Wastewater Treatment Plants
Typical Municipal Wastewater that enters a treatment plant can be very complex, in many cases containing high levels of hydrogen sulfide (H2S), various levels of organic loads (BOD) and, depending on some locations, may contain elevated levels of Fats, Oil & Grease (FOG). Various treatment options are available for Screen and Grit removal as well as Primary and Secondary Clarification. Zi-Biox® pretreatment systems can also be customized to meet the clients’ needs. Additionally, odors are typically problematic and require some form of treatment. Terminodour™ has a proven track record of efficient environmentally friendly odor reduction in the wastewater industry.
