2024 was a year full of growth, innovation and success for our company. Despite challenging economic conditions, we achieved many milestones together with our employees, partners and customers. We would like to share the most important events and developments of our year below.
Ion exchangers are indispensable components in water treatment. They specifically remove dissolved ions from the water and adapt its quality to a wide range of requirements - whether for industrial processes, the production of demineralized water or the recycling of process water. In this article, we explain how cation and anion exchangers work, which ions can be removed by the different types of resin and when it makes sense to use a CO₂ trickle filter.
Biofiltration offers an effective way of pretreating organically contaminated wastewater so that it is optimally prepared for further treatment in reverse osmosis systems. Organic compounds and nitrogen are specifically broken down with the help of sessile microorganisms.
The sustainable and efficient treatment of wastewater and sewage sludge is one of the biggest challenges facing municipal wastewater treatment plants today. With our new ZUMISPEK research project, we are taking an innovative approach to both optimizing phosphorus recovery and increasing the energy yield in wastewater treatment plants.
On November 14, 2024, we had the great opportunity to present our research projects at the Transferexchange of HESSENMETALL. Together with our representatives, Laura Loreth and Maksim Milosevic, we presented innovative solutions and developments that are helping to shape the future of industrial water and wastewater treatment.
The Transferexchange provided an ideal platform to promote the transfer of knowledge and technology between industry and colleges/universities in Hesse. The open and cooperative environment facilitated exciting discussions and exchanges about current challenges and innovative approaches in water technology.
We are delighted to present our first Sustainability Report 2024! The report impressively shows how we at ALMAWATECH take our responsibility towards the environment seriously and how our technologies and processes not only reduce our carbon footprint, but also help our customers to use resources more efficiently.
Various metals are used in industrial cooling systems, each with specific properties and benefits. Selecting and applying the right chemical treatment agents is critical to prevent corrosion, minimize deposits and maximize system efficiency. This article highlights the most common metals used in cooling systems, their properties and the chemical measures that need to be taken to protect them.
We are delighted to welcome Ms. Laura Loreth to ALMAWATECH! She is writing her master's thesis with us and is working on a highly relevant topic: the further development of control technology for load-proportional dosing of operating materials in wastewater treatment plants.
The monitoring of cooling water systems is crucial for the efficiency and safety of systems. With the ALMATrol Std Assembly, we offer an innovative solution that optimizes the operation of your cooling circuits and ensures compliance with legal requirements thanks to its compact design and versatile control functions. Read our blog article to find out how this technology can optimize the monitoring and control of your cooling circuit.
Find out how wastewater is adjusted to a neutral pH value by using CO₂ before it is discharged into the sewer, thereby binding CO₂. This technology not only neutralizes the wastewater, but also serves as a CO₂ sink and significantly reduces a company's ecological footprint.
