INDUSTRIAL WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND PROCESSING

The treatment of wastewater is essential prior to reinjection into the water grid or before water is re-used in processing works. With ever-increasing water costs tied with limited availability and increasingly stringent legislation on contamination, globally, this as an area of key interest to clients.

Wastewater treatment involves the collection and storage of used water, and the removal of contaminants contained in it so that it can be converted into an effluent and recycled back into the water grid or environment.  The following industry sectors specialise in these water and sludge treatment processes:

• Municipal water treatment
• Sewage/sludge treatment
• Mining, food, and beverage
• Pulp and paper
• Animal processing
• Landfill leachate

Large digester tanks situated on water treatment plants contain bacteria that breaks the sludge down to release methane gas, which is then collected as biogas and used to generate electricity or produce bio slurry fertiliser for farmland.

Balmoral Tanks has a long history of providing tank solutions – such as the digester tanks mentioned above - into these sectors, supplying steel and glass tanks to some of the largest municipal water treatment plants in the UK.

Our advanced tank technology is commonly used to aid the following processes:

• Sedimentation
• Aeration
• Clarification
• Chlorination
• Effluent storage
• Anaerobic digestion
• Demineralisation
