Wastewater treatment - disposing of difficult to treat animal waste

One challenge of running a facility for animals is the need to dispose of a significant quantity of difficult to treat waste. Animal waste comes under more stringent waste regulations than domestic waste. WPL has provided sewage treatment for many animal facilities not connected to mains drainage.

TESTIMONIALS

Peter Joyce Head of Sludge Treatment

"This was a successful project, undertaken to meet regulatory standards for ammonia removal at Cliff Quay Water Recycling Centre WPL’s Hybrid-SAF units play an important part in many of our sites maintaining compliance."

Louise Nethercott Proprietor of Home Farm Holiday Centre

“We are very happy with the WPL system. It performs well, is simple to maintain and has passed all the environmental tests and checks. The nature of our business means we do have big fluctuations in visitor numbers, even more so this year because of Covid-19, and it has continued to provide reliable treatment, with no odour issues. We would certainly continue to recommend WPL technology to other businesses.”

Adrian Riggs Contract Manager, MJ Abbott

Diamond always meets the schedule for our installation teams. What installers are saying about our 3 to 6 days lead-time for WPL Diamond range.

Jaroslav Varga Mayor of Klimkovice

“The area’s fishing ponds are used for fish farming as well as leisure, so it was important to protect them. Installation of the project was executed without any problems and WPL worked with us very proactively. We’re happy they will assist us in the first few months of operation.”

Richard Morris Project Manager, Scottish Water

“This is an important scheme which will deliver enhanced ammonia removal at our Ferniegair treatment works. WPL is a framework supplier whose technology will have a key role in the site maintaining compliance.”

Nick Cowan, Group Environmental Manger Group Environmental Manger

Our discharged effluent is cleaner than it has ever been, maintenance on the process is very straightforward and we have reduced our overall costs of operation.

Andrew Gulliford Process design engineer

"Wessex Water customers will benefit from the 75% cost saving on this project and the energy efficiencies achieved will help deliver our sustainability target."

John Marsh Metropolitan Water Director

Finding a cost effective solution for the treatment of wastewater has led Metropolitan to install the on-site WPL Hybrid-SAF™ plant – which meets the entire needs of the Castle Hill development and will be delivered on time and to budget.”

Richard Smith Process Engineer at Marlow Foods said

We are pleased to be working with Atana to install permanent dewatering technology to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions on our mission to become a net zero business.

Paul Currie Managing Director of The Lakes Distillery

Our distillery is building a reputation as one of the greenest in the world, so it was important for every part of our renovation and building work to be carried out to the highest possible environmental standards.

Peter Murray CBE executive and founding director of YSP

“The new centre is a reflection of our ambition to increase long-term resilience and sustainability by building audiences, further developing our artistic programme, and increasing visitor income."

Martin Lyons Mitchells & Butlers’s area building manager

The idea of repurposing of WPL’s HiPAF wastewater treatment plant was inspired and is exactly the kind of sustainability initiative we expect from our supply chain partners.

Stuart Evans Sill Project Director

The Sill will be much more than a visitor attraction – it will enable us to reconnect with our landscapes and our heritage. It is important that we seek the highest environmental standards in all our construction and operational activity to minimise disruption to the natural beauty of the area.

Uzair Osman Contracts Manager

The client, United Utilities, chose the ST1000 modules manufactured by WPL because they wanted units that could be moved from site to site after the Huyton project was completed.

John Tidy Project Manager

Neil Wilkinson Project manager

The modular nature of WPL’s Hybrid-SAFs gives the wastewater treatment plant managers at Sandbach and Lawton Gate flexibility in terms of operation along with the additional capacity required.

John Tidy Project Manager

To ensure swift installation it was important that on-site mechanical and electrical work was kept to a minimum. WPL’s bespoke design service and factory-build meant that on-site installation of the HiPAF® midi only took two days.
