Managing Wastewater in the
General Industry
Across general industry, water plays a critical role in daily operations—from cleaning and rinsing to cooling, processing, and surface treatment. Industries such as metal finishing, automotive manufacturing, energy production, textiles, mining, pulp and paper, and plastics processing all generate complex wastewater streams that require reliable and efficient treatment.
Our advanced industrial wastewater treatment systems are designed to manage a wide range of process water and effluent challenges, including heavy metals, oils and grease, suspended solids, and chemical contaminants. Whether supporting cooling water systems, wash water recycling, or production wastewater treatment, we deliver solutions that ensure consistent performance and regulatory compliance.
From compact systems to fully automated, large-scale installations, we help manufacturers optimize water reuse, reduce discharge costs, and improve overall sustainability. With a focus on efficient water management and proven treatment technologies, our solutions are built to support the diverse needs of today’s industrial operations.
Technologies Available
Contaminant Removal
Heavy metals
Common in metal finishing, mining, and manufacturing (e.g., copper, nickel, zinc, chromium).
- Addressed through chemical precipitation, ion exchange, and filtration systems.
Oils and grease (FOG)
Typical in automotive, machining, and oil & gas operations.
- Removed using oil-water separation, DAF (dissolved air flotation), and skimming systems.
Suspended solids (TSS)
Includes dirt, metal fines, fibers, and particulates from processing and washing.
- Controlled with coagulation and flocculation, clarification, and filtration.
Organic contaminants (BOD/COD)
Found in textiles, pulp & paper, and chemical manufacturing.
- Treated using biological treatment systems, oxidation, or advanced filtration.
Address Operational & Compliance Challenges
Regulatory compliance issues
Discharge limits for metals, COD, pH, and other parameters are becoming stricter.
- Treatment systems ensure consistent compliance with environmental regulations.
High water consumption
Many facilities use large volumes of water for cooling, rinsing, and processing.
- Solved with water recycling and reuse systems, reducing freshwater demand.
Sludge generation and handling
Treatment processes create sludge that must be managed efficiently.
- Improved with sludge dewatering systems (filter presses, sludge dryers).
Inconsistent or variable wastewater streams
Flows and contaminant levels can fluctuate significantly.
- Managed with equalization tanks, automation, and robust system design.
