Scottish Water
The River Almond 1D model was developed for Scottish Water to provide simulations of flow and water quality. It is intended to be an investment decision support tool for assessing issues affecting water quality within the river network. It will also inform design of solutions to address identified concerns. Regulatory drivers for this study are the Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive (EC01), the Freshwater Fish Directive (EC04) and the Water Framework Directive (EC10). TechnoEconomica carried out a review and mini audit of the 1D model in order to satisfy Scottish Water that the model was appropriately configured, stable and sufficiently accurate for its intended purpose.
