Organic wastewater with loads and flow rates influenced by production cycles, washing and seasonality.
Biological · separations · membranesEach sector has its own dynamics. The project, however, always starts from the real characteristics of the wastewater, their variability and the objective to be achieved.
From wastewater to process, not from catalogue to plant
Understanding the production process helps characterise the wastewater, anticipate variability and define a consistent treatment line.
Organic wastewater with loads and flow rates influenced by production cycles, washing and seasonality.
Biological · separations · membranesCurrents with high organic component, fats and variations related to processing.
Pretreatment · biologicalManagement of seasonal peaks, washes and organic loads variable during production.
Equalisation · biologicalTreatment of solids, fats, organic matter and nitrogen from processing.
DAF · biological · sludgeWashing effluents containing surfactants, solids and compositions linked to the materials being treated.
Physicochemical · membranesTreatment lines defined through analytical characterisation and the presence of specific components.
Integrated processes · AOPTreatments based on composition, biodegradability and discharge or recovery objectives.
Physicochemical · biologicalManagement of complex wastewater through preliminary separations and combined processes.
Separation · polishing
Every sector has different needs. We select the process according to wastewater characteristics, flow rates and treatment objectives.
Revamping, upgrading and integration on existing plants are also available, subject to technical evaluation.
Share available analysis, flow rates, variability and final goal. Sereco technicians can frame the problem and the possible treatment phases.
The liquid fraction of digestate may require biological treatment, membrane separation and further polishing, depending on its characteristics and discharge objective. Sereco has also completed a specific plant documented in a case study.
