As sewer overflows caused by flooding become more common, finding a way to disinfect the resulting deluge of potentially hazardous wastewater quickly, effectively and without damaging water bodies is vital. Chemical disinfection with performic acid is showing huge promise as a solution to this challenge.

In preparation for the Paris Olympic and Paralympic swimming events in the river La Seine this summer, the Greater Paris Sanitation Authority trusted Kemira with it´s performic acid solution, KemConnect™ DEX, for their project of disinfecting treated wastewater before discharging.

The answer is yes. Water-intensive industries can now transform their sustainability performance, with one simple switch: from fossil-based polymers to renewable biomass-balanced chemistries from Kemira.

Join our on-demand webinar to explore phosphorus removal, understand the regulatory landscape, and learn from real customer cases at wastewater treatment plants. Discover how they minimize chemical consumption while meeting strict discharge limits.

Every day our global logistics team crunches the numbers to figure out the best way to get our chemistry to customers with as little carbon footprint as possible. Learn more about our climate targets and how we’re decarbonizing our logistics.

The Lotsbroverket wastewater treatment plant in Mariehamn has seen excellent results after implementing Kemira´s KemConnect™ PT digital service. This data-driven solution for primary wastewater treatment has reduced the energy consumption and cut ferric sulfate consumption at the plant.
