Disinfectants

Disinfectant products used in industrial wastewater treatment plants are designed to eliminate or inactivate pathogenic microorganisms in the treated water.

Coagulants

Coagulants are chemicals used in industrial wastewater treatment to promote coagulation and floc formation. These flocs help remove suspended particles and other impurities from the water, facilitating the subsequent sedimentation and filtration phase.

Polyelectrolytes

Polyelectrolytes are ionic polymers that contain electrical charges. These compounds are used in industrial wastewater treatment to perform various functions, including coagulation, flocculation and particle sedimentation.

Polyelectrolytes are long-chain polymers that contain ionic functional groups, such as positive charges (cations) or negative charges (anions).

They can be classified into cationic polyelectrolytes (containing positive charges), anionic polyelectrolytes (containing negative charges) and non-ionic polyelectrolytes (without charges).

Polyelectrolytes can reduce the surface tension of water, improving the wettability of particles and facilitating their coagulation and flocculation.

Bacterial mixtures

Bacterial mixtures in industrial wastewater treatment refer to the use of selected bacterial cultures or consortia of bacteria to perform specific biological functions in the purification process. These bacterial mixtures are essential in biological treatment processes and can be used in various contexts to remove organic pollutants from wastewater.

Defoamers

Defoamers are also water chemicals. They are designed to reduce or prevent the formation of foam in industrial wastewater during treatment processes. Foaming can be undesirable as it can compromise treatment efficiency and operations.

Active Carbon

Activated carbon is a porous material made from carbonaceous raw materials such as coal, wood or coconut shells. In the context of industrial wastewater treatment, activated carbon is often used as an adsorbent to remove organic contaminants, chemical compounds and dyes in water.

Legionella line

Other water purification chemicals are defoamers, designed to reduce or prevent foam formation in industrial wastewater during treatment processes. Foaming can be undesirable as it can compromise treatment efficiency and operations.
