EGLV case | Preparing for quaternary treatment at WWTP Bottrop | AMOZONE Webinar Snippet

In this excerpt from our recent AMOZONE™ webinar, guest speaker Thorsten Lind, Project Coordinator at EGLV (Germany), shares how EGLV is preparing for quaternary treatment at the Bottrop wastewater treatment plant in Germany. The Bottrop plant is one of Germany’s largest wastewater treatment facilities, with a capacity of 1.3 million population equivalents. As large-scale plants across Europe prepare to meet new micropollutant removal requirements, EGLV is evaluating how ozonation can be implemented while managing bromate formation risk. In this case-focused session, Thorsten explains: Why quaternary treatment is becoming a key priority for large wastewater treatment plants Why EGLV is exploring ozonation as a preferred treatment route How high bromide concentrations create specific design and permitting challenges Why a pilot project was needed before moving toward full-scale implementation How CFD modelling from AM-Team helped improve the initial reactor planning How the pilot design was adapted to support better ozone injection, micropollutant removal, and bromate control This practical case shows how utilities can use advanced modelling to support better planning decisions before committing to major infrastructure investments.
