Practical laboratory and pilot plant tests form the basis for well-founded feasibility studies in industrial water and wastewater treatment.
In our pilot plant, we test the treatability of wastewater, develop suitable processes and validate process parameters under real conditions.
In our new image film, we show how ALMAWATECH turns a project inquiry into a complete water or wastewater treatment plant - from planning and plant construction to commissioning and the supply of process additives. Get to know our way of working and find out how we combine technology, experience and service to create integrated solutions.
An ALMA CHEM MCW CP batch plant was successfully commissioned in Leipzig. It treats around 20 m³ of specialty chemicals wastewater per week and reliably removes heavy metals, AOX, hydrocarbons and chromium(VI). Precipitation, flocculation, neutralization, chamber filter press, gravel filter and ion exchanger ensure compliance with the limit values in Annex 40.
A modern ALMA BHU EGSB reactor in stainless steel construction was successfully commissioned at a leading bioethanol producer. The two-stage reactor (680 m³, 24 m high, 6 m diameter) is designed for a load of 10,000 kg COD/day and mainly treats vapor condensates and mixed wastewater from production. Thanks to the innovative 3-phase separator with round gas collection system, the plant operates stably, without clogging and without foaming - and at the same time produces valuable biogas for the energy supply.
This year's company outing took the ALMAWATECH team to Endress+Hauser Liquid Analysis in Gerlingen. There we gained exciting insights into the latest developments in measurement technology and were able to experience first-hand how modern analysis systems are created during a factory tour. After a cultural tour of Solitude Palace, we rounded off the day with good food and drinks. A successful mix of professional training, culture and team building!
The replacement of reverse osmosis membranes in a river water treatment plant revealed that sand and gravel had irreversibly damaged the membranes. The case illustrates how crucial robust pre-treatment is in order to ensure operational safety, cost-effectiveness and a long service life.
Neutralization systems are indispensable components in industrial wastewater treatment. They ensure that acidic or alkaline wastewater is reliably adjusted to a permissible pH range, thus guaranteeing both legal limits and the protection of downstream processes. In addition to traditional neutralization with acids and alkalis, CO₂ neutralization is becoming increasingly important, as it is characterized by higher operational safety, better environmental compatibility and sustainable economic efficiency.
Visualization and control is an essential component of modern wastewater and process water systems. At ALMAWATECH, we develop the software in-house and adapt it individually to each system. With Siemens Unified Comfort Panels, we ensure a clear user interface, transparent process visualization and reliable data recording. This provides operators with a visualization that is precisely tailored to their technical requirements.
ALMAWATECH invites you to the first Industrial Water Day in Austria. An exciting program on chemical-physical and biological wastewater treatment, membrane technologies, research & development and trends in industrial water technology awaits you at Tabakfabrik Linz. Lectures, panel discussions and best-practice examples from industry and science make the event a central meeting point for the industry.
Find out how fully mixed reactors with biomass recirculation, UASB and EGSB systems work, what advantages each process offers and for which types of wastewater they are best suited. Including practical knowledge on dissolved and undissolved substances and their optimal treatment.
