Wastewater Treatment chemicals – Chemtex Speciality Ltd

 

 

Wastewater is any water whose quality has been adversely affected by human activity. Wastewater can begin from a variety of sources such as residential, industrial, business, or agricultural activities, etc. Depending on the source, the composition of wastewater ranges from mildly polluted stormwater run-off to toxic wastewater from chemicals, pharmaceutical, and metal industries. The presence of pathogens, organic and inorganic matter, suspended particulates matter, dissolved gases, paint emulsions, pesticides, bio-solids, and many more undesirable substances can impair the quality of water.

Why treat waste water?

Domestic wastewater contains a large amount of solid material, food particles, toilet paper, grease, oil, soap, salts, metal detergent, pharmaceutical, and personal care products. Industrial wastewater is released from different commercial and manufacturing units such as textiles, printing, F&B, and production to name a few. it contains toxic chemicals, organic effluents, harmful microorganisms. The discharge of industrial, commercial waste into nearby water sources is another major cause of water pollution. The effects can be seen on water resources such as streams, ponds, tanks, and pipelines, which are often contaminated or polluted due to the discharge of sewage and garbage. Different kinds of germs which cause diseases grow in polluted water. There are a number of ways in which wastewater can cause pollution problems. These water bodies are the main sources of many other domestic applications. So, Proper treatments need to be carried out before it is exposed to another body of water.

Simple ways by which contamination of water can be prevented:

·         Preventing microbial contamination by using advanced technologies

·         Water sources should not be contaminated by farm run-off with chemicals and pathogens

·         Use of pesticides should be reduced

·         Reducing industrial wastes being discharged onto agricultural fields

·         Safer practices for the use of wastewater

·         Should not throw discarded antibiotics or other medication down the toilet or sink


By treating wastewater, we can protect the environment and the planet as a whole. Wastewater treatment easily removes impurities from wastewater and is converted into an effluent that can be returned back to the water cycle or reused. The treatment process takes place in a wastewater treatment plant.

The primary level of treatment includes the removal of unwanted, suspended, or dissolved solids from sewage. In this process, strong objects are trapped by sieving procedures and suspended solids are eliminated by sedimentation. These large materials are disposed of at the landfill.

Secondary treatment also removes remaining biodegradable matter and suspended solids that may have missed out on the primary level of treatment. In this process, wastewater gets mixed with bacteria and oxygen. The oxygen helps to eradicate pollutants faster. Then the water is taken to settling tanks where the sludge again settles, leaving the water free of pollutants.

Tertiary treatment eradicates a relatively considerable number of polluting elements and remaining dissolved substances like color, metals, organic chemicals, and nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus. This chemical treatment involves the use of physical, chemical, and biological techniques to remove contaminants from water.

Chemtex Speciality Limited manufactures waste water treatment chemicals meeting all standard requirements, helping in the removal and elimination of harmful pathogens, bacteria, taking out hazardous chemicals, detergents, and toxins from the wastewater.

RO Antiscalant

Reverse Osmosis serves as one of the most critical processes that are involved in the process water treatment to clean water, utilized in various industrial process applications. Reverse Osmosis can be regarded as the process wherein semi-permeable membranes help in separating purified water from contaminated water. It occurs when a pressure is applied to the concentrated side of the membrane resulting in forcing purified water to the dilute side. Reverse Osmosis is very efficient for the treatment of brackish, surface and ground water for both large and small flow applications. Some examples of industries that use RO water include boiler feed water, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, metal finishing and semiconductor manufacturing to mention a few. The overall performance of a reverse osmosis system relies on various factors like feed water quality, membrane type, flow control, temperature and pressure. Systems must be well maintained for ensuring effective performance with any

Hybrid Organic Acid Technology (HOAT) Coolant

Optimal use of machines is directly proportional to its engine performance. What an engine does is it converts the supplied energy into its mechanical form, driving the machine to work. Engines require one-third of total heat that is generated during conversion and the rest of the heat is needed to be evacuated from the combustion chamber which would otherwise lead to engine failure. Earlier, water was preferred as an ideal coolant for quite a period of time but the problem started to arise when the temperature would become extremely high or low, to be precise temperature more than 100 ° C and below 0°C. To get rid of this problem, coolants were formulated. Coolants are categorized chemicals that increases the boiling point of the fluid and decreases the freezing point of the fluid to make it suitable for use in extreme heat and freezing conditions. Coolants are a proportionate mixture of antifreeze and solvent, mainly glycol and water. Ideally utilized as a preventive in

Antiscalant Chemical for RO Plant

  Reverse Osmosis System is a revolutionary invention to treat water and provide an effective solution for purifying water in various applications. The performance of RO can be ensured by the formation of scale and deposits on the membranes, leading to reduced efficiency and increased operational costs.   To prevent this issue, antiscalant chemicals play an important role in reducing the formation of scale and maintaining optimal RO Plant performance. Reverse Osmosis is widely used in various industries to treat water and to remove impurities such as salts, minerals, and other contaminants. The dense, thin, and semi-permeable layer allows water molecules to pass through while rejecting dissolved solids, and other impurities such as salts, minerals, and other contaminants. But the major issue that surfaces in such systems is the formation of scales due to the build-up of dissolved minerals and salts on the surface of the RO Membrane.
