Save thousands in discharge and treatment costs!The
Clean Water Plant (CWP) is the first
bio-hygienic system for water that is compact, portable, and works in real time. A
CWP system is faster and more effective than conventional technologies, saving companies thousands in consumption and treatment costs everyday.
The CWP is a bio-hygienic system for contaminated water streams, including industrial process water, wastewater, and contaminated groundwater. Using the same technology as the Clean Air Plant, CWP units employ an advanced biofiltration technology that has miniaturized the process of biological oxidation, making it faster, safer and less expensive than conventional technologies.
CWPs are stand-alone units that can be incorporated into an existing plant or process to allow facility operators to reduce water consumption by treating or even reusing their process water. Treatment, transportation and disposal (TTD) costs of industrial wastewater are significantly reduced when treated in a CWP system.
In ground water applications CWPs are proven effective in the clean-up of contamination associated with leaking underground storage tanks and fuel spills. CWPs remove fuel additives such as MTBE, BTEX and other chemicals. Their use in spill remediation is far superior to carbon filtration. CWPs can eliminate the need for costly vacuum equipment, associated transportation, and disposal.
Industrial Water Emissions/Odor Control
Municipal and industrial water treatment facilities have federal and state mandated guidelines for the wastewater received from industrial customers. Conventional water treatment equipment used to pre-treat water for acceptance by these authorities is expensive, and costly to maintain.
A Clean Water Plant provides a single system that makes water treatment a simple, low cost alternative to chemical additives or activated carbon. Many times, water treated by the CWP can even be reused, eliminating the entire municipal discharge component of the process.
Heavily Contaminated Water Emissions
Upon conventional treatment in industrial processes such as plating and specialty chemical manufacturing, water may still not be acceptable for disposal at a municipal water treatment facility.
CWPs employed in these highly contaminated applications have proven effective in reducing contamination to levels now acceptable to treatment facilities. These results have considerable cost savings in transportation and regulatory compliance.
Remediation/MTBE
Methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE), BTX and other hydrocarbons are found in both soil and water. CWPs have been used in conjunction with SVE systems to destroy MTBE, BTX and other hydrocarbons. CWP can eliminate or reduce the recurring costs associated with carbon replacement and the high-energy costs associated with catalytic oxidation.
Alternative to Carbon
CWPs incorporate an innovative spiral-wound element offering an ideal environment for absolute coverage of the bio-enzyme, thus eliminating any opportunity for channeling to occur. CWPs treat contaminants that carbon cannot, like polar compounds and formaldehyde. Carbon quickly becomes saturated and must be replaced often. CWPs save on carbon replacement costs and may even be used in conjunction with carbon when a final polishing stage is required.
