MOWOM - Development of a new mobile waste water treatment process for sme olive mills
Start date of the project:
01/11/2002
End date of the project:
31/10/2004
Funding program:
FP5
Contract Code:
EVK1-CT-2002-30018
The proposed MOWOM system units will allow small olive mills to treat their stored OMW by mechanical/chemical means reaching an elimination of 95% of its organic matter content, whit simultaneous removal of toxic phenols and polyphenolic compounds, and at an affordable cost. This will contribute to a better air and groundwater quality. From the economical point of view, the MOWOM system will lead to reduction of wastewater treatment costs at least by 30 % in comparison to state of the art anaerobic treatment plants when new regulations come into force, and will create employment for its construction, operation and maintenance.
