Discussion

Situation

ClearFox® offers the perfect wastewater treatment solution for hospitals with its wide range of systems. For this reason, a business partner from Iran requested an SBR wastewater treatment solution for a hospital in the northwest of the country. The wastewater comes from three sources: Firstly, the hospital produces sanitary wastewater, which is generated in the showers and toilets. Furthermore, cleaning water is produced, which is used to wash the floors and clean the working materials. In addition, the hospital regularly washes the patients’ hospital clothes. In total, a daily wastewater volume of about 1000 PE is generated.

Problem

The challenge in this project was the components of the wastewater. Due to the various sources, cleaning agents, coarse contaminants, germs, bacteria, and drug residues mix into the wastewater. These can severely pollute the environment if they enter the groundwater untreated. In addition, the wastewater accumulates irregularly. While the wastewater flow increases during the day, it decreases again at night.

Solution

For this project, the customer built an underground concrete tank in which the wastewater treatment takes place with the ClearFox® SBR system. The project planners on site regularly communicated with ClearFox® engineers to meet all requirements. These included the footprint of the tank, the total volume, supports for pipes and openings for pipe access. With the ClearFox® team’s years of experience, building the concrete tank was not a challenge.

The ClearFox® team supplied the complete SBR equipment for the installation on site for this project. For this, the Bayreuth-based company trained the customer online. After the successful installation, the wastewater can flow into the SBR reactor, which compensates for the fluctuating inflows. A high-performance aeration system supplies the microorganisms with sufficient oxygen. This allows them to develop and treat the contaminants in the wastewater. With its SBR solutions, ClearFox® offers reliable, cost-effective, high-performance, and energy-saving systems for all areas of application.

FAQ

Yes, ClearFox® SBR systems are highly customizable and can be tailored to projects of any size and requirement. Our engineers will analyze the specific needs of your wastewater and develop a customized solution that is optimally suited to your application.

ClearFox® SBR systems are specifically designed to compensate for uneven inflows. An upstream buffer area in the reactor collects the wastewater and compensates for day-night fluctuations to ensure continuous treatment.

Our team will help you plan the concrete tank, including determining the footprint, total volume, supports for pipes and pipe openings. A detailed exchange with our engineers will ensure that the tank meets all requirements.

The duration of the installation depends on the project size and site conditions. A typical system such as the one described in the project can be installed and commissioned in a few days to weeks, provided the concrete tank is already prepared.

Yes, the system is extremely flexible and can be used in various industries, including hospitality, food processing, municipalities, schools and more. It is particularly suitable for wastewater with high organic loads and irregular inflows.
