Bio-P removal
 Bio-P removal will become one of the most important technologies for the water industry going forward
 Opportunity to recover the Phosphorus and to reuse this as a resource – algae is a circular approach to P removal
 Emerging contaminants
 Carbon footprint of P removal technology needs to be reduced

Bio-P removal – the need to move beyond chemicals
• Massive increase in demand for ferric – 500 works AMP 5&6 / 900 in AMP 7
• Current forecast is a 30% shortfall in supply of ferric by the end of AMP7
• Volatile price
• EA consents of Fe typically 3.5 to 4.0mg/l – is this acceptable?
• Low P with low Fe is a real problem may not be achievable below 0.2mg/l
• Ferric sulphate / chloride – condition of existing assets / enhanced levels of training for operators / can alter the pH caustic dosing
• The drive to Net Zero carbon
