Aquaculture

Fish farming and aquaculture relies on clean, well oxygenated water to ensure that the fish are healthy and reach optimal size and weight.

Solutions we provide:

  • Water intake screens that prevent debris, fish, or fish eggs being pulled from the source water.
  • On-site O2 generators. Produce oxygen for each enclosure straight from the air, rather than having liquid oxygen delivered.
  • Screening and filtration systems to remove solids from recirculation systems.
  • Dewatering of removed solids.
  • Discharge water treatment to ensure that anything you release back into the local environment is clean and safe.
  • Ultrasonic algae treatment that is chemical free and safe for your fish.
  • The “Avatar” unit. This allows for on-site generate of an Aqueous Ozone solution, which is a great cleaner and disinfectant and safely reverts back to water after use.

Chemical

Filtration is essential in chemical manufacturing to ensure product quality, process efficiency, and equipment integrity.

Chemical reactions often require precise and controlled conditions to take place. Impurities such as minerals, organic matter, and microbes can interfere with the chemical reaction, leading to product impurities, decreased yield, or even complete failure of the reaction.

Water is a common solvent in chemical manufacturing, and it is used for various purposes such as dissolving, diluting, and washing chemicals. If the water used in these processes is contaminated, it can affect the purity of the final product.

Filtration is also important in the final packaging to remove any possible residues or solids from the final product.

Mining and Aggregates

Water plays a crucial role in mining operations, as it is needed for a wide range of processes, including mineral processing, the extraction of minerals from ores and dust suppression. However, the use of water in mining can also have negative impacts on the environment. To address these issues, many mining companies implement water management strategies that focus on reducing water consumption, recycling and reusing water where possible (within the process and filtering tailings), and treating discharge wastewater to minimize its impact on the environment.

Solutions we offer:
  • Fresh water and process water recycled within the plant contains particles that need to be removed to prevent wear on pump seals, blocked nozzles, and many other applications.
  • To reduce shipping costs the Concentrate produced by the mine must be dewatered to the greatest feasible extent prior to shipping to the smelter. Filter Presses produce a dewatered cake with the lowest possible moisture content.
  • Traditional tailings ponds can pose a significant risk to the environment. As a result, many mining companies are exploring alternative methods for managing tailings, such as dry stacking, which offers several benefits over traditional tailings storage methods. The tailings slurry is dewatered to 80-85% solids using a filter press, the recovered water is recycled back to the plant, and the cake placed in a constructed dry-stack.
  • In some areas where there is very little rainfall (e.g. desert regions of Chile), it may be necessary to desalinate seawater to produce a water supply.
  • Mine processing plants are like a giant chemistry set, where chemicals, reagents and polymers are fed into various processes – these need to be properly mixed and dosed into the process.
  • On-site oxygen generators provide a lower cost, constant source ofoxygen without bringing in tankers of Liquid Oxygen.
  • Prevent Algae growing in ponds or water storage tanks using Ultrasonic Algae treatment
  • Discharge water usually contains pollutants, (chemicals and dissolved metals), these need to be treated prior to discharge.

Municipal

Municipal

Clean city water and effective wastewater treatment are essential for the health and well-being of every community. Access to clean water is critical for drinking, cooking, and hygiene. Contaminated water can cause a range of illnesses and diseases, particularly in vulnerable populations such as children and the elderly.

Effective wastewater treatment is also critical to prevent the spread of diseases and protect the environment from contamination. Untreated wastewater can contain harmful pathogens, chemicals, and pollutants, which can have long-term impacts on public health and the natural environment.

Therefore, it is important for communities to prioritize the development and maintenance of clean water and effective wastewater treatment systems.

Solutions we offer:
  • Headworks screens protect the wastewater treatment plant from any oversized materials or debris that may cause damage to equipment within the treatment process.
  • As wastewater treatment is an organic process it is imperative that the microbes have well oxygenated environment to help them thrive. Oxygen can be generated on-site by stripping the Oxygen from the environment, without the need to bring in Liquid Oxygen.
  • Emulsion or Dry Polymers are used to bind the fine particles and allow the water to release – these polymers must be properly hydrated and activated before they can be used.
  • Thickened sludge material can be dewatered into a cake to be transported off site and disposed of in accordance with local regulations.
  • Fine Screens and filters can be used to capture any residual solids that are carried over from the treatment process.
  • Tertiary treatment of the discharged water will remove any trace chemicals or bacteria in the water before it is released into the environment.
  • Prevent Algae growing in ponds or water storage tanks using Ultrasonic Algae treatment

Pulp & Paper

Clean water and effective wastewater treatment are critical for the pulp and paper industry, which is one of the largest water users and wastewater producers in the manufacturing sector. The production of paper involves multiple stages, such as pulping, bleaching, and finishing, which require large quantities of water and produce significant amounts of wastewater.

Solutions we offer:
  • As the water source is often surface water from a lake or river, it is paramount that the water is screened to prevent biologicals, particulate, fish, fish-eggs, and other debris from being pulled into the water system.
  • Self-cleaning filters and strainers ensure that process and seal water is kept clean and free of fine contaminants.
  • The Chlorine Dioxide production system is particularly sensitive to organics and debris, which need to be filtered out of water and chemicals to prevent explosions within the reactor.
  • Digesters work best when fed with Wood Chips of a uniform size, so large multi-deck woodyard screens are designed to remove rocks, pins and fines before the chips are sent to the Chip Silo.
  • After the chip has been chemically digested and the chip has been broken down into individual fibres, it is important to screen the fibre stock to ensure that only fibres of the correct length are accepted, and any uncooked wood fibres (shives) are rejected and sent back for reprocessing.
  • When the fibres are sent to the machine, polymers, starches and other additives are added to the stock to create the desired properties of the finished sheet. These additives must be filtered to ensure that there areno globs of incorrectly mixed material sent onto the paper sheet, as this would produce an off-spec end product.
  • Pulp and Paper mills have multiple wet and dry chemical make-down and feed systems, where accuracy and repeatability is paramount.
  • Sludges can be dewatered to reduce the volume of water in the material prior to being burned in the power boiler.
  • On-site oxygen generators provide a lower cost, constant source ofoxygen without bringing in tankers of Liquid Oxygen.
  • Algae growing in ponds or water storage tanks can cause odour issues or be be pulled into process water where it can cause process upsets, or a poor quality final product.
  • The chemicals used in pulp mills often smell unpleasant, or are corrosive. Adsorptive media can be used to oxidize corrosive gasses, and remove smells.
  • Proper filtration and treatment of Cooling Tower water increases the overall efficiency of the system, reduces the amount of biocide required, and removes the bacteria that cause Legionnaires Disease.
