Acqua-e Group Information

We’re a Spanish Engineering Company specialist in urban and industrial wastewater treatments with our groundbreaking VRT® 4.0 technology: an eco-sustainable wastewater treatment solution, with very high economic, environmental and social benefits & returns. We design, build, commission and operate our tailor-made VRT® 4.0 Wastewater Treatment Plants worldwide. The technology: VRT® 4.0 technology is a continuous aerobic biological wastewater treatment, suitable for any kind of biodegradable effluent, even those with very high BOD and COD contents. With over 200 VRT® WWTPs in 6 countries since 1993, our state-of-the-art VRT® 4.0 combines principles & benefits of time-tested technologies with special CFD modelling and simulation tools, guaranteeing > 98% pollutants+nutrients removal efficiency (N & P incl.) plus 100% chemical-free process. We offer our DsM2 model: an innovative “on-site” low-cost high-profit wastewater treatment solution, which maximizes wastewater value while minimizes worhtless by-products. VRT® 4.0 technology’s benefits (compared with CAS technologies): CAPEX savings, up to 75%: • Up to 90% less surface area required, • Reuse of existing wastewater treatment infrastructures. • Up to 70% less time required for building and commissioning of VRT® WWTPs OPEX savings, up to 50%: • Up to 65% less electricity consumption. • Up to 95% less final biosolids production (sludge). • Up to 70% less staff and maintenance expenses. Environmental and social benefits: • Irrelevant landscape impact (underground layout, 100% odours and nuisance free). • Maximizes treated wastewaters reuse and recycle, with UF & RO. • Minimizes related water and wastewater costs (discharge fees). • Up to 95% less Greenhouse Gases emissions. • Minimizes penalty fines and sanctions due to failure to comply with Environmental Laws and Regulations. • Tax benefits (Green/R&D investment), to be applied at client’s best scenario. • EU, Nationtal, Regional and Local subsidies availability.
