Process Verification and Optimisation at Luleburgaz Wastewater Treatment Plant

As one of the beneficiaries of the Instrument for Pre-Accession Assistance (IPA) mechanism for European Union (EU) candidates, the Turkish Ministry of Environment and Urbanisation and the EU IPA department have invested in several environmental-concerns project. The construction of Lüleburgaz wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) is one of such projects. Due to the estimations provided by consultants in the design for the WWTP, a more reliable model based on verified data is required.

With MIKE Powered by DHI WEST for OPTIMISATION software, we were able to provide a dynamic model that was more reliable in simulating the WWTP, based on the design data provided by consultants and real data obtained from Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA).
