News from industrial water technology

Our ALMA Neutra neutralization system was successfully commissioned and now ensures the automatic neutralization of alkaline wastewater. Industrial companies are often faced with the challenge of reliably adjusting their wastewater to the permitted pH value before it is discharged. The ALMA Neutra was designed for a maximum throughput capacity of 75 m³ per day and enables precise pH regulation and optimum utilization of the used acids.

The Water Resources Act (WHG) and the AwSV regulate the safe handling of substances hazardous to water. What companies must observe when storing, filling or using - explained in compact form.

What does the path to a new wastewater treatment plant look like - step by step from the perspective of an engineer at an industrial company?
This is exactly what this interview with Tobias Höfer, Project Manager at MÖLLER Medical GmbH in Fulda, Germany, is about. The company, which has stood for precision in medical technology for over 70 years, planned and implemented a new chemical-physical wastewater treatment plant together with ALMAWATECH in 2023. In this interview, Mr. Höfer explains how he got to grips with the complex topic as a career changer, what challenges had to be overcome during the project planning and integration of the plant - and what really matters when choosing a plant manufacturer.

Wastewater treatment in the metal industry requires efficient and reliable solutions in order to comply with the legal requirements of Annex 40 of the Wastewater Ordinance and at the same time ensure economical and stable operation. Chemical-physical (CP) plants (also known as precipitation and flocculation plants) play a central role here, as they represent an efficient and adaptable method for treating industrial wastewater with different levels of contamination.

A high TOC value is a major problem for industrial reverse osmosis and water recycling plants, as organic contamination impairs efficiency and increases operating costs. In this article, we show how our ALMA BioFil Compact biofiltration system effectively solves this challenge.
