Wastewater treatment for flue gas cleaning and ash handling in municipal waste incineration plants.
Coal-fired power plant wastewater treatment. Flue gas desulphurisation, ash handling water and cooling tower blowdown.
Water and wastewater treatment for fgd wastewater treatment. Cooling, boiler feed and effluent compliance for power generation.
Cooling water treatment for power plants. Filtration, chemical dosing, side-stream treatment and blowdown management.
Oil and gas wastewater treatment for natural gas combined cycle.
Waste incineration plants generate wastewater from flue gas cleaning systems and ash handling. These streams contain heavy metals, salts, suspended solids, and organic compounds requiring comprehensive treatment.
Wet scrubber blowdown contains heavy metals, salts, and acids from flue gas treatment requiring specialised chemical precipitation.
Challenge: High TDS, metals
Bottom ash quenching water contains soluble salts, heavy metals, and fine particulates requiring clarification and filtration.
Challenge: High suspended solids
Boiler blowdown, cooling tower discharge, and general plant wastewater requiring treatment for discharge or reuse.
Challenge: Variable quality
Zero liquid discharge systems maximise water recovery and minimise environmental impact of waste incineration.
Benefit: 90%+ recovery
Our waste-to-energy treatment includes metals precipitation for heavy metals removal, clarification for solids separation, and advanced biological treatment for organic removal. Systems handle the high salt content typical of flue gas cleaning wastewater.
Hydroxide and sulphide precipitation systems remove heavy metals to meet strict discharge requirements.
Removal: 99%+ metals
LAMELLA clarifiers provide compact, efficient solids separation for precipitated metals and suspended solids.
Capacity: 25 m³/m²/h
Dissolved air flotation removes fine particles, oils, and light solids from scrubber wastewater.
Removal: >95% TSS
Multimedia and self-cleaning filters provide final suspended solids removal for discharge-quality effluent.
Polishing: < 10 ppm TSS
Screw presses and centrifuges reduce sludge volume by 80-90%, minimising hazardous waste disposal requirements.
Cake: 20-25% solids
Pre-engineered containerised systems for rapid deployment and minimal site installation requirements.
Benefit: Plug-and-play
Treatment ensures compliance with stringent discharge requirements for waste incineration facilities. Water recovery and reuse support the sustainability mission of waste-to-energy operations.
Meets Waste Incineration Directive requirements for wastewater discharge from flue gas treatment systems.
Standard: 2010/75/EU
Water recovery systems align with the circular economy principles of waste-to-energy facilities.
Recovery: 90%+ water
Proper wastewater treatment prevents secondary pollution and supports overall plant emissions performance.
Benefit: Clean discharge
Water reuse and sludge volume reduction minimise operating overheads and improve plant feasibility.
Saving: 40% efficiency improvement
