[...]Stay on the safe side! The need for security has strongly increased especially in the recent past. This development can be recognized in nearly all situations of life. The security requirements are however especially high where a great many people could be affected very easily. Drinking water supply is an example for such a case. The facilities in this sensitive environment are often in a very poor condition. To identify potential weak points, the authorities recently simulated burglary attempts on public institutions, among them also drinking water supply structures. This campaign lead to [...]
[...]All-round building protection with tested security We must eliminate the risk of any manipulation of our drinking water and its quality. Access to the free water surface must be prevented and the plants protected against vandalism and theft. The exterior shell of objects should therefore be designed as a mechanical barrier with a long resistance time. Criminal investigation departments recommend, among other measures, the use of security doors certified to resistance class RC3 or RC4 in compliance with DIN EN 1627. For vertical access, it is best to use tested security manholes covers . Certified[...]

[...]Process technology for the treatment and recycling of biowaste Saving disposal costs Treating process water and purifying wastewater Minimising residues Separating disturbing solids (plastic) Reducing operating costs The aim of biological waste treatment is to recover energy from the organic fraction of household waste as well as from organic waste, such as biowaste and food waste. For dry aerobic treatment (composting) and wet anaerobic treatment (fermentation with biogas production), good mechanical pre-treatment of the supplied biowaste is essential for the reliability and performance of the[...]
[...]Denitrification in the sand filter for nitrogen reduction Nitrogen is a basic building block of life and nature and, like phosphorus, is indispensable as a nutrient for all humans, animals and plants. Municipal wastewater contains various nitrogen compounds (including organically bound ammonium and nitrate). The removal of nitrogen is one of the main tasks of municipal biological wastewater treatment, because without sufficient nitrogen removal, the discharge of wastewater into receiving waters has significant negative effects on water quality and thus on flora and fauna. Denitrification Downstream[...]

[...]Bayonne, France The water board of the city of Bayonne supplies the drinking water for one third of the population (15,000 persons) from the valleys of Petchonea, Arquetce, Ipharager and Lapeyeren. In 2011, the Bayonne water association decided to refurbish their well shafts for drinking water supply. The refurbishment was necessary as the old bitumen coated manhole covers were leaking. The water board put the refurbishment of about 100 shafts out to tender. The tender specifications were for manhole covers including entrance ladders and installations. The cheapest offer was submitted by the [...]
