Result description
During the 2-year pilot trail the VFCW/OCG was tested with the effluent from different wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) in order to evaluate the feasibility of the here presented approach under different operational conditions. The system was operating very well, independent from WWTP effluent characteristics.
The system combination reduced TSS by 92 %, COD by 80 %, and NH4 by over 99 % and the chlorine demand by 85 %. The log-unit reduction of the VFCW/OCG system reached ≥ 5.1 for total coliforms and ≥ 4.6 for E.Coli. The elevated chloride concentration of the treated WW (819±132 mg/L) proved to be sufficient for the production of chlorine stock solution.
