Action B.1, related to the optimization of the process at bench scale, started at both CTM and DOW facilities at the end of 2016 and is expected to finish by July 2017. The ACTIFLO and the MBBR biological processes have been optimized in CTM facilities and the filtration steps and the ion exchange resins in DOW.
