Kazanlak WWTP - 1999

Design, installation and start-up tests of the aeration system in the biological treatment stage.

The wastewater treatment plant treats a population equivalent of 194 620. The plant was refurbished in 1999 when the old aeration system, with perforated pipes, was replaced by fine bubble diffused air aeration system using the membrane diffusers DM-320. This allowed energy savings in the range of 2.8 million kWh/year to be achieved.

Number of DM-320 diffusers – 5616

Reference for WWTP, Kazanlak town

“...the aeration system of the activated sludge tank, using membrane diffusers DM-320, operates well and meets the plant requirements. Moreover, the quantity of oxygen delivered exceeds the provision in the design.”

Sincerely Yours,
