Japan MNE SENTRY Wastewater Quality Data to Optimize Treatment for Industrial Wastewater Clients in Japan.

FY 2023-24 · 2023-12-01

Summary
The SENTRY team have worked over 2 years completing bench-scale technology validation and real-world testing. This work has culminated in the Kurita team being interested in the commercialization of SENTRY specifically for monitoring and optimization of an Anaerobic Digestion membrane bioreactor. This includes toxicity detection, monitoring and correlation to changes in key process parameters (such as Volatile Fatty Acids and biogas quality) for improved and more resilient biogas production.

Description
The SENTRY team have worked over 2 years completing bench-scale technology validation and real-world testing.

This includes toxicity detection, monitoring and correlation to changes in key process parameters (such as Volatile Fatty Acids and biogas quality) for improved and more resilient biogas production.
Description (French)
L’équipe SENTRY a travaillé pendant plus de deux ans à la validation de la technologie à l’échelle du banc d’essai et à des tests en conditions réelles. Ce travail a abouti à l’intérêt de l’équipe Kurita pour la commercialisation de SENTRY, en particulier pour la surveillance et l’optimisation d’un bioréacteur à membrane de digestion anaérobie. Cela comprend la détection de la toxicité, la surveillance et la corrélation avec les changements dans les paramètres clés du processus (tels que les acides gras volatils et la qualité du biogaz) pour une production de biogaz améliorée et plus résistante.
