Manufacturing Wastewater Treatment Case Studies

Metal Polishing Wastewater Treatment Test

Integrated Engineers, Inc. conducted a treatability test for a facility that polishes stainless steel.

We were asked to assist them in meeting their local discharge requirements as the flocculent they had been using was not working sufficiently.

The initial pH of the wastewater upon arrival was 7.0. 3.0 grams of Floccin™ G was used per 1000 ml jar of wastewater. After mixing for 10 minutes, the floc formed was superior with excellent water clarity. Below, analytical results show that Floccin™ G brought Lead, Copper and Zinc levels down well below discharge requirements vs. prior treatment method.

Treating Metal Polishing Wastewater Sample with Floccin™ G Metal Before and After Treatment with Flocculating Agent

Metals Old Method Treated w/Floccin G Local Requirements
Copper 160 ug/L No Detect 27.7 ug/L
Lead 11.4 ug/L No Detect 3.79 ug/L
Zinc 33 ug/L 99 ug/L 115 ug/L
