Wastewater Treatment Solutions Highlighted at WEFTEC

World Water Works, Inc., a specialist designer and manufacturer of wastewater treatment solutions, will highlight their DEMON®, MBBR and DAF  systems at WEFTEC 2013, October 7^th - 9^th, in booth #736, at McCormick Place South in Chicago, Illinois.  Company representatives will be on hand to discuss its wastewater treatment systems as well as recent installations.

DEMON® is an innovative approach to nitrogen removal that has proven efficient, reliable, and extremely cost effective. It offers numerous benefits over traditional nitrification-denitrification systems, including: a 90% reduction in sludge handling volume, a 100% reduction in chemical demand, and a 60% lower energy requirement. The DEMON® system runs a two-step, single stage process that leverages two types of bacteria in order to first oxidise the ammonia in wastewater to nitrite and then convert a combination of this nitrite and remaining ammonia into harmless nitrogen gas.

World Water Works’ MBBR (Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor) systems also leverage biological processes to remove the waste from wastewater. The MBBR tank contains free-floating plastic media on which a thin “biofilm” of treatment bacteria grows. This set-up maximises the surface area for treatment to offer unsurpassed performance. In addition to being lower cost than comparable MBR (Membrane Bio Reactor) systems, World Water Works’ MBBR reactors do not require a large amount of space and are very low maintenance.

The www/RESOURCE DAF (Dissolved Air Flotation), like the DEMON® and MBBR systems, emphasizes high performance and high efficiency. World Water Works’ DAG™ (Dissolved Air Generator) technology produces 5-12 micron “microbubbles” that allow the removal of even the smallest wastewater pollutants while consuming notably less energy than other pump systems. Facilities upgraded with DAG™ typically report reductions in energy costs of more than 50%. In addition, www/RESOURCE DAF systems are built with heavy duty, corrosion free materials that allow the systems to handle a wide range of flows and greatly increase longevity.
