Summary
Clean TeQ’s BIOCLENS® technology was installed at a solar panel producing plant in the Czech Republic in 2012. The plant operated under anoxic conditions to remove organic pollutants (ethanol, iso-propanol and other biodegradable chemicals) from industrial wastewater. The plant had a flow rate of 70m3/h and a reactor volume of 70m3. Treatment reduced the BOD concentration from 25mg/L to a level below 4mg/L.
