Effluent Treatment

Water and Wastewater

Effluent and Common Treatment Plants

Effluent and common treatment plants are responsible for treating industrial and domestic wastewater before it is released into the environment. In order to meet regulatory standards for wastewater quality, it is essential to maintain operational efficiency amidst varying influent quality and flow rates.

Common issues faced in ETPs and CETPs include
– Difficulties in meeting compliance parameters
– Chemical and biological imbalances
– Excessive chemical and electrical energy consumption
– Longer resilience/ holding times
– Frequent maintenance of mechanical & electrical equipment

These issues arise due to the following
– Fluctuations in inflow volume or contaminant concentration due to variable loads from the incoming sections
– Insufficient monitoring
– Conventional/ manual operating process

Our Solution:

The holistic solution from Forbes Marshall encompasses

Monitoring the flow of incoming effluent from different sources to the collection tank. Knowing the daily load on the ETP and the exact mix of sources allows operators to more accurately assess the quality of effluent to be treated.

pH monitoring and dosing system for the equalization tank facilitating accurate monitoring and dosing of desired chemicals to equalise effluent for efficient treatment.

Automatic sludge level control for the clarifiers to monitor and drain the sludge eliminating manual intervention and water wastage.

Dissolved oxygen based blower control for the aeration tank enabling plants to maintain dissolved oxygen while optimising energy consumption

Multi-parameter analyser to monitor COD, BOD, TSS, TDS and pH levels and evaluate the final outlet quality of treated water in the treated water tank.

Complete remote monitoring of the ETP with key reports including daily loads, Specific chemical consumption, Specific energy consumption, Percentage recovery/ reusable water and operator alerts.
