World Water Works To Bring Groundbreaking Technology To Global Market

AVN improves Total Nitrogen (TN) removal through management of alkalinity, carbon and energy

World Water Works, Inc., a leading designer and manufacturer of wastewater treatment solutions, announces that it has been selected by the District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority (DC Water) and the Hampton Roads Sanitation District (HRSD) to bring their patent-pending AVN technology to the global market. The technology, which is named for the balance it achieves in Ammonia Oxidizing Bacteria (AOB) vs. Nitrite Oxidizing Bacteria (NOB), utilizes a proprietary control strategy, applying selective pressure to aid in the segregation of the desired bacterial populations. This allows wastewater treatment systems to achieve more efficient removal of Total Nitrogen.

AVN will deliver a rapid return on investment to customers by managing the influent carbon, minimizing the alkalinity demands and reducing the energy requirement of the system while at the same time maintaining superior effluent quality. AVN is literally the ACE (Alkalinity, Carbon, Energy) solution for cost effectively removing ammonia in the mainstream treatment activated sludge process.

“We are extremely excited to partner with DC Water and HRSD and their team of elite scientists and engineers to deliver this game-changing technology to the market,” said World Water Works CEO Mark Fosshage. World Water Works was selected through a public bidding process due to their track record of success in bringing new technologies to market, extensive ammonia removal experience, complementary technologies, and their strong reputation for customer satisfaction.

World Water Works was also recently selected to provide its cutting-edge DEMON wastewater deammonification system to DC Water’s Blue Plains Advanced Wastewater Treatment Plant. As a global leader in wastewater management technology, World Water Works has delivered hundreds of wastewater treatment plants. The company has an award winning manufacturing facility in Oklahoma City and has also recently replicated that facility in India to provide cost-effective technology worldwide.
