Conclusions <strong>Ozonation</strong><br />
Full scale reactor in Regensdorf proves ozonation to be an efficient<br />
technique for the elimination of micropollutants <strong>and</strong> disinfection<br />
0.6-0.8 g Ozone/g DOC is sufficient to significantly reduce (80-100%)<br />
the selected micropollutants<br />
<strong>Ozonation</strong> reduces both specific <strong>and</strong> non-specific in vitro ecotoxicity<br />
S<strong>and</strong>filtration seems appropriate as an <strong>addition</strong>al barrier for the elimination<br />
of products formed during ozonation e.g. NDMA but especially AOC<br />
Bromate formation is not of concern in wastewater with such low<br />
bromide concentrations<br />
E.coli is reduced significantly <strong>and</strong> bathing water quality reached with 0.6<br />
g O3 /g DOC , 0.9 g O3 /g DOC reaches the requested CT-value of 10 min⋅mg O3 /l<br />
HRT should be 15-20 minutes during dry weather to prevent ozone loss<br />
during stormwater (HRT about 5 minutes)<br />
Short circuiting in the ozonation chamber should be avoided<br />
Energy consumption for 1 kg ozone incl. pure oxygen production <strong>and</strong><br />
transport to WWTP is about 15-17 kWh<br />
For 0.8 gO 3 /gDOC <strong>and</strong> 5-10 gDOC m -3 wastewater electrical energy<br />
consumption 16 is 0.06 - 0.13 kWh m -3 (20-40% of nutrient removal WWTP

Primary energy consumption of <strong>PAC</strong> (no regeneration) 3.5 kg carbon needed for 1 kg<strong>PAC</strong>:<br />

Conclusions for <strong>PAC</strong> <strong>addition</strong><br />
Sorption efficiency of <strong>PAC</strong> reduced with increasing DOC<br />
Adequate treatment of sec. effluent requires 10 - 20 g<strong>PAC</strong>/m 3 depending<br />
on DOC background concentration (5 – 10 gDOC/m 3 )<br />
<strong>PAC</strong> dosage <strong>results</strong> in an increase of sludge production of<br />
approximately 5-10% (10-20 g<strong>PAC</strong>/m 3 )<br />
Due to the low sorption kinetics <strong>PAC</strong> sludge age in the sludge treatment<br />
system should be above 1 day, this requires a system with <strong>PAC</strong><br />
retention (e.g. filter, sedimentation or membrane)<br />
<strong>PAC</strong> recycling into the biology clearly increases elimination<br />
efficiency due to counter flow (conc. step <strong>and</strong> DOC pre-sorption)<br />
The embryo test with rainbow trouts shows a considerable<br />
developmental retardation after ozonation but not after filtration<br />
(formation of by-products that are again degraded in filtration?)<br />
Primary energy consumption is higher for <strong>PAC</strong> than ozon, but electrical<br />
energy for ozonation increases consumption of WWTP about 20-40%<br />
Investment <strong>and</strong> operation costs incl. filtration amount to 0.05-0.2 € m -3<br />
for ozonation <strong>and</strong> 0.1-0.3 € m -3 for <strong>PAC</strong> (5-30€/p/y for 100m 3 /p/y)
