The sub-project on MRF and composting facility improvement will include (1) composting facilities, rapid composting (bioreactor and windrows composting), and (2) MRF.

Wastewater Treatment Facility (WWTF)

 

The treatment facility that will be used for the new slaughterhouse is the Decentralized Wastewater Treatment System (DEWATS). DEWATS applications are based on the principle of low-maintenance since most important parts of the system work without technical energy inputs and cannot be switched off intentionally. DEWATS applications are based on four basic technical treatment modules which include the following:

  • Primary treatment: sedimentation and floatation

  • Secondary anaerobic treatment in fixed-bed reactors : baffled upstream reactors or anaerobic filters

  • Tertiary aerobic treatment in sub-surface flow filters

  • Tertiary aerobic treatment in polishing ponds
