Pilot 5: Bure Misie, Poland

The pilot facility is a wastewater treatment plant located in the Bure Misie Settlement, in Nowy Klincz, near Kościerzyna, in the Pomeranian Voivodship, Poland. According to data from 2017, Pomorskie Voivodeship is the second most attractive province in Poland in terms of tourism.

Pilot focus:

Expansion, filtration, disinfection, irrigation, monitoring for treated wastewater.

Location:

Nowy Klincz, Poland

Site:

Bure Misie Settlement

Applied solution:

Nanobubble oxygenation, hydrophyte biofilter, wastewater effluent irrigation, biomass valorisation and remote WWTP management.

Treatment capacity:

15 m³/day

Utilisation:

Treatment of domestic wastewater and pre-treated food-processing effluents

Responsible:

Bure Misie Community Foundation

About the pilot:

The wastewater treatment plant at Bure Misie Settlement in Nowy Klincz, Poland, serves nearly 50 permanent residents and experiences a strong seasonal increase in visitors. During peak periods, increased wastewater loads resulted in insufficient oxygen levels and reduced treatment performance.

A key element of the project was testing a Micro-Nano Bubble Generator, producing oxygen nanobubbles smaller than 100 nm. The system was introduced to improve oxygenation in the aeration chamber and compared with conventional aeration during the peak tourist season. Nanobubble aeration increased dissolved oxygen concentration by an average of 35%, demonstrating high oxygen-transfer efficiency. However, additional mixing is required to ensure adequate sludge circulation.

Additional activities explored hydrophyte biofilter treatment, wastewater effluent irrigation, biomass valorisation and remote WWTP management, addressing different aspects of wastewater treatment, resource recovery and system operation.
