Municipal wastewater treatment is the procedure of removing contaminants, basically from the household and commercial wastewater. Wastewater has to undergo the chemical, physical and biological procedure to remove these contaminants and give out an environmentally safe treated effluent. The sewage treatment process is carried out in special treatment facilities, the Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTP). Their scale along the method of treatment vary, depending upon the number of people served (population equivalent).
Sewage is an important consideration for every part of the world because wastewater, if not managed properly, can be hazardous to the environment and pose a danger to people. In large urban areas, in general, a central sewerage system is set by municipalities and treatment is processed in large, appropriately designed and equipped facilities. However, municipal wastewater management is also required in remoted areas not serviced by the public central sewer system or into industrial facilities which are obliged to primary treat their wastewater before discharging it into the sewer.
The efficient operation of WWTP ensure a properly treated effluent, meeting the requirements of the institutional framework and, of the even increasingly stricter Community Directives on environmental protection. Furthermore, an efficient and well-designed wastewater treatment system significantly implies lower maintenance costs and required investments, while guaranteeing highest protection of both human health and the ecosystem, especially in sensitive areas such as coasts or water sources adjacent to the treatment plant.
Europe Environment offers operation and maintenance services, providing a vast know-how and experience required for the efficient operation of your municipal wastewater treatment plant, addressing your specific wastewater treatment needs, alleviating customer’s concern about constant monitoring requirements of the unit, and helping industries to focus on their core activities.
Offered for any kind of treatment facilities, our services include:
- Operation and maintenance of Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTP or STP).
- Maintenance of pumping stations.
- Maintenance of sewage networks.
- Optimization of WWTP operation.
- Sampling and special measurements.
- Design and construction of wastewater treatment plants
- Supply and installation of special equipment
- Chemical-technical and environmental studies
- Physical-chemical parameters analyses of the wastewater produced by the treatment (BOD5, COD, SS, FOG, etc.).
- Installation of remote control systems (SCADA), with transmission of information and commands in real-time for fully automated and continuous control of the unit
- Full report of the test results and unit performance, including assessment of the operation and suggestions for improvement, modernization and upgrading of the unit.
Monitoring and control of the facilities are performed by qualified technical staff continuously on a 24-hour-a-day basis; in case of malfunction or fail, immediate action is taken to ensure the smooth operation of the processing unit and of the main industrial activity.
We offer to optimize the results of your current facilities, and if necessary, to replace equipment parts and/or upgrade the unit. The service is provided to urban or industrial wastewater treatment plants, regardless their source, and at any treatment stage (primary, secondary and tertiary treatment, residue removal etc.).
