How to Recycle Degreasing Wastewater
A metallurgical industry seeking to optimize its effluent management faced significant volumes of degreasing wastewater to be retreated. To address this challenge, a compact solution integrating a lamellar settler and a coagulation-flocculation process was implemented, allowing for efficient separation of oil and water.
This system significantly reduced the waste to be treated while maximizing the recycling of oils and sedimented particles. Easy to integrate into an industrial environment, this installation offered an efficient and economical solution to improve the treatment of degreasing wastewater.
How to Recycle Degreasing Wastewater with a Compact and Efficient Solution?
To treat degreasing effluents in the metallurgical industry, a solution was implemented to separate oil from water and reduce the volumes of waste to be retreated.
Through the integration of a lamellar settler and a coagulation-flocculation process, this system allows for the recovery of oils and sedimented particles. Compact and easy to install, it adapts to industrial constraints while ensuring efficient and economical treatment.
This treatment requires the following elements:
A degreasing wastewater step to effectively separate oil and water, reducing the amount of oil to be retreated.
A buffer tank to store water awaiting treatment before applying the coagulation-flocculation process.
A static mixer to perform coagulation, ensuring optimal agglomeration of fine particles.
A flocculation process to allow particles to group together, facilitating their separation during settling.
A compact lamellar settler to efficiently separate treated water from sludge, while minimizing space requirements on site.
A floating oil recovery system, allowing for their recycling and reducing the amount of waste to be treated.
Residue management in containers, sent for specialized treatment to reduce environmental impact.
A modular and compact design, allowing for quick installation and adaptability in reduced industrial spaces, with ready-to-connect equipment.
Optimization of Degreasing Wastewater Treatment with a Compact and Efficient Solution
The combination of a buffer tank, a coagulation-flocculation process, and a lamellar settler allows for effective treatment of degreasing wastewater. The treatment begins with the separation of oil and water, followed by flocculation to agglomerate fine particles, facilitating their settling. The compact lamellar settler ensures clear separation of treated water and sludge, while the recovery of floating oils allows for their recycling. This modular and flexible system adapts to industrial site constraints, while reducing environmental footprint and waste treatment costs.
An Innovative Solution for Treating Degreasing Wastewater
The integration of a coagulation-flocculation system with a lamellar settler has met the treatment needs for degreasing wastewater in a renovating industrial site. This compact and modular solution, easily transportable and installable, has optimized water treatment by efficiently separating oil from water and facilitating oil recycling. Adapted to space constraints and flow variations, it has significantly reduced waste to be treated while complying with environmental requirements.
Cost Reduction and Environmental Footprint Optimization
The integration of a degreasing wastewater treatment solution, combining coagulation-flocculation and a lamellar settler, has not only reduced treatment costs but also optimized the industry’s environmental footprint. This solution effectively separated oil and water, facilitating maximum recycling of oils and sludge management. The system thus contributed to a significant decrease in the volume of waste to be treated. Moreover, its compact and modular design allowed for quick and flexible installation, respecting factory space constraints while optimizing industrial processes.
Optimization Through Efficient Flow Separation and Improved Waste Management
The combination of coagulation-flocculation and the lamella clarifier allowed for precise separation of oil and water, thus maximizing oil recycling and sludge management. The integration of a buffer tank enabled smoother effluent treatment while reducing the volume of waste to be processed. This modular and compact solution perfectly adapts to factory space constraints and offers flexibility to meet future production needs, thus contributing to a reduced environmental footprint while ensuring optimal performance.
Concrete Results: Efficiency and Environmental Footprint Reduction
By combining coagulation-flocculation and the lamella clarifier, this solution allowed for optimal separation of oil and water, ensuring maximum oil recycling and efficient sludge management. The generated sludge is easily evacuated into containers and sent for further treatment, contributing to sustainable waste management. This approach has demonstrated its effectiveness and reliability, even in demanding industrial conditions, while reducing the industry’s environmental footprint and maximizing resource reuse.
