Industrial wastewater treatment: three tips for your business

The treatment of industrial wastewater is an issue that affects a wide range of businesses. As we strive to become more environmentally responsible, more and more companies are looking at how best to deal with this issue.

Whilst it might seem like a complicated process, there are three things you can do to make the treatment of wastewater simpler:

Identify the industrial wastewater requiring treatment

Firstly, different industries produce different types of wastewater.

For instance, the food industry, electric power plants, and aerospace are just a few of the industries who need to consider wastewater chemical treatment prior to production.

Ascertaining the correct chemistry and process conditions required to treat this wastewater is key.

Companies such as Aqua Advice can provide free laboratory trials to achieve this. They can provide technical support both on and off site to ensure the chemistry is working to its optimum level.

Find the right treatment plant for your business

Secondly, there is no one size fits all when it comes to the treatment of wastewater.

It is important to find the right processes for your business, which will depend on the type of wastewater you produce. 

It may be that your existing treatment facilities can be upgraded. Alternatively, a bespoke effluent treatment plant might be required to effectively treat the industrial wastewater you produce.

There are a variety of different plants available, including chemical precipitation, pH correction and dewatering systems.

Consult the wastewater treatment experts
