Biological Wastewater Treatments

Biological treatment of civil and industrial wastewater

Biological treatments can be used to treat both civil and industrial wastewater. However, the characteristics of industrial wastewater can be very different from those of civil wastewater.

It is useful to remember that while a civil wastewater treatment plant involves a design approach with relatively standard methods that always include biological treatment, industrial wastewater is a different case: each industry has its own requirements, which may or may not require biological interventions.

Even more than in the case of municipal water, it is therefore useful for industrial water to conduct analyses with pilot units.

Biological treatments offered by MITA Water Technologies

MITA Water Technologies offers some of its most efficient, and easy-to-manage, solutions for biological wastewater treatment.

• Biorulli® biodisc biological oxidation systems: this equipment uses plastic discs to degrade organic matter in a simple, low-energy-cost approach. They are suitable for a wide range of applications (such as treatment of effluent from small communities) and properly handle load variations (e.g., tourist seasons, etc.).
• Biocombi compact plants: combine biological treatment with advanced sludge separation, such as cloth filtration. They are therefore ideal as a compact solution for small communities, particularly in settings where space is a limiting factor.
