STS and Yorkshire Water have been working on monitoring siloxanes at two of their waste water treatment sites. Yorkshire Water wanted to gain a better understanding of the level of siloxane contamination in the biogas derived from Sewage AD and how the contaminant may vary over time. STS installed their Pre-Packaged monitoring kiosk for 2, 6 week trials with data being collected through a web portal.
The results of the data will be used to aid Yorkshire in determining the best mitigation strategy and in understanding the impact of siloxane contamination on maintenance costs and regimes.
