Lobster has extensive and in-depth knowledge of the physical/chemical and biological processes that take place at a wastewater treatment plant, including the methods and technologies used in water and sludge treatment.

There are many interrelationships at a wastewater treatment plant that need to be kept track of. Some connections are obvious, while others are more complex and perhaps less visible. All interrelationships – big or small – can be crucial choosing the best solution.

Lobster provides help in documenting and visualizing relevant option scenarios that can help you and your utility to choose the “best fit” solution in terms of priorities and wishes. This could be input in the form of process technical- and economical calculations and statements that can help you move forward in the decision-making process. Or the preparation of an overall design concept and outline proposal for internal and/or external documentation. Or for external communication with stakeholders such as authorities, neighbors, companies, technology suppliers and contractors. Or in the form of daily collaboration and sparring that can supplement your own internal professional competencies in-house and/or together with your preferred external partners.

In all cases, 100% impartial advice is guaranteed.

It is important that your utility ultimately chooses technical, robust and sustainable solutions that fits you priorities and that are made on an informed basis that is technical documented based on your chosen priorities, such as economy, security of supply, environment/climate, stakeholders etc.
