The main task of Izhevsk WWTP is the sanitary and environmental well-being of the city. The complex of engineering structures ensures timely collection of wastewater from the population and industrial enterprises, transportation and treatment of these wastewater before discharge into the Izh River.
In July 2015, Izhvodokanal addressed GSP-Project to get recommendations on energy efficiency improvement.The analysis of the existing situation showed that the biological treatment technology used at the Izhevsk WWTP doesn't allow ensuring the quality of wastewater treatment within the current standard.
GSP-Project Ltd experts developed recommendations to uprgading biological treatment process to the nitridenitrification process.
In addition, options were developed to increase the efficiency of wastewater treatment and improve the energy efficiency of the Izhevsk WWTP, which will maximize the use of existing equipment and minimize the cost of implementing new technologies for biological wastewater treatment. The uprgading to a new technology will improve the energy efficiency of the Izhevsk WWTP. The economic result from the implementation of nitridenitrification process will be about 5 million rub / year with a payback period of about 6 years for new air supply equipment.
