Objective

The project aims to address the formation of foams in wastewater treatment plants (EDARs) to improve water treatment efficiency and reduce economic costs.

The formation of foams in the decanters and biological reactors of Wastewater Treatment Plants (EDARs) can lead to a decrease in water treatment efficiency and an increase in the economic costs necessary to address this process. To tackle this issue, the SurVue project proposes various actions:

Captura desde 2024-06-13 12-00-08
  1. Study of Causes and Variables
    Conducting a study on the causes, processes, and variables involved in foam formation in urban EDARs, including current measures to mitigate it.
  2. Detection and Monitoring System
    Development of a system that will include both physical elements installed at the EDAR itself (image capture and treatment systems) and a system of algorithms for interpreting the generated visual information.
  3. Automatic Control of Foam Proliferation
    Implementation of an adaptable automatic control system based on the needs of each EDAR. This system can be operated remotely through a web platform that will integrate all information related to the key variables associated with foam formation.

Benefits

The solution developed in SurVue will be a tool available to urban EDAR operators to reduce economic costs and optimize the wastewater treatment process.
