Chemical Wastewater Treatment Systems
Chemical Wastewater Treatment Systems
Chemical Treatment
These are purification processes applied to ensure the precipitation of substances dissolved or suspended in water by changing their physical state. In the chemical treatment process, as a result of adding chemical substances (coagulant, polyelectrolyte, etc.) to the wastewater at the appropriate pH value, the substances to be precipitated are precipitated and separated from the water as sludge.
With the chemical treatment process, parameters such as suspended solids, COD, BOD, heavy metals and phosphorus are removed.
Chemical treatment systems can be built with steel construction and reinforced concrete.
Chemical Treatment Processes
Chemical treatment applications; neutralization, flocculation and coagulation.
Neutralization
It is the process of adding acid or base to adjust the appropriate pH value of acidic and basic wastewater.
Coagulation
It is the process of adding coagulant substances to the wastewater at the appropriate pH, making the wastewater ready to form flocs by combining with the colloidal and suspended solids in its structure.
Flocculation
Flocculation is the process of mixing the wastewater at the appropriate speed, resulting in the small particles formed by the coagulation process combining with each other and forming flocs that can easily collapse.
