What You Gain

Compliance, Cost Reduction & Capacity — Before the Chemistry

Plant managers and procurement officers don't buy nano-technology. They buy outcomes. Here is what BioTerraVa technologies deliver in operational language:", "Les directeurs d'usine et les agents d'approvisionnement n'achètent pas de nano-technologie. Ils achètent des résultats. Voici ce que les technologies BioTerraVa livrent en langage opérationnel :

📉 Lower Operating Costs

Reduce chemical dosing by 20–40% through demand-triggered release. Cut sludge hauling costs with higher cake solids. Lower energy use with shorter treatment residence times.

✅ Reliable Compliance

Achieve sub-0.1 mg/L phosphorus, <1 mg/L ammonia, and non-detect PFAS with documented effluent guarantees. Sleep soundly before Ministry inspections.

⚡ Recovered Capacity

Treat 2–4× more flow in existing tankage without new construction. Defer capital expansion by years while population or industrial output grows.

Technology Detail

How ICEBT, ANOC and INNPT Work

For engineers and procurement officers who need the technical specification behind the outcomes.

ICEBT

Integrated Chemical Enhanced Biological Treatment

Increase hydraulic loading and improve pollutant removals in wastewater treatment facilities.

ICEBT is an integrated nanocomposite-based technology designed to increase the allowable hydraulic loading and improve pollutant removals in wastewater treatment facilities. It can be used either before primary clarifiers or after secondary clarifiers, making it an effective way of reducing the load to downstream biological processes — or in some cases for direct discharge.

Key Features

Enhanced high-rate clarification (HRC) processes combining chemical coagulation, sludge recirculation, and fast settling
Ballasted flocculation using ANOC compounds that generate metal hydroxide floc with micro-sand particles
Full-time treatment method — usable after biological treatment or for tertiary suspended solids and phosphorus removal
Maintains alkalinity — ANOC compounds adopt sufficient alkalinity to adjust pH into the acceptable range
Wide pH application range with three process types: ballasted flocculation, three-stage flocculation, and dense-solids flocculation

Advantages

Get the absolute most capacity out of existing and new facilities to minimize OPEX and CAPEX
Provide treatment to all flow received regardless of magnitude and duration
Primary clarifiers can remove more TSS and COD/BOD at lower operational cost than conventional processes
Avoids wasting time with traditional treatment methods while saving budget

Applications

Municipal WWTP capacity expansion and debottlenecking
Industrial wastewater pre-treatment and polishing
Wet-weather flow equalization and peak shaving
Tertiary suspended solids and phosphorus removal
Direct discharge compliance for remote facilities

ANOC

Advanced Nano Oxidation Composites

Comprehensive tertiary treatment achieving 90–99% contaminant removal using cutting-edge nanotechnology.

ANOC utilizes cutting-edge nanotechnology to provide comprehensive tertiary treatment for wastewater. These innovative composites are engineered to target and remove a broad spectrum of pollutants, including organic compounds, inorganic substances, and heavy metals — achieving removal efficiencies of 90–99% for critical wastewater parameters.

Discuss ANOC integration →

Key Features

Removal efficiencies of 90–99% for BOD, TSS, COD, TKN, TP, NH₃-N, and Urea
Engineered nanocomposite structure targets organic compounds, inorganics, and heavy metals simultaneously
Includes micro-sand particles that serve as ballast for enhanced settling in ballasted flocculation systems
Adaptable to industrial, municipal, and complex effluents requiring stringent treatment standards
Sustainable and eco-friendly — minimizes ecological footprint while ensuring regulatory compliance

Advantages

Cost-effective operations when integrated into existing treatment systems
Reduces need for multiple treatment stages by handling diverse contaminants in one process
Compact footprint compared to conventional tertiary treatment trains
Proven performance across textile, tannery, oil-drilling, and municipal applications

Applications

Textile and dyeing wastewater colour and COD removal
Tannery effluent heavy metals and organics treatment
Oil-drilling wastewater solids and hydrocarbon removal
Municipal WWTP tertiary polishing for nutrient and solids compliance
Industrial pre-treatment before biological processes

INNPT

Innovative Nanoparticles Technology

Pioneering nano-alkaline additives achieving 90–99% contaminant removal with 60-minute retention time.

INNPT is an innovative nanoparticle technology developed by BioTerraVa for advanced wastewater treatment. Composed of aluminum, ferric and calcium compounds with a huge surface area and high negative charges, INNPT acts as adsorbent, coagulant and precipitator simultaneously. Pilot plants tested across seven Egyptian governorates demonstrated 82–99% COD removal, 92–98% TSS removal, and 100% fecal coliform elimination — all within a 60-minute treatment cycle.

Discuss INNPT integration →

Key Features

Nano-alkaline additives with very large surface area and high negative charges for simultaneous adsorption, coagulation and precipitation
Decreases retention time to 60 minutes for tertiary treatment — compared to hours in conventional plants
Increases treatment efficiency for TSS, COD and BOD up to 99%
100% removal of fecal coliform (MPN/100ml N.D.) with integrated UV disinfection
Recovers phosphorus and nitrogen in sludge for beneficial reuse in agriculture
Removes heavy metals including iron, manganese, cadmium, lead, copper and zinc

Advantages

Saves 60% of initial investment compared to traditional WWTP construction
Saves 80% of construction time
Saves 89% of retention time versus conventional primary-secondary-tertiary trains
Saves 90% of power consumed
Saves 85% of workforce requirements
Saves 80% of land area required

Applications

Municipal WWTP capacity upgrades within existing footprints
Direct tertiary treatment for agricultural reuse compliance
Heavy metals removal from industrial wastewater
Pathogen disinfection for safe water reuse
Phosphorus and nitrogen recovery for circular economy
