Researcher: Monitoring and performance evaluation of an aquaculture pilot-plant fed on tertiary treated wastewater, Research project in collaboration with CAP Evolution, Alfa Varese and Istituto Spallanzani via EURAXESS

Politecnico di Milano

Milan, Italy 🇮🇹

Offer Description

The project aims to verify the feasibility of breeding bleaks for repopulation purposes using treated urban wastewater, collected downstream of the tertiary disinfection treatment. For this purpose, 2 pilot-plants will be operated, located at the wastewater treatment plants of Sant’Antonino (Lonate Pozzolo, Varese, perated by Alfa Varese) and Canegrate (operated by CAP Evolution), respectively. Each pilot-plant consists of 2 parallel lines, fed on treated water and well-water, respectively. The pilot plants will be operated according to the indications of Istituto Spallanzani and monitored by POLIMI. The data collected will be used to evaluate the productivity in terms of fish-biomass and the release of contaminants in the outgoing water, which will be recycled to wastewater treatment plant, so to evaluate the additional specific pollution loads.
