With the new IMO Resolution MEPC.159(55) applicable for installations starting from January 1st 2010, new and more stringent limit values will come into force for effluent water from marine sewage treatment plants.
Sewage treatment in accordance with the new MEPC.159(55)
Most of the available sewage treatment plants acc. to MEPC 2(VI) do not fulfil the more stringent requirements.
RWO's family of wastewater treatment systems has been complemented by the
to fulfil the new MEPC.159(55).
Both types, i.e. the WWT-LC as well as the SMT are offering a number of advantages, incl.: |
- excellent effluent results, fulfilling MEPC.159(55)
- most compact design
- process stability
- delivered as plug and play units
- standardised sewage treatment systems available in the most common capacities
In addition to the WWT-LC and SMT, RWO also offers the MEMROD® process (MEMbrane Reactor Operation Device. The MEMROD®process is comparable to the SMT process but foreseen for larger capacities and therefore being a custom-made system.
Since its development a total of 15 MEMROD® plants have been installed on board of research-, navy-, cruise-vessels and mega yachts.
