Research Laboratory Wastewater Treatment

Enclosed automatic cabinets treating acid, alkali, heavy metal and organic laboratory effluent.

Challenge

Project Requirements

Laboratory drains discharged mixed acidic, alkaline, heavy-metal and organic waste directly to the sewer, creating both a corrosion and a compliance problem.

Engineered Solution

  • Collection tanks segregating incompatible waste streams
  • Automatic pH neutralisation with dosing control
  • Redox reaction and heavy metal chelation and precipitation
  • Filtration, activated carbon adsorption and photocatalytic oxidation

Results

Outcome On Site

Discharge pH held between 6 and 9 automatically
Heavy metals brought within sewer discharge limits
Batch treatment records available for inspection
