Scope of supply
UTB designed, built and commissioned the industrial wastewater treatment plant at the Glencore Group's multi-seed crush plant in Foktő (Pannon Növényolajgyártó, now Viterra), across both phases. The effluent is high in fats and organic matter. Physico-chemical pre-treatment with dissolved air flotation feeds HYBRATOR™ (MBBR) biological basins, with a buffer tank ahead of them and sludge storage, a dewatering centrifuge and a disinfection basin behind. Phase 1 (2013) treated 460 m³/day and 16,967 PE; the plant was later extended to take the effluent from the newly built refinery.
- 556 m³/day
- 29,893 PE
- HYBRATOR biological basins behind DAF and buffering
- Delivered across Phase I and Phase II
- Completed 2023.
- Phase 1: 460 m³/day, 16,967 PE, completed 2013
- Later extended for the new refinery effluent
