The processes will maximise the reuse of water by turning waste to value and minimising energy consumption and waste.
By 2025 it is expected that two billion people will be without access to fresh water, therefore wastewater is a resource that many companies are planning to explore. Alfa Laval offers treatment methods which meet legislation and make water reuse happen.
All-in-one Membrane Filtration Modules for membrane bioreactors (MBR) are designed by Alfa Laval to perform both secondary and tertiary treatment, delivering clean effluent ready to send back to nature or for reuse.
The system is sold for numerous industry, a speciality chemicals producer aims to save 40% on fresh water consumption by reusing their treated wastewater for domestic purpose and cooling towers.
Alfa Laval AS-H Iso-Disc Cloth Media Filters are used for tertiary filtration produce a very high quality effluent that can meet legislation on discharge criteria and is suitable for immediate water reuse as it is California Title 22 Certified for Water Reuse Standards
It also removes organic and inorganic pollutants in all industries that require water filtration technology, for treatment of surface water for cooling towers or process water supply, cooling tower side-stream treatment, pre-treatment to produce high purity water.
Alfa Laval’s recently launched WideGap 100 as well as the AlfaVap heat exchangers are ideal for concentration of effluent, waste reduction and product recovery plus water reuse in many industries.
The company can help convert cost to profit and offer various solutions to recover water and other products of value that can be recycled or sold.
Recovery of oily waste streams like e.g. slop oil that can be converted into a high value hydrocarbon using decanters and high-speed separators
Wastewater from oil and gas extraction can with use of Alfa Laval evaporation systems be recovered with up to 80% for reuse in the production.
IFAT 2016 will take place from 30 May until 3 June in Germany, Alfa Laval will be displaying its treatments at stand A1.251 and 01A.11.
