Chemical Industry Wastewater
Plate Settlers for Chemical Manufacturing Effluent
Corrosion-resistant plate settler systems in SS 316L for the treatment of chemical industry wastewater, including precipitation, neutralization, and clarification.
Chemical Industry Wastewater
Chemical manufacturing generates complex wastewater streams containing dissolved and suspended contaminants, acids, bases, salts, and reaction byproducts. Treatment typically involves chemical precipitation, neutralization, and clarification.
Plate settlers are effective in chemical wastewater treatment because they efficiently separate chemically precipitated solids from treated water. The stainless steel 316L construction of R+F systems provides excellent resistance to the corrosive environments common in chemical plants.
Applications include pharmaceutical wastewater, petrochemical effluent, specialty chemical process water, and general chemical manufacturing discharge.
