Case studies and references in water treatment and water reuse

Wastewater treatment, whether at the municipal (civil sewage treatment plants) or industrial level, is of paramount importance to preserve human health and protect the environment. In fact, in both areas, wastewater contains organic substances and nutrients: if released into waterways without proper treatment, it can cause water pollution and extensive damage to flora and fauna. On the other hand, it is not just a matter of environmental regulations: proper treatment allows water to be reused in production processes-the optimal choice for both the environment and for cutting utility bills.

Why turn to a specialized company like MITA Water Technologies for wastewater treatment, as environmental consultants and companies already do?

  • Wide range of treatment solutions: from primary to suitable tertiary treatments for both municipal wastewater and process water.
  • One-to-one approach: ongoing support, especially with engineers from technical firms and consultants from companies, to select the appropriate technology following extensive testing.
  • Extensive experience and international references: last 50 years of achievements and case studies in Europe and around the world, in the most diverse sectors.
