Turbidity measurement is an essential parameter in water treatment and wastewater treatment. It describes the degree of light scattering and absorption in a liquid caused by suspended particles such as suspended solids, microorganisms or colloidal impurities. Precise turbidity measurement provides important information about water quality, process stability and efficiency
UASB reactor (Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket reactor) is an anaerobic reactor system for the treatment of organically contaminated wastewater, which is widely used in industrial water and wastewater treatment. The UASB reactor is specially designed to break down dissolved organic substances in wastewater by using anaerobic microorganisms and convert them into biogas (mainly methane and
Excess sludge is a key term in biological wastewater treatment and occurs as a by-product during the treatment of wastewater in activated sludge plants and other biological processes. It consists primarily of microorganisms that break down organic substances from the wastewater and convert them into biomass. As the biomass
Overfill protection is a key safety element in industrial water and wastewater treatment plants and in water technology systems. It is used to prevent overflows and protects containers, tanks and pipes from uncontrolled overfilling. Especially in industrial water treatment systems, chemical-physical treatment (CP systems), cooling water circuits and waste water treatment, the overfill protection plays an important role.
Ultrafiltration is a pressure-driven membrane process that is used to separate particles, colloids and macromolecules from liquids. It plays a central role in industrial water and wastewater treatment and is used for both pre-treatment and direct water treatment. Technical principles Ultrafiltration membranes have a pore size of approx.
An ultrafiltration system (UF system) is an important part of industrial water and wastewater treatment. It uses the principle of ultrafiltration to effectively remove suspended solids, bacteria, viruses and other impurities from water. With a pore size of 0.01 to 0.1 micrometres, the system enables deep-bed filtration in which particles are not
Reverse osmosis (RO) is one of the most advanced and effective water treatment processes. It is used worldwide in various industries, including the food and beverage industry, the chemical industry, electronics production and power generation. With its ability to remove up to 99% of dissolved substances and impurities

Undissolved substances are particles that are present in a liquid medium but are not dissolved at the molecular level. These substances can be of organic origin, such as fats, oils or proteins, or of inorganic origin, such as sand, sludge or metal oxides. In contrast to dissolved substances, whose molecules are homogeneous in the liquid
UV treatment is a physical process used in water and wastewater treatment for disinfection, oxidation and removal of organic compounds. In contrast to chemical processes such as chlorination or ozonation, UV treatment is purely physical and leaves no chemical residues. It is therefore particularly environmentally friendly and is
