Operation and control of the physical and chemical parameters is carried out by a computer system SCADA. The final step of wastewater treatment represents electrochemical oxidation running in four electrolytic cells. Before and after wastewater treatment we monitor in addition to general physical and chemical parameters also the concentration of drug residues – pharmaceuticals. Target pharmaceuticals in our analysis are atorvastatin, bisoprolol, carbamazepine, ciprofloxacin, clofibric acid, diclofenac, fluoxetine, imatinib, metoprolol and sertraline.

The construction is made in two aboveground containers with additional small biological wastewater treatment plant and tertiary system with electrolytic cells as a final treatment step. Several containers and piping system will allow us to test various different combinations of pre-treatment.
