Our Clonmel WWTP Aeration Basin Upgrade project team took home the 2024 CECA Excellence Award in the under €2 million category in Dublin tonight.

The project scope for the Clonmel WWTP Aeration Basin Upgrade was to design, supply, install, commission, operation and maintain a new Fine Bubble Diffused Aeration Systems to replace the existing surface aeration systems in the existing four aeration tanks at Clonmel WWTP. 

Murphy was able to improve the efficiency of the final proposed solution by increasing the depth of the Aeration Basins using an innovative baffle system. 

The post upgrade monitoring demonstrated a 75% reduction in Energy consumption from 2060 kWh/day to 500 kWh/day. This equates to a reduction of 568,000kWh/year.
