Plastic recycling washwater

Plastic recycling washwater and process water is the water used to wash and clean contaminated and polluted plastic before and during the recycling process. Only clean plastic can be treated to produce a high quality recyclate that can be processed by industry. This wastewater can contain a wide range of contaminants depending on the origin […]

Once you have the knowledge regarding the specific pollutants that can be washed from the plastic material that you are going to be recycling, the next step is to consider what specific process water treatment steps you need to use. The core wastewater treatment process is typically standardized for washing line water reuse, however specific […]

Fish industry wastewater

fish industry wastewater treatment

Fish industry wastewater is polluted with various contaminants. It typically contains a very high concentration of organic compounds. These include fish waste, nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus, blood, and also oils and fats. In much smaller quantities, fish industry wastewater contains microorganisms, heavy metals, and cleaning chemicals. This results in a high COD and […]

Slaughterhouse wastewater characteristics

slaughterhouse wastewater

Slaughterhouse wastewater usually has a rust-red to brown colour because fats and other suspended matter mix with blood and faeces. When the meat is further processed, oils and fats mix into the wastewater, giving it a shimmering yellow colour. In both cases, the COD (chemical oxygen demand), BOD5 (biological oxygen demand) and TSS (total suspended […]

abattoir solution

After you understand your wastewater and its composition, you can begin with your customised slaughterhouse wastewater treatment plant design. The right process technology depends above all on the amount of wastewater and the contaminant load it contains. The typical processes for wastewater treatment in slaughterhouses includes dissolved air flotation and biological wastewater treatment using fixed-bed technology. Both processes, as stand-alone solutions, or combined processes, guarantee a reliable and robust treatment for various discharge […]
