PROBLEM STATEMENT
- The seasonal fluctuation, high chemical oxygen demands, degrees Brix, filter media and alternating pH all have a critical impact on the effective treatment on the effluent emanating from the fishery industry.
- The confined area of a fishery industry makes it critical that the effluent be treated effectively and completely removed. The effluent has to be treated and contained before being discharged into natural streams or being recycled for re-use.
- International quality control, environmental legislation and pressure to re-use water are contributing factors.
CHALLENGE
- The combination of sterilization chemicals, the coagulation of blood, fats, stomach content and other body parts that enter the effluent stream
pose too great a challenge to implement a single treatment solution. - High discharge penalties were incurred.
- Effluent volumes resulted in unpleasant odours and water discolouration.
- CIP wash model also contributed to the quality of water and contamination thereof.
ECOSAT SOLUTION
- Our experience in this industry over the past 36 years has given EcoSat privileged knowledge on the imminent water qualities and solution technologies.
- A careful selection of coarse separation equipment, Electrochemical Coagulation (EC) and also a Biological Catalytic Remediation (BCR) has proven that fishery effluent can successfully be recycled once sterilized.
- EcoSat employed a unique effluent treatment capability to allow for permanent or static installations on a rental or full ownership principle supported by a complete treatment capability. This allows EcoSat to
effectively deal with the challenges raised above. - EcoSat employs chemical, mechanical, and civil engineers as well as other qualified staff in designing our solution, allowing the winemaker to focus on what he is best at.
The treatment combination reduces the effluent discharge quality and provides the ability to recycle the treated effluent.
