Cost effective

Nereda® technology enables wastewater treatment against very attractive whole-life costs (WLC) or total expenditure (TOTEX). Typically, not only are the operation and maintenance costs (OPEX) significantly lower than for conventional technology, but also the construction costs (CAPEX).

Nereda enables extensive treatment in compact and uncomplicated designs. The amount of mechanical equipment is much less than in conventional processes. For example, separate clarifiers, return sludge pumping stations or moving decanters are not necessary. This lowers the direct plant costs (CAPEX) for greenfield, brownfield, retrofit or capacity extension applications and often enables that existing treatment sites can be utilized rather than purchasing new land. Operation & Maintenance costs (OPEX) are much lower thanks to the reduction in mechanical equipment, chemical-free operation and the remarkably high energy efficiency of the process.

• Less mechanical equipment
• No separate clarifiers
• Lower capital expenditures
• Lower operation & maintenance costs
• Lower whole live cost plant costs
• No or minimal chemicals and waste disposal costs
