Subsurface Release Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) is a water treatment process that enhances the removal of fine particles and suspended solids. The process involves the dissolving of air into water under pressure and then releasing the air at atmospheric pressure in a flotation tank basin. The released air forms tiny bubbles that adhere to the […]
Partial Flow Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) systems are a type of water treatment process that excels in the removal of suspended solids, oils, and greases from industrial wastewater. This method of treatment is designed to operate with a portion of the total flow, treating and recycling a percentage of the processed water. By introducing air […]
Sequencing batch reactors (SBRs) are a sophisticated and flexible method of treating wastewater that employs a fill-and-draw mechanism. Unlike conventional continuous-flow systems, SBRs handle the various stages of wastewater treatment—equalization, aeration, and sedimentation—in a single reactor by operating in timed sequences. This technology adapts to fluctuating wastewater volumes and compositions, providing high levels of contaminant […]
Rotating Biological Contactors (RBCs) are an efficient means of treating wastewater through a biological process that involves microorganisms affixed to a rotating media. These systems are engineered to remove organic and nitrogenous waste from water by allowing microorganisms to come into contact with waste in the water. An RBC system consists of a series of […]
The treatment of wastewater is a vital process for maintaining the health of our water bodies and the environment at large. One of the pivotal stages in this process is flocculent settling, a method used to remove particulate matter from wastewater. This technique relies on the aggregation of smaller particles into larger ones, known as […]
Cloth media filtration (CMF) stands as an advanced wastewater treatment technology, leveraging the efficiency of cloth media to screen out contaminants from water. This method utilizes a combination of physical training and biological processes, with cloth materials serving as the medium. The particulate matter is captured on the surface or within the depth of the […]
Industrial wastewater encompasses the water used and contaminated by industries in their processes, which is later released into the environment or municipal treatment systems. This type of water waste differs from domestic wastewater in its source and characteristics, with a wide spectrum of pollutants from a variety of industries including manufacturing, mining, and chemical processes. […]
Dissolved air flotation (DAF) is a water treatment process that clarifies wastewater by the removal of suspended matter such as oil, grease, or solids. The removal is achieved by dissolving air in the water or wastewater under pressure and then releasing the air at atmospheric pressure in a flotation tank or basin. The released air […]
Reuse and recycling are essential components of modern waste management that contribute to environmental conservation and efficient resource utilization. By reusing materials, we extend the life cycle of products, reduce the need for new resources, and save energy. Recycling transforms waste into new products, diverting it away from landfills and incinerators. The process involves collecting, […]
