THE RIGHT BLEND AT TULLAMORE, IRELAND
Landia GasMix' externally-mounted digester mixing system is proving to be an integral part of EPS Water’s successful Design Build Operate (DBO) package at the recently expanded WWTW in Tullamore, home of the celebrated Irish whiskey, Tullamore Dew.
EPS Water’s process for the WWTW, which caters for a population equivalent (PE) of 45,000 and a sludge treatment capacity of 80,000 PE, includes two sludge digesters with duty/stand-by CHP, sludge holding tanks, sludge drier and all associated works.
A leader in infrastructure support services, including design and build for the water sector, EPS Water introduced Landia GasMix for its reliability, gas yield enhancement and easy maintenance, as EPS Regional Operation Manager Gerald Buckley explains:
"For our client, Irish Water, Landia GasMix not only produces more methane than other systems, but it does so much quicker because it mixes the whole tank properly, leaving no crust on the surface".
He added: "We have found the GasMix unit to be extremely reliable. Easy access to the pumps ensures staff carry out routine maintenance efficiently and safely, thereby avoiding downtime. At EPS we deliver mission-critical products for the very best, long-term technical solutions – and Landia GasMix meets that requirement as a system we know can rely upon for its efficiency and performance".
