Sewage contains residuals and contaminants, an unsavory thought for anything food related. However, it also contains something incredibly valuable: phosphorus.
All the water that Kemira is helping to clean can either be recycled and reused by customers in their processes or returned safely back into the environment. This does not only help save water, but also makes more safe and clean water available.
While the COVID-19 pandemic is still keeping some beachgoers away from the water, that is far from the only concern. Unsightly algae bloom also prevent people from enjoying our lakes, rivers, seas and oceans year after year.
Our customers in Québec trust in the Kemira high-concentration, high-basicity, aluminum-based chemistry. As a result, water treatment processes are simplified and overall costs are lowered.
In this article we take a closer look at the historical developments that have brought us today’s advanced wastewater treatment processes before digging deep underground to discover how they’ll be put to work in the colossal new treatment facility currently under construction in Tampere, Finland.
Looking to understand the environmental efficiency of different wastewater treatment plant setups? Watch our webinar to learn how pre-precipitation, simultaneous precipitation, and biological phosphorus removal perform in terms of CO2 footprint, energy balance, and effluent limits.
One key item our customers have highlighted in their feedback and complimented our performance on, is the steady and reliable supply of water treatment chemicals we have available. Our extensive network of manufacturing sites is built with this customer need in mind.
Nicodemus Mautsa and his team leave no stone unturned when seeking exactly the right solutions for mining customers across the diverse and mineral-rich continent of Africa. Kemira’s chemical solutions help customers to improve their process efficiency and enable huge savings.
Stormwater flows can present big challenges for wastewater treatment plants, with huge water volumes needing to be processed in a very short space of time. Chemically Enhanced Primary Treatment solutions help operators to tackle acute stormwater flows efficiently and cost-effectively without any major investments.
To help water treatment plant operators do their job, even in turbulent times, is of crucial importance. This also means that sufficient treatment chemistries, logistics and labor must be available.
