Ecosim™: what is it?
Ecosim combines two well proven processes from Veolia Water Technology portfolio: the PMT Ecodisk and the Anoxkaldnes MBBR, in order to ensure the optimal treatment of Carbon & Nitrogen related pollution.
With a simple and reliable approach, Ecosim offers high performance at low operating and maintenance costs.
Principle
Ecosim™ is a biological wastewater treatment system that automatically adapts itself to frequent hydraulic and organic loading variations.
Its operating principle is inspired by a moving bed biofilm reactor (MBBR) : bacteria naturally grow on the surface of the rotating media to form a "bioturf".
When the drum emerges, the bacteria consumes oxygen, and when it is submerged, bacteria consumes dissolved organic matter.
The crucial difference between a conventional MBBR process and Ecosim™ is the aeration source.
Conventional MBBR systems need air blowers to supply the adequate O₂ into the system. Therefore systems’ electrical consumption is generally high.
By using the rotation of the drum for the aeration, Ecosim™ offers a much more energy-efficient solution.
Some possible implementation examples :
While keeping the benefits of an Ecodisk, Ecosim offers even a more sustainable approach thanks to the :
- Advanced treatment performance
- Reduced CO₂ emissions
- Minimized footprint
- Limited transportation costs
- Optimized electricity consumption
Solar Option
Coupled with solar panels, Ecosim becomes Ecosim Solar, an even more sustainable approach, to accompany our customers on the path for the Ecological Transformation.
