NVP Energy has developed a unique technology that cleans wastewater WW to a very high standard whilst recovering valuable high quality biogas that is 100 percent available for reuse. NVPEs solution has global reach, where their innovative energy positive ‘Low temperature Anaerobic Digestion Lt ADtechnology works at temperatures less than 20 degrees C unique for Anaerobic Digestion. NVPEs solution turns wastewater treatment WWT from being an operational cost into a new revenue stream for prospective customers in Food Drink Industries brewing, malting, distilling, bottling, dairy, meat processing, offering average paybacks of 3 years. Lt AD offers a triple effect of substantially reducing trade effluent charges by more than 60 percent, removing sludge creating biogas that is 100 percent available for reuse to generate heat and or electricity on site. WWT occurs at ambient temperatures, so uniquely no heat input is required for the microbes to work effectively. The low treatment temperatures do not affect the efficiency of the technology, allowing the Lt AD to work at Hydraulic retention times below 12 hours. NVPEs innovation enables customers to treat their the large volumes of low strength WW on site, the technology removes chemical oxygen demand COD total suspended solids TSS concentrations in their WW, allowing customers to significantly reduce their current trade effluent charges. Unlike other WWT technologies, negligible sludge is produced, so sludge treatment disposal costs are minimal. A by-product of the Lt AD process is biogas as the energy generated from the biogas is greater than the energy required to operate the system, it is carbon neutral energy positive. Biogas generated more than 80 percent CH4 content with very low H2S content, which is exceptional for AD can be 10 percent utilised on site for heat and or electricity production through Boiler or CHP systems, which will become an ongoing revenue stream for customers. NVPE will develop a strong business case for the use of Lt AD in a brewing malting application, a key target market due to the low strength WW characteristics and large volumes of WW generated on site. For this business case NVPE will choose the most suitable end-user to deploy a full scale demonstrator on one of their 'live' operational sites. NVPE has engaged with prospective customers and feedback has been that a consistently operating reference site in their industry is the next step before they would consider proceeding with a full scale commercial deployment. During Phase 1 NVPE will select a final first adopter customer and chosen site based on a number of criteria. Phase 2 NVPE will design, install, commission, operate a full scale demonstrator system, treating 500m3 per day, on a brewing malting site to fully validate the technology in this target market at full scale. The ultimate outcome will substantiate NVPEs short payback value proposition calculations already achieved at lab and pilot scale by demontrating consistent operational data for WW pollutant removal biogas quality volumes at scale. This flagship reference site will allow prospective customers to see first-hand the technology treating their specific WW stream providing a platform for NVPE to generate real jobs, revenue & growth. There are more than 106 UK plants where our technology is applicable with the average sized plant requiring 4 x NVPE modules minimum. The payback is 2.5 years with RHI and without RHI the payback is less than 3.2 years, offering a compelling proposition for this target market.

NVP Energy开发了一种独特的技术，可以将废水净化到非常高的标准，同时回收100%可重复使用的宝贵的高质量沼气。NVPE的解决方案具有全球影响力，他们的创新能源积极'低温厌氧消化Lt AD技术在温度低于20摄氏度的厌氧消化独特的工作。NVPE的解决方案将废水处理从运营成本转变为新的收入来源，为食品饮料行业的潜在客户提供酿造，麦芽制造，蒸馏，装瓶，乳制品，肉类加工，平均投资回收期为3年。Lt AD提供了三重效果，即大幅减少60%以上的污水处理费，去除污泥，产生100%可重复使用的沼气，以在现场产生热量和/或电力。WWT在环境温度下进行，因此微生物有效工作不需要热量输入。低处理温度不会影响该技术的效率，使Lt AD能够在水力停留时间低于12小时的情况下工作。NVPE的创新使客户能够在现场处理大量的低浓度WW，该技术可以去除WW中的化学需氧量COD总悬浮固体TSS浓度，使客户能够大幅降低其当前的贸易污水收费。与其他污水处理技术不同，产生的污泥可以忽略不计，因此污泥处理处置成本最低。Lt AD工艺的副产品是沼气，因为沼气产生的能量大于系统运行所需的能量，因此它是碳中和能源。沼气产生的CH 4含量超过80%，H2S含量非常低，这对于AD来说是非常特殊的，可以通过锅炉或CHP系统在现场利用10%的热量和/或电力生产，这将成为客户的持续收入来源。NVPE将为在酿造麦芽应用中使用Lt AD开发强有力的商业案例，由于低强度WW特性和现场产生的大量WW，这是一个关键的目标市场。对于这个商业案例，NVPE将选择最合适的最终用户在他们的一个“现场”操作站点上部署一个全尺寸演示器。NVPE已经与潜在客户进行了接触，反馈意见是，在他们考虑进行全面商业部署之前，下一步是在他们的行业中建立一个持续运营的参考站点。在第1阶段，NVPE将根据一系列标准选择最终的第一个采用者客户和选定的研究中心。第二阶段NVPE将设计、安装、调试和运行一个全尺寸的示范系统，每天在酿造麦芽生产现场处理500立方米，以全面验证该技术在该目标市场的全面性。最终结果将证实NVPE的短期投资回报价值主张计算已经在实验室和中试规模实现，通过展示WW污染物去除沼气质量体积的一致操作数据。这个旗舰参考网站将允许潜在客户看到第一手的技术治疗他们的特定WW流提供一个平台，为NVPE产生真实的就业机会，收入和增长。我们的技术适用于超过106家英国工厂，平均规模的工厂至少需要4个NVPE模块。使用RHI的投资回报期为2.5年，而不使用RHI的投资回报期不到3.2年，这为该目标市场提供了一个令人信服的建议。
