Action B.2: The action started as planned in January 2015 and finished on September 2016instead of June 2016 because although the prototype was working well into KERABEN’sfacilities, a better optimisation of the dosage of natural coagulant in the prototype wasdesired. The following activities have successfully been done:

• Preparation and adequacy of the facilities in TEXTILS MORA, S.A.L, KERABEN GRUPO, S.A. and in URBAN WWTP to install the prototypes.

• Transport of the first prototype from SERVYECO to TEXTILS MORA, S.A.L and then from TEXTILS MORA to KERABEN.

• Transport of the second prototype from SERVYECO to URBAN WWTP.• Start up, fine-tuning and optimization of the prototype in each end user; TEXTILS MORA,

KERABEN and URBAN WWTP.• Implementation and validation of the optimum dosage and treatment system, improving

coagulant efficiency, compatibility and versatility in each end user.• Analysis of wastewater treated in prototype in each end user.

Following the milestones B.2. M.4 (Prototype Installation in the ceramics companyfacilities) and B.2 (M.5. Prototype installation in the textile and WWTP facilities) and as a result of this action, two deliverables have been developed:

• Deliverable D.B.2.1: Report: Prototype in a real installation – Textile company facilities and Ceramic company facilities.

• Deliverable D.B.2.2: Report: Prototype in a real installation –Urban Water facilities

TEXTILS MORA: Summarizing the demonstration phase, it could be said that the obtained results with ADNATUR coagulant in TEXTILS MORA facilities are much better than Aluminium polychloride and all of them are under the law:• COD reductions are between 69-77% and COD values always below discharge

limit to urban WWTP in Ontinyent, 1.000 mgO2/L• Total suspended solids (TSS) reductions are between 85%-95% and TSS values

always below discharge limit to urban WWTP in Ontinyent 500 mg/L• Conductivity increases are between 5-0% and CONDUCTIVITY values always

below discharge limit to urban WWTP in Ontinyent, 3.000 mgO2/L• Quantity of Aluminium polychloride is 350 ppm more than ADNATUR coagulant.• Required dosage of coagulant has been reduced at 60% and neutralizing agent

has been completely removed.• ADNATUR coagulant does not modify the CONDUCTIVITY because it does not

need neutralizing agent.

EGEVASA: Obtained contamination results with ADNATUR coagulant in urban WWTP facilities are nearly under the law. They are similar values to those obtained with the ferric chloride; however, the amount of ferric chloride is twice more than the amount needed with ADNATUR coagulant:• Total Phosphorus reductions are between 50-80% obtaining values which are

almost always below the discharge limit, 1 mg/L, average annual value.• N-NH4 reductions are between 70-90%, obtaining values which are almost

always below discharge limit, 5,4 mg/L• ADNATUR coagulant do not interfere in negative way the biological process, as

show COD and TSS values. The benefits of organic coagulant it is seen reflected in the good state and activity of the microorganism.

• ADNATUR coagulant does not modify the CONDUCTIVITY because it does not need neutralizing agent that has been completely removed.

KERABEN: Obtained contamination results with ADNATUR coagulant in KERABEN facilities are also similar than nowadays coagulant (synthetic organic coagulant), however:• TTS reductions are between 95-99% and these values are always below

discharge limit, 500 mg/L.• Turbidity reductions are between 95-99% and these values are always nearly 0,0

NTU• ADNATUR coagulant does not modify the CONDUCTIVITY because it does not

need neutralizing agent that has been completely removed. Conductivity increases: maximum 8,5%.
