Anaerobic

Wastewater treatment is a critical challenge for many industries and communities, especially where traditional aerobic treatment methods are not viable or efficient.

EP’s anaerobic systems offer an effective solution for the degradation of organic matter in effluents, producing biogas as a valuable by-product.

What is an anaerobic system?

Anaerobic systems use microorganisms that break down organic matter in the absence of oxygen. This biological process results in the production of biogas (mainly methane and carbon dioxide), which can be captured and used as a renewable energy source.

High efficiency

Capable of treating effluents with a high organic load, significantly reducing the amount of organic matter present.

Biogas production

Generation of biogas, which can be used as a renewable energy source, contributing to energy sustainability.

Waste reduction

Converting organic waste into useful by-products such as biofertilizers.

Low greenhouse gas emissions

Anaerobic processes produce fewer greenhouse gases than traditional aerobic systems.

Applications

Industries: Anaerobic systems are widely used in food, beverage, pulp and paper, and organic waste treatment industries to treat effluents with a high organic load.
Wastewater treatment plants: Used in WWTPs to improve the efficiency of sewage treatment, especially in areas where biogas production can be integrated as a renewable energy source.
Agro-industries: Suitable for treating agricultural and livestock waste, converting organic waste into biogas and biofertilizers, promoting sustainability in the agricultural sector.
