Voisins-le-Bretonneux, 21 July, 2020, 6 PM
Orège announces the sale of the first
SLGF unitto
Scottish Water.
Scottish Water has purchased a fixed SLG
and Flosep solution to help reduce carbon emissions and sludge
transportation costs
Following a successful demonstration and hire
period at Kirriemuir wastewater treatment plant, during which
Scottish Water was able to observe the beneficial effect of SLG®
and Flosep (“SLGF”) conditioning for thickening a variety of sludge
types, Orège is pleased to announce that Scottish Water has
purchased a first skid mounted SLGF for conditioning and thickening
liquid sludge for delivery during Summer 2020.
Scottish Water provides drinking water and
wastewater treatment services to 2.46 million households and
150,000 business customers in Scotland.
Scottish Water identified a number of sites to
reduce the volume of liquid sludge being transported by road
thereby reducing carbon emissions in line with their net zero
emissions target by 2040, five years ahead of the UK national
targets
Joanne Kay, Process Scientist for Scottish
Water, commented “Our work at Kirriemuir clearly demonstrated the
potential of SLGF to Scottish Water: allowing us to reduce tanker
volumes by up to 70% is very compelling for any operation and is
especially appealing to Scottish Water as we strive for sustainable
reduction in our operational carbon footprint.”
“There are a number of cases where by
using SLGF to condition sludge to improve the performance of
existing assets, Scottish Water can significantly reduce operating
costs and avoid investment in new assets and we look forward to
exploring ways in which Scottish Water can bring these benefits to
our customers as our relationship with Orège develops” said
Joanne.
“This first order from Scottish Water represents
another important step in the adoption of the SLGF technology for
thickening by the major UK water companies following on from
Anglian Water’s and Wessex Water’s purchases of mobile SLGF
units“said Pascal Gendrot, CEO of Orège.
