Case Study: Arvia Technology Limited
Posted on
ARVIA TECHNOLOGY LIMITED
Arvia supplies advanced tertiary wastewater treatment systems to remove recalcitrant organics (COD), colour, and persistent organic micro-pollutants such as emerging contaminants, endocrine disruptors and carcinogenic compounds. The aim is to ensure that water quality from wastewater is compliant with local wastewater discharge regulations or perfect for water reuse.
PROJECT
Arvia has developed an award winning, patented technology to remove and destroy organic pollutants in wastewater. This project tested the efficacy of this novel treatment system in removing a range of organic micro-pollutants from waste-water. New analytical methods were developed to understand possible degradation pathways and the underlying mechanism of destruction. The project allows this new solution to water pollution to be independently proven and then offered to the market.
LISA KRIEGER
Lisa is interested in research on the removal of organic micro-pollutants during waste water treatment, with the aim of achieving water sustainability. Prior to this project, Lisa obtained her BA (Hons) in Medicinal Chemistry. She also worked on a year long analytical environmental toxicology research project, resulting in a publication in Chemosphere.
