Specialist Industrial
Manufacture

An effective effluent wastewater treatment plant is vital for all specialist industrial manufacturers. 

Water consumption in the manufacturing is huge, whilst the effluent wastewater generated during manufacturing processes can be highly polluted. As a result, effluent treatment plants must ensure compliance with environmental legislation whilst also taking steps to reduce the environmental footprint of the sector. 

Aqua Advice has experience designing effluent treatment chemistry and plants for manufacturing industries. Our industrial wastewater treatment consultants will work with you to identify the most effective treatment solution to meet your compliance demands, protect the environment and save you money. 

Bespoke treatment solutions to solve your effluent challenges

Manufacturing facilities produce industrial effluent that requires specialised treatment and careful management, due to its industry-specific properties. 

Using our experience with manufacturing industries, we can plan, design and install bespoke effluent treatment plant to solve specific challenges, improving efficiency and ensuring compliance: 

Challenges

The challenge:

Manufacturing effluent can contain fats, oils, and grease (FOG), hydrocarbons, flammable liquids, suspended solids, coolants and radiator fluids, heavy metals like lead, zinc, and chromium, and a mix of organic and inorganic pollutants. 

Aqua Advice solution:

We will identify the correct effluent treatment methods for pollutants, ensuring you comply with strict environmental standards and avoid costly fines.


The challenge:

Water is essential at nearly every stage of manufacturing, resulting in concerns about water scarcity and environmental impact. 

Aqua Advice solution:

Our industrial wastewater treatment consultants can design and install effluent treatment plants that minimise water usage and treat wastewater to a high standard, enabling water reuse in manufacturing processes and reducing your overall water demand.


The challenge:

Manufacturing processes such as painting, coating  and component fabrication produce high volumes of wastewater, increasing the risk of equipment corrosion, higher chemical costs and system failures. 

Aqua Advice solution:

We will assess your treatment processes to identify opportunities for improve long-term operational efficiency.


The challenge:

Different treatment processes can hinder overall efficiency. For example, oils and greases can clog filtration systems or membranes, reduce their effectiveness and lead to costly damage and downtime.

Aqua Advice solution:

We will plan and design your treatment plant to avoid system disruptions and ensure optimal performance.

Innovative treatment solutions for heavy metal pollutants

Heavy metal pollutants found in wastewater effluent often produced by manufacturing industries, such as lead, zinc, and chromium, pose a significant risk to human health and the environment if improperly treated. 

What’s more: to reduce the impact of metals in our water systems, the Environment Agency has lowered the consent to discharge levels for heavy metals. They can also now impose larger fines and have greater powers to enforce them.  

As a result, businesses that commit an environmental offence now risk a potentially huge fine, not to mention the reputational damage associated with wastewater pollution.   

Aqua Advice can help protect your business against non-compliance with our innovative methods for heavy metal treatment.

Opportunities for water recycling and reuse

Proper industrial effluent treatment not only ensures compliance with environmental standards but also enables water recycling, reduces your overall water consumption and minimising operational costs.  

Using advanced technologies, we can optimise your existing, upgraded or new treatment plant to make your treated wastewater safe for recycling and reuse.
