The Benefits Of Customised Industrial Wastewater Treatment Systems Tailored To Your Industry
There is no one-size-fits-all solution for industrial wastewater treatment. The contaminants in wastewater can vary greatly depending on the industry or business, necessitating a customised approach for effective treatment. This article will look at the benefits of customised wastewater treatment systems for three different types of treatment systems that SWA Water provides: industrial oil separators, dissolved air flotation (DAF) units and lamella solid separators.
Industrial Oil Separators
Industrial oil separators play a crucial role in wastewater treatment systems by effectively removing oil and other hydrocarbons from contaminated water. However, the type and concentration of these contaminants can vary significantly depending on the industry. For instance, the oil present in wastewater from a food processing plant may differ from that found in a mechanical workshop. To ensure optimal performance, wastewater treatment systems must be customised to address the specific composition of the wastewater, providing efficient and industry-specific solutions for oil separation.
Industries that would benefit from a customised industrial oil separator include:
Food and beverage – Wastewater from food and beverage processing plants often contains oils and fats that need to be removed before the water can be discharged.
Automotive and mechanical workshops – These industries generate wastewater that contains oil and grease from machinery and engines, which needs to be treated before it can be discharged.
Mining – The mining industry generates wastewater that contains oil and hydrocarbons, which need to be removed to prevent pollution.
A customised customised wastewater treatment systems can provide the following benefits:
Efficient oil and hydrocarbon removal – A customised oil separator is designed to remove the specific types of oil and hydrocarbons found in wastewater, making the treatment process more efficient and effective.
Reduced maintenance and operating costs – A customised oil separator can be designed to minimise the risk of blockages, which reduces maintenance and operating costs.
Compliance with regulations – Industrial oil separators are regulated by various government agencies. A customised solution can be designed to meet regulatory requirements, ensuring compliance.
Dissolved Air Flotation Units
Dissolved air flotation (DAF) is a treatment process that removes suspended solids, fats, oils and greases from wastewater. Industries that would benefit from a customised DAF unit include:
Food and beverage – Wastewater from food and beverage processing plants often contains suspended solids and organic matter that need to be removed before the water can be discharged.
Pulp and paper – The pulp and paper industry generates wastewater that contains suspended solids, fibres and other organic matter that need to be removed before the water can be discharged.
Mining – The mining industry generates wastewater that contains suspended solids and minerals that need to be removed before the water can be discharged.
A customised DAF unit can provide the following benefits:
Targeted removal of contaminants – DAF units can be customised to remove specific contaminants found in wastewater. This results in more efficient treatment and better-quality effluent.
Increased efficiency – A customised DAF unit is designed to optimise the treatment process for a particular industry, resulting in increased efficiency and reduced operating costs.
Improved sludge management – A customised DAF unit can be designed to produce less sludge, reducing disposal costs.
Lamella Solid Separators
Lamella solid separators are used to remove solids from wastewater. They are commonly used in industries such as:
Food and beverage – Wastewater from food and beverage processing plants often contains solids, such as food particles and fibres, that need to be removed before the water can be discharged.
Pulp and paper – The pulp and paper industry generates wastewater that contains solids, such as wood fibres and ash, that need to be removed before the water can be discharged.
Mining – The mining industry generates wastewater that contains solids, such as minerals and heavy metals, that need to be removed before the water can be discharged.
A customised lamella solid separator can provide the following benefits:
Efficient solids removal – A customised lamella solid separator can be designed to remove specific types and sizes of solids, resulting in more efficient treatment.
Reduced maintenance – A customised lamella solid separator can be designed to minimise the risk of blockages, reducing maintenance and operating costs.
Increased capacity – A customised lamella solid separator can be designed to increase capacity, enabling the treatment plant to handle higher volumes of wastewater.
A customised industrial wastewater treatment solution tailored to a specific industry or business can provide numerous benefits. By partnering with a reputable wastewater treatment company such as SWA Water, businesses can obtain a customised solution that meets their specific needs and provides optimal results.
