Process Equipment Cleaning
Integrated Engineers provided treatability services for a company that chemically cleans process equipment. They had 7 waste streams from the process onsite. The samples each contained various contaminants of alkaline solutions such as phosphates, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate with trace amounts of grease, metals, nitrates, citrates, and ammonium. The treatment was conducted using Floccin™ 1106 and Floccin™ HP.
Wastewater Sample #1
This sample’s pH was at 10.6 and contained ammonium bi-carbonate, ammonium hydroxide, and sodium bromate and had a dark blue tint before treatment, 100 mL was treated with 5 grams of 1106 and flocked very well leaving the water clear. The jar test with Floccin™ 1106 showed good encapsulation of the solids in the water and the pH was at 7.
