Electroplating & Chemical Industry Water Equipment

Rinse water purification, heavy-metal removal and closed-loop recycling for plating and chemical plants.

Capacity
1 – 200 T/H
Outlet Quality
Heavy metals to GB 21900 discharge limits, rinse water reuse ≥ 70 %

Electroplating and chemical process water contains heavy metal ions, complexing agents, acids, alkalis, cyanide and high salinity. Our systems separate the streams by character and treat each with the appropriate chemistry and membrane technology.

A typical plant combines chemical breaking / reduction / precipitation for the concentrated stream with ion exchange and RO on the dilute rinse stream, so that most rinse water is recovered and returned to the plating line while metals are concentrated for recovery.

This both meets discharge regulations and cuts fresh water intake, giving a fast payback on water and metal savings.

Key Features

Why This System Performs

Segregated stream treatment

Cyanide, chromium, acid-alkali and nickel streams are handled separately for correct and safe chemistry.

Metal recovery

Ion exchange and RO concentration allow valuable nickel, copper and chromium to be recovered instead of dumped.

Closed-loop rinsing

70 %+ of rinse water is purified and returned to the line, sharply reducing fresh water intake.

Corrosion-proof build

PP / PVC / PVDF and FRP construction throughout for aggressive acidic and alkaline services.
