Plant/Process Description:
Advance Agro treats Waste water using complete
mixed activated sludge process (biological
treatment), the process is compatible with
Scandinavian standards in the different stages of
treatment:
Preliminary water treatment:
All wastewater flows through through an automatic
step screen to separate larger material such as
pieces of woods and other material. From the step
screen the water flows to a mixing tank for pH
adjustment to neutral pH optimal for
micro-organisms in later biological treatment
stage. From the mixing tank water flows by gravity
to a clarifier and then to an equalization pond
for smoothing out organic loading.
The temperature is adjusted before
entering the biological treatment by cooling
towers and Nutrients are added such as Urea and
Phosphate for the bacteria.
Activated sludge system:
The water from the pretreatment is delivered to
aerated pond (16,000 m3) equipped with underwater
air-transfer mixers (aerators 12m deep) to
keep oxygen concentrations in the mixed media
suitable for the consistent growth of bacteria
digest the organic substances in the waste water
until all degradable organic matter in the
wastewater is consumed.
Then, the processed water overflows to a
sedimentation tank (clarifier) to separate biomass
from the water and produce clean water which has
BOD and COD levels compatible with the standards
regulated by the Department of Industrial Works in
Thailand.
The Advance Agro facilities where constructed in
steps during 1996 - 2008 and consists of 3 water
treatment plants with a capacity of 40,000 m3/d
each (totally 120,000 m3/d = 22,000 USG/minute) and
3 identical effluent treatment plants with a
capacity of 24,000 m3/d each (totally 70,000 m3/d
= 12,841 USG/minute).
These facilities service a pulp and paper mill
complex as well as an Industrial Park with 30+
factories as well as a number of housing estates.
The emission standards are as strict in Thailand
as anywhere else in the world and are followed
strictly by our operations using European
technology.
Treated water is reused without harming the
environment:
All water after treatment meeting with the
standard will not be delivered to the public
reservoirs, but Advance Agro brings the treated
water to a large holding pond (10M m3) in order to
be used for
plantation (Pulp & Paper mill raw material)
irrigation around the factory. The plantation area
is about 8,000 rai (1 rai is 1600 m2), growth rate
of the planted trees is roughly 6 years to
harvest.
Moreover, Advance Agro uses this treated water to
supply water to our green areas in and around the
factory.
