Water contributes to almost every part of the manufacturing process in the chemical and fertilizer manufacturing industry. The chemical and fertilizer manufacturing industry has recorded the maximum water consumption trend amongst other manufacturing sectors, and treatment of wastewater generated has the highest complexity and criticality. Wastewaters from the chemical fertilizer industry mainly contain organics, alcohols, ammonia, nitrates, phosphorous, heavy metals such as cadmium and suspended solids.
With the increasing scarcity of fresh water, several manufacturing facilities in the segment face closure due to its non-availability. Chemical and fertilizer manufacturers are also facing closure due to non-compliance with increasingly stricter regulations on discharged water.
Solutions for the chemical and fertilizer industry include:
Integrated total water and waste water treatment solution
Zero Liquid Discharge solutions
Condensate polishing units for efficient water usage
Boiler feed water treatment
Cooling tower water make-up
O&M of total water and wastewater treatment plants
Retrofitting of existing water treatment facilities with technology upgradation
