HYBACS wastewater treatment plant installed in Spain
Water World
The project is supported by grant funding of nearly €90000 to Aqualia Infraestructuras an engineering subsidiary from the Spanish Environment Ministry (Ministerio de Medio Ambiente Medio Rural y Marino; MARM). The plant installation is part of Bluewater Bio’s exclusive agreement signed last year with Aqualia to promote the HYBACS technology. The pilot plant now commissioning at a municipal site in Ávila approximately 100 km north-west of Madrid is expected to serve as a reference for the subsequent implementation of this system in other Aqualia facilities. The HYBACS (Hybrid Bacillus Activated Sludge) technology uses the naturally occurring bacteria bacillus to remove nitrogen phosphorus and organic matter from a wide variety of wastewater streams to produce a very high-quality odorless water resource that can be reused in many applications such as agriculture and industry. Daniel Ishag CE of Bluewater Bio comments: "The Spanish wastewater treatment market has immense potential for expansion and represents a key market for Bluewater Bio. Aqualia is one of the world’s largest wastewater companies and we are delighted to have achieved this latest milestone for HYBACS as Aqualia’s first unit is installed in the Ávila plant.

Solar Thermal Power May Make Sun-Powered Grid a Reality
San Francisco Chronicle
The 280-Mw Solana plant being built by Spanish company Abengoa Solar will use a parabolic trough design but will incorporate a thermal storage tank that can keep the plant running for 6 hours with no sun. “We could design a plant that runs 24 hours a day” says Fred Morse an adviser for Abengoa who was formerly the Department of Energy’s solar czar “but that would make no economic sense. ” Instead the plant is designed to cover Arizona’s peak energy-use periods when power is most expensive. A Matter of Scale The enormous scale of the Abengoa and Stirling Energy plants provides an answer to skeptics who doubt whether a few rooftop panels here and there can ever play a meaningful role in the world’s energy portfolio. But size also creates its own set of problems. For one thing the power has to be transmitted to where it’s needed and the empty deserts best suited for sprawling CST plants tend to be in the middle of nowhere.
