Wastewater treatment and sewage treatment are important to us both personally and environmentally. Wastewater treatment plants are using complex processes that involve the use of various chemicals to treat used water in order to eliminate pollutants, contaminants, and other organic compounds from the water and safely reintroduce it into the environment.
Water treatment plants employ a variety of processes, including biological and chemical processing, which necessitate the use of various chemicals to disinfect the water and balance the pH level.
Chemicals used in Pre-Treatment & Waste water Treatment
• pH neutralization of water
To control better, the pH level of the wastewater, basic chemicals such as alkalis and other acidic acids can be added to the water.
• Use of chemical precipitation to remove heavy metals
Chemical precipitation is a method of removing heavy metals from wastewater. To avoid contamination, add the precipitation reagent to the water. To form solid particles, heavy metals are ionically bonded with the reagent. Filtration is then used to eliminate these solid particles from the water.
• Chemical coagulants
Chemical coagulants are chemicals based on aluminium or iron that aid in the removal of pathogens, fluoride, organic compounds, and other pollutants. They work to destabilise wastewater particles by presenting a positively charged coagulant that reduces the particles' negative charge. Waste particles aggregate to form larger bodies that can be purified out.
• Flocculation of waste water/sewage
Through charge bridging and magnetic neutralisation, flocculants aid in the removal of very fine particles from wastewater treatment plants. Waste particles are encouraged to form clumps or flocs that can settle out during the sedimentation process by the addition of flocculants.
• Removal of odour
Certain toxic contaminants frequently cause the water to smell bad. To keep the water scented fresh, effective wastewater treatment methods include the use of iron salts, biofiltration, oxidants, and other technologies.
• Cleaning and de-greasing chemicals
Water in a wastewater treatment plant includes oil and grease residue that must be processed before being released back into the environment. Solvent chemicals can aid in the breakdown of grease, making it easier to eliminate.
• Chemical oxidation process
Chemical oxidation is a process used in wastewater engineering to convert pollutants into less harmful compounds. This contributes to the purification of surface waters.To reduce the impact of hydrogen peroxide, chlorine antibiotics, and other compounds in the water, reducing agents such as sodium bisulphite, sodium hydrosulphite, and other chemicals are used.
• Use of de-foamer and anti-foamer for waste water
A defoaming agent is a chemical preservative that aids in the reduction of trapped air and foam produced during the wastewater treatment process. Defoaming agents dissolve existing foam, while antifoaming agents prevent new foam from forming. The most common application of silicone is as a defoaming agent.
