Waste Water Treatment System for Concrete Recycling Facilities
FY 2024-25 · 2024-08-20
Summary
The firm is developing a unique water treatment system for concrete recycling facilities to enhance capacity and meet stringent regulatory standards. Their current 60 gpm system can't handle peak rainfall, posing environmental risks. The firm is targeting to scale up to a 200 gpm system with automation to reduce manual intervention and improve efficiency. This project is unique due to the specific nature of our wastewater, characterized by high pH and TSS levels. The firm's approach addresses the current challenges, offering a tailored solution for the industry. Successful implementation of the technology will set a new standard in wastewater treatment, ensuring compliance and operational efficiency.

Description (French)
L’entreprise développe un système unique de traitement de l’eau pour les installations de recyclage du béton afin d’améliorer la capacité et de répondre à des normes réglementaires strictes. Leur système actuel, d’une capacité de 60 gpm, n’est pas en mesure de gérer les pics de précipitations, ce qui présente des risques pour l’environnement. L’entreprise souhaite passer à un système de 200 gpm avec automatisation afin de réduire les interventions manuelles et d’améliorer l’efficacité. Ce projet est unique en raison de la nature spécifique de nos eaux usées, caractérisées par des niveaux élevés de pH et de MES. L’approche de l’entreprise permet de relever les défis actuels, en offrant une solution sur mesure pour l’industrie. La mise en œuvre réussie de la technologie établira une nouvelle norme en matière de traitement des eaux usées, garantissant la conformité et l’efficacité opérationnelle.
