ELOVAC® is a compact system for the degassing of liquids such as digested sludge. It significantly improves the ecological footprint of a treatment plant by avoiding uncontrolled methane emissions. In addition, it improves sludge dewatering and so reduces disposal costs.
Leading water engineering solutions company, ELIQUO HYDROK, welcome Peter Wroe as Chief Financial Officer (CFO) as of October 2020; with his remit to further develop the future growth strategy of the company and build upon the reputation for quality and service in partnership with all UK water utility companies.
Hias has awarded ELIQUO TECHNOLOGIES with a new contract to build an ELOVAC®-P for its anaerobic digestion treatment plant in Ottestad, Norway. The ELOVAC®-P will have a treatment capacity of 10 m³ /hour of anaerobically digested sludge and it will be integrated post digestion and prior to dewatering.
ELIQUO started the construction work on the Dodewaard WWTP in December 2019. The new plant will treat the sewage from 70.000 inhabitants in the surrounding area and will generate 1,100,000 kWh of electricity per year. A solar park next to the new plant will provide all of the required electricity to power the new treatment processes. The construction and assembly of the solar park will commence in May of this year making the treatment process 100% self-sufficient and preventing 660 tons of CO2 emissions into the atmosphere annually.
ELIQUO’s number one priority is the well-being and safety of our people, clients, partners and their families, not only during these unprecedented and challenging times, but always. Over the last weeks, the management teams in Germany, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands have implemented measures to protect the health of our employees, customers and suppliers and to do everything we can to slow the spread of the Coronavirus.
ELOVAC®-P allows water companies to prevent diffuse methane emissions and reduce their carbon footprint, while avoiding struvite problems and improving dewatering of digested sludge.
The Waterboard Vallei & Veluwe and ELIQUO recently hosted a symposium with 40 representatives from 5 Dutch Waterboards to discuss lessons learned from building the innovative - energy autonomous and nutrient recovery - WwTP in Amersfoort (NL).
