Wastewater System Treatments

Defoamers

The Best Defoamers

We offer kosher, silicone, and non-silicone defoamers to reduce foam. We also have a choice of versatile, non-silicate defoamers that are approved for surface water application and can be used in wastewater treatment systems (WWTS) and manufacturing cleaning tanks. Our eco-friendly option, which can be used in physical and biological chemical systems, won’t impede bacterial growth and requires no additional defoamer.

Odor Elimination

We Can Help

Odor problems in rinse waters, holding tanks, solid waste, collection systems, and other areas in a WWTS is an all-too-common problem. Common causes of nasty odors include an accumulation of solids on the sides and at the bottom of a tank, bacteria in rinse waters, a concentration of waste, and other factors. We can help you determine the cause and offer a solution to eliminate that odor.

Eliminating Solids

Determine the Cause & Solution

Floating and Suspended Solids in wastewater is another common issue. Your first step in eliminating those solids is to determine the cause. Whether it’s excess polymer or oxidizer, bacteria, or the need for heavier floc, we can help you determine the solution.

Water Clarification

Cloudy or Hazy Water?

Cloudy or hazy wastewater can be caused by a number of issues, such as overdosing on coagulant or emulsion-based polymer, residual emulsified oil or surfactants, or the addition of the wrong polymer. We can help you determine the problem and clear up your wastewater.

Oil Removal

Customized Solutions

If you find oil in your wastewater, we can help get rid of it with a customized solution, which might include pretreatment chemistry, skimmers, flocculating agents, or other treatments.

Hex Chrome Reduction

After Precipitation

You need to be careful when introducing hexavalent to your wastewater. We offer solutions to reduce chrome after precipitation. Recently, we assisted a military metal finishing plant that was having issues treating hexavalent chromate rinses with cadmium. We showed them how to treat cadmium to low levels and reduce chrome and chelated metals.

High Metals Concentration

Over 74 Years of Experience

With over 74 years of experience in both wastewater treatment and metal finishing, our experts can help you reduce the concentration of heavy metals in your wastewater.
