“Treatability” is actually a noun that describes the ability of something “to treat” something. Makes sense when you look at the word broken down “treat+ability”.
Still in all, we mostly use it as an adjective, like “treatable”, to mean “able to be treated”.
The killer Floccin™ line of flocculating agents has fantastic treat ability. Water samples may be very treatable or may be not so treatable, usually with our flocculating agents problem water is rendered highly treatable.
This particular fish processor sample proved to be easily treated.
Fish Processor Case Study
Fish Processor Wastewater Treatability? VERY TREATABLE
The wastewater was received from a fish processing plant that utilizes water to float fish.
Jar testing revealed that Floccin™ 1106 as the most effective product for treating the wastewater. A 1,000 ml beaker filled with the water sample was used to conduct the treatability. 2 grams of Floccin™ 1106 were mixed in 1,000 ml of wastewater which equates to 16.7 lbs/1000 gallons.
The results are pictured below.

The facility would like to reuse the water which will require post hydrocarbon removal and ozonation subsequent to Floccin treatment.
