Ferro Aquatek, has extensive experience in wastewater treatment, recycle and zero liquid discharge in the textile industry and offers a reliable integrated solution to meet the industry’s needs. Our unique systems generate significant savings through the recycle of water and reduction of fresh water requirements, lower energy and chemical consumption and recovery of valuable by products.

Ferro Aquatek, is actively developing a variety of solutions around new wastewater treatment technologies such as membrane filtration systems, automatic variable filtration (AVF), advanced oxidation processes (AOP) and UV irradiation to meet anticipated treatment requirements.

The textile industry is the oldest, most diverse sector in the manufacturing world. It is dependent on water in all steps of manufacturing–de-sizing, bleaching, dyeing, neutralizing, scouring, mercerizing, printing and finishing. The industry consumes 80 billion cubic meters of water per year.

A larger problem however, is the resulting water pollution caused by dyes, specialty chemicals, and finishing chemicals that are applied to fabrics in water baths. Stringent regulations today require that textile producers to approach zero liquid discharge (ZLD).

Our current solutions include :

  • Pre-treatment and process water treatment

  • Cooling and boiler water treatment programmes

  • Waste water treatment and recycle of process, dye bath and rinsing water for zero liquid discharge

  • Evaporation reject management

  • Comprehensive O&M services for all water systems

  • BOT for upgradation /retrofitting of plants
