About Industrial Wastewater Treatment

Industrial Wastewater Treatment is a process used to treat various types of wastewaters generated during production processes of different types of industries. After treatment the effluent maybe recycled/reused in the process itself OR for low end applications within the factory OR discharged into the sewer drains/surface waters.

While discharge of treated effluent into the drains/water bodies it is of prime importance that the effluent quality meets the govt. regulations/pollution control board discharge norms. Some industries have been successful at redesigning their manufacturing processes to reduce or eliminate pollutants.

Sources of industrial wastewater include battery manufacturing, chemical manufacturing, electric power plants, food industry, iron and steel industry, metal working, mines and quarries, nuclear industry, oil & gas extraction, petroleum refining and petrochemicals, pharmaceutical manufacturing, pulp & paper industry, smelters, textile mills, industrial oil contamination, water treatment and wood industry.

Treatment processes include brine treatment, solids removal (e.g., chemical precipitation, filtration), oils and grease removal, removal of biodegradable organics, removal of other organics, removal of acids and alkalis, and removal of toxic materials.
