A butterfly valve is an important component in industrial water and wastewater technology that is used to regulate, control and shut off pipelines. It belongs to the category of shut-off valves and is used in particular when reliable and fast opening or closing of pipelines is required. The butterfly valve
A gate valve is a shut-off valve that is used to control or completely shut off the flow in piping systems. In industrial water and wastewater treatment, the gate valve is often used to regulate the volume flow of liquids such as water, chemicals or wastewater. It is characterized by a
Wastewater is a generic term for all types of water that are contaminated through domestic, commercial, industrial or agricultural use and therefore require treatment before they are returned to the environment. In industrial water treatment and wastewater treatment, the term primarily refers to water that is contaminated by production processes in the
Wastewater from bakeries belongs to the category of commercial and industrial wastewater and is primarily generated during the production and cleaning of equipment in bakeries. Due to its specific composition, which includes organic loads, fats, oils, flour residues, dough residues and cleaning agents, the treatment of this wastewater places special demands on the
The wastewater from biodiesel production results from the production of biodiesel by transesterification of vegetable oils or animal fats with alcohol (often methanol) and a catalyst (e.g. sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide). These processes lead to the formation of wastewater containing specific impurities such as glycerol, methanol, soaps, fatty acids, oils and
Beverage production involves a variety of processes such as mixing, bottling, cleaning and cooling, all of which use water in different qualities and quantities. As a result, industrial wastewater is produced, which can vary greatly in terms of quantity and composition. The treatment of this wastewater is essential in order to comply with legal requirements, reduce operating costs and minimize
Industrial surface coating comprises a variety of processes, including painting, electroplating, powder coating and anodizing, which are used for the functional and decorative finishing of surfaces. These processes often generate wastewater with complex and sometimes problematic ingredients that require specialized wastewater treatment. The following text describes the composition of the
The wastewater from paper mills is produced in large quantities and contains a variety of impurities caused by the different production processes. A particular characteristic of this wastewater is the high content of lignin, an organic substance that is released during the pulping of wood. In addition to lignin, the wastewater contains
Sugar production is a water-intensive industry that produces large quantities of wastewater containing both organic and inorganic pollutants. In addition to the treatment of process water and the treatment of vapor condensates, wastewater treatment plays a crucial role. Biogas plants, nitrogen and phosphorus elimination as well as specific challenges such as the calcium problem are
Wastewater treatment plants are technical facilities that are used to collect, transport, treat and return treated wastewater from households, industry and commerce to the environment. The aim of these systems is to remove pollutants and impurities before the wastewater is discharged into bodies of water or the sewage system. They provide
