Leachate treatment for residual-waste landfill

In the greater Kuala Lumpur area, Malaysia’s largest waste management company, Kualiti Alam Sdn. Bhd, operates a landfill for the disposal of residual materials from several waste management companies. Due to the wide range and high degree of contamination of the residues and concentrates, also from the industry, the leachate of this landfill is very complex and difficult to treat.

Treatment of liquid manure and digestate

With the change of the fertilizer regulation, the spreading and use of agricultural fertilizers is further limited. Farmers and biogas plant operators are often left with only costly temporary storage and expensive external disposal since the processes currently available on the market do not meet the requirements and involve high operating costs.

Pioneering intelligent technologies for wastewater treatment

Environmentalists have been crying hoarse for long over the potential risks of pharmaceutical pollution. With water playing an integral part in the pharmaceutical manufacturing lifecycle, active pharmaceutical ingredients in wastewater, when discharged to the environment, may lead to the creation of multi-resistant germs in rivers and lakes. Treating pharmaceutical wastewater proves to be a challenge, and pharma producers are under the radar to contribute to improved water stewardship and take concrete measures to eliminate contaminants from their production wastewater. Against this backdrop, the German-based WEHRLE-WERK, with profound expertise in treating complex wastewater from the production of pharmaceutical drugs, can help pharmaceutical companies achieve this reliably and cost-effectively.

Conversion of an SBR into an MBR

In some cases, the installed SBR process does not suffice to achieve the required treatment objectives. There is a variety of possible reasons: changes in the characteristics of the actual wastewater compared to the ones considered in the design (concentrations, flow rate), modification of the discharge requirements, incorrect process design, etc.
