Objective
A biological process for simultaneous removal of carbon, nitrogen and phosphorous from waste waters in a single continuous flow reactor has been recently proven to be successful for treating domestic waste waters (EUREKA EU 1697 "HFO"). Implementation of aeration cycles allows the coexistence of nitrifiers, denitrifiers and phosphorous accumulating microorganisms in the same reactor so that the entire process of C, N and P biotransformation can occur in a single continuous flow compartment. The goal of the project is to implement aeration cycles in biological processes for treating waste waters highly loaded with nutrients (N and P) such as leachates from landfills and composting sites, effluents from farms, food industry and agriculture associated activities. The technology will yield significant cuts on construction and operation costs in comparison to conventional nutrient removal processes and therefore the challenge of its development needs to be faced. The application of the technology for treating highly loaded effluents needs of a feasibility study, and also of investors willing to participate in a Co onerative Research Action Proposals that will follow this
