Nalco Water understands that effective primary waste water treatment is critical to your plant operations, whether you are discharging directly to a municipal wastewater treatment system or treating prior to your own biological wastewater treatment system. Optimizing the performance of treatment chemicals and equipment can dramatically minimise overall costs and maximise your return on investment, and we can provide creative solutions to help meet your most stringent water quality requirements.

The aeration basin is the heart of your biological treatment system, and maintaining aeration basin health is critical to meeting plant discharge limits and optimizing sludge dewatering operations.

Solids dewatering is the second-highest cost area in a wastewater treatment plant, second only to electrical utility costs. Effectively optimizing the performance of dewatering equipment and chemicals can dramatically minimise the total cost of operation and maximise your return on investment. In addition, as processors endeavor to meet stringent regulatory requirements, solids handling and disposal continues to be one of the most important areas requiring creative, sustainable-technology solutions.
