeration costs and also
handling of high amount of toxic sludge
The solution
• MicroAerobic-Anaerobic-Aerobic
• Provides most diverse microbial consortia responsible for
the biodegradation of complex molecular structures.
• During Anaerobic Step the complex molecules are
hydrolysed
• Much of the COD removed , thus reduce aeration demand
• Lower sludge production and thus solids handling costs.
• Presence of inhibitory substances, pH changes, salinity
fluctuations cause deflocculation and wash out of microbes
• Thus, immobilization of microbes on carriers
Pilot Testing
• Proposed Micro Aerobic-Anaerobic-Aerobic
Scheme with denitrification
• Tested for two years at site
•

Levapor carriers agro_chemicals

  • 1. LEVAPOR – porous, adsorbing carrier for bioprocess improvement Dr. Imre Pascik LEVAPOR GmbH www. levapor.com Leverkusen, Germany
  • 2. About us • Innovative Organization • Fixed Film Based Process Solutions • Complex Effluent, Municipal Wastewater, Polluted Gas • CEO Dr. Imre Pascik • 40 years of experience with Bayer AG, Environmental Bio Technology Centre, Leverkusen
  • 3. About us • Development of innovative processes • Two Step nitrification of high Ammonia containing effluents • Landfill Leachate Treatment • Bayer Tower Biology (Otto Award) • Degradation of toxic effluents using Anaerobic-Aerobic Processes
  • 4. What We do • Problem analysis for the treatment of high strength industrial and municipal wastewater treatment • Define treatment goals and conceptual process design • Development of optimal process and design parameters with pilot tests • Manufacturing of high performance tailor made bio carriers for the application • Process Start up
  • 5. Industries We serve • Chemicals and Pharmaceuticals • Petrochemicals and Refineries • Pulp and Paper • Coal Conversion : coke plant, coal gasification, pyrolysis • Textile finishing and Leather manufacturers • Municipal Wastewater Treatment • Special effluents like land fill leachate and sludge processing unit
  • 6. Bio Film Technology • Biodegradation of pollutants occurs via teamwork of microorganisms united in sludge flocs • Important result of research : • Some important, non-flocculating organisms will be washed out from bioreactor, resulting reduced plant efficiency • Solution: Biofilm technology • via immobilisation, cell growth on • solid surfaces, “carriers“ made of • plastics, sand, glass, etc. • Target: Synthesis of biocarrier
  • 7. Our REQUESTS on OPTIMAL CARRIER • PROPERTY EFFECT • 1. Adsorbing capacity - binding toxic pollutants - fast colonization + bio film - fast start up at high level • 2. Porosity, high inner surface - protection of the biofilm • (high biomass content) - high space-time-yields • 3. Fast wetting - homogenous fluidisation • 4. Water binding - mass transport, bioactivity • 5. Proper fluidisation - lower energy consumption
  • 8. Our Technology • LEVAPOR Bio Carrier • First synthesized Bio Carrier • Porous, Flexible, Durable PU foam impregnated with surface active pigments like activated carbon • Due to variability of foam and pigment type and their ratios, tailor made carriers can be produced with varying properties
  • 10. Properties High Adsorbing Surface • 10 to 12 kg of activated carbon per m3 of foam matrix • PU foam surface area 2500 m2/m3 • 1000-2000 m2/g surface area of activated carbon • Extremely high adsorbing surface Benefits: • Reversible Adsorption • Rapid microbial colonization and biofilm formation • Temporary adsorption of toxic and inhibitory substances • Subsequent biodegradation and thus regeneration of surface
  • 11. Advantages • Treatment of effluents containing toxic substances • Short process start up and higher performance compared to suspended mass based systems (100 to 300%) • Higher process stability against toxic shock loads and fluctuations in reactor conditions • Lower Degree of Filling (12 to 15%) • Smaller foot print • Lower energy consumption for fluidization • Lower sludge production • Simpler process control
  • 12. Applications • Up gradation/expansion of existing plants • Anaerobic-Aerobic treatment of high strength , slowly bio degradable pollutants • Nitrification- de nitrification of effluents containing high ammonia concentrations • Biological Treatment of Polluted air/gas (BTF) • Biofilm reactor MBBR/IFAS for the treatment of industrial and municipal wastewater • Treatment of hyper saline effluents containing solvents • Treatment of land fill leachate and groundwater containing PAHs.
  • 13. Agro Chemicals, Middle East • Pesticides Manufacturing Agrochemicals industries • A Wide variety of agro chemicals manufactured at site due to hectic crop cycle • Effluents Containing : • Biologically active biocides and often inhibiting raw chemicals , active ingredients and their by products • Solvents like methanol, aromates, dicholoromethane, methyl-isobutyl-ketone(MIBK) from the formulations • Higher Salinity
  • 14. A typical Effluent Characteristics • Up to 12,000 mg/lit COD comprising solvents in it • Up to 600 mg/lit inhibitory , active ingredients and their by products • 500 to 800 mg/lit Total Kjehldahl Nitrogen (TKN) containing mostly Organic-N associated with slowly hydrolysable s- triazine. • Up to 1500 mg/lit Sulfates (SO4-) • 10,000 to 25,000 mg/lit Salt Concentration as NaCl
  • 15. The Problem • Adversely affect the environment • Presence of high amount of biodegradable solvents make wet oxidation processes costly and thus biological degradation would be cost effective alternative • Higher concentrations of inhibitory substances lower the COD removal efficiency of suspended growth only reactors • COD removal also affected due to high fluctuations of load • Severe nitrification inhibition due to fluctuating COD removal efficiency • Aerobic only treatment increases aeration costs and also handling of high amount of toxic sludge
  • 16. The solution • MicroAerobic-Anaerobic-Aerobic • Provides most diverse microbial consortia responsible for the biodegradation of complex molecular structures. • During Anaerobic Step the complex molecules are hydrolysed • Much of the COD removed , thus reduce aeration demand • Lower sludge production and thus solids handling costs. • Presence of inhibitory substances, pH changes, salinity fluctuations cause deflocculation and wash out of microbes • Thus, immobilization of microbes on carriers
  • 17. Pilot Testing • Proposed Micro Aerobic-Anaerobic-Aerobic Scheme with denitrification • Tested for two years at site •
