BioGRAN: Implementation of the aerobic granular sludge technology for industrial wastewater treatment.

The service platform BioGRAN is situated in the domain of environmental biotechnology, i.e. the biological treatment of industrial wastewater. BioGRAN aims at assisting companies, that treat their own wastewater, in the implementation of the revolutionary aerobic granular sludge technology, leading to significant economic and sustainability advantages. In a first phase, BioGRAN determines the feasibility of granulation with the specific wastewater from a client company. The translation of the key granulation parameters to practical implementation subsequently happens in collaboration with an external partner, the water consultant Cre@Aqua. In this phase, BioGRAN is involved in monitoring of the biological treatment plant during, and after, the implementation of the granular sludge technology.
