Wastewater Treatment
The effective management of wastewater generated by rapidly growing cities has become a serious issue affecting the health and productivity of burgeoning population. WABAG promotes sustainability with wastewater treatment solutions that ensure environmentally friendly discharge or reuse of treated wastewater. In addition, WABAG promotes a comprehensive wastewater treatment model that focuses on resource recovery through a combination of innovative technologies.
WABAG provides a range of optimal solutions extending from highly effective pre-treatment (MICROPUR ®) to complete nutrient-removal. The key technologies employed include single and dual-stage (Hybrid™) activated sludge processes, granular activated sludge process using Nereda ® technology, SBR (CYCLOPUR ®) membrane bioreactor technology (MARAPUR ®), biofiltration (BIOPUR ®) and moving bed biological reactor and IFAS (FLUOPUR ®).
Our global references ensure treatment of around 30 million m3 of wastewater every day, thus protecting the people and the environment.
Plants like Adana West & East in Turkey, treating 250,000 m3 & 210,000 m3 of influent every day, and Kodungaiyur in Chennai (110,000 m3/d) or Kondli in Delhi (204,500 m3/d), are some of the marquee references in our wastewater treatment portfolio.
Furthermore, WABAG has been involved in the R&D aimed at elimination of micro-pollutants for more than a decade. As a result, WABAG is one of the few companies able to offer all the relevant technologies such as ozonation (BIOZONE®) and activated carbon adsorption (CARBOPUR®, PACOUR®), as well as their combination. Meanwhile WABAG has emerged as a pioneer in this special field and market leader in Switzerland. Till date, WABAG has successfully commissioned 7 WWTPs with a cumulative capacity of 150,000 m3/d and has 11 WWTPs under construction, aimed at removal of micro-pollutants.
