Effluent Treatment

Effluent Treatment, Designed Around What Your Process Discharges.

Industrial wastewater changes from one process to the next. We start with your effluent, then propose treatment that meets the discharge standard you are held to: SUSBIO's IonTreat skid, a conventional civil-built ETP, or a repair of the plant you already have.

SUSBIO IonTreat effluent treatment skid: control panel, electrocoagulation cell, DAF unit, chemical dosing and ultrafiltration modules on one steel frame.

Our Approach

Sample and analyse.
We test what your effluent contains and how much flows each day.
Recommend.
A treatment train matched to the effluent and the standard you must meet.
Install.
A packaged IonTreat skid, or a traditional ETP with its civil works, planned around your operations.
Repair.
We repair and upgrade ETPs already on your site, whoever built them.
Maintain.
Regular servicing, so the plant keeps meeting the standard.

Treatment time

Treated in Under an Hour. Working from Day One.

Biological plants need 2 to 4 weeks to grow their bacteria. Electrochemical treatment starts the day it is switched on.

IONTREAT figures published by SUSBIO. We confirm suitability by analysing your effluent first.

Untreated effluentWith the right ETP
  • Discharge outside consent limits
  • Notices and the risk of closure
  • Fresh water bought for every process
  • Treated to your board’s standard
  • Records ready for inspection
  • Water reused where quality allows

Myth vs fact

What Sites Assume About Effluent

MythEvery ETP is a big biological tank.

Electrochemical treatment needs no bacteria and works from day one.

MythOily, soapy effluent can’t be reused.

Treated, it typically reaches COD under 50 mg/L.

MythAn ETP needs a lot of land.

A 10 KLD skid needs about 15 m².

One technology we offer

Electricity Does the Work Bacteria Would.

SUSBIO's IONTREAT is built for effluent with oil, grease, detergents and colour.

  • Coagulate, oxidise, floatAll in one reactor, in 30 to 60 minutes.
  • Handles shock loadsEmulsified oil and detergents that upset biological plants.
  • About 15 m² for 10 KLDCan sit on top of the equalisation tank.

How it works

Five Steps to a Reuse-Ready Outlet

  1. Screen and trapSolids and fat removed.
  2. EqualiseFlow and strength evened out.
  3. Electrochemical reactorTreated in 30 to 60 minutes.
  4. Float and filterAir flotation and ultrafiltration.
  5. Reuse or dischargeTypically within CPCB and NGT limits.

Questions

Can treated effluent be reused?
Often, depending on its quality and your process. The analysis tells us what is possible.
Do you work with existing plants that are not meeting the standard?
Yes. We repair and upgrade existing effluent treatment plants, including civil-built ones we did not install. We start by testing what the plant receives and what it discharges, then fix or add the stages it needs.
