Aeration is a central process in industrial water treatment and wastewater treatment and is mainly used to introduce oxygen into the water or wastewater. This oxygen is required by aerobic microorganisms to break down organic compounds in biological purification processes such as the activated sludge process. Aeration not only ensures the oxygen input,
Bentonite is a naturally occurring, highly swellable clay mineral consisting mainly of the clay type montmorillonite. It is characterized by its high adsorption capacity and ion exchange capacity, which makes it a versatile material in various industrial applications, especially in water and wastewater treatment. In practice, bentonite is used
Operational management in the field of industrial water and wastewater treatment refers to the systematic management, monitoring and optimization of water treatment plants and wastewater treatment systems. The aim is to ensure the efficient operation of plants, guarantee water quality, conserve resources and guarantee compliance with environmental regulations. A professional

Operating resources in industrial water and wastewater treatment are essential components that are used to optimize the functioning and efficiency of plants. They include a variety of chemicals, materials and technical aids that are necessary to control, improve or maintain water treatment processes. Operating resources come in various
An operating logbook is a central component of the documentation and monitoring of water treatment and wastewater treatment plants. It serves to seamlessly record all relevant operating data, events and measures that occur in the daily operation of a plant. These records are not only important for optimizing plant operation and planning maintenance work,
A biofilter is a technical system that is used for the biological purification of water or air. It is based on the activity of microorganisms that break down pollutants or convert them into harmless compounds. Biofilters are widely used in industrial water and wastewater treatment, where they remove organic impurities and nitrogen compounds.
Biofiltration is a biological process for the purification of water and wastewater that is based on the use of microorganisms that are colonized in special filter media. These microorganisms break down organic and inorganic impurities through biochemical processes. Biofiltration is particularly efficient in the removal of organic residues, nitrogen compounds and
A biofiltration system is a technical device for the biological purification of water and wastewater in which microorganisms on special growth media (filter materials) are used to break down organic compounds and other contaminants. Biofiltration systems rely on biochemical processes in which the microorganisms use the pollutants as a food source and convert them into harmless end products.
Biofouling refers to the biological fouling of surfaces in water treatment plants, particularly on membranes, pipes, heat exchangers and other components that come into contact with water. It is caused by the growth and accumulation of microorganisms such as bacteria, algae, fungi and other biofilms, which accumulate on surfaces and form a slime layer (biofilm). This
