Title: 5 Major Benefits of Industrial Wastewater Treatment
15 Major Benefits of Industrial Wastewater
Treatment
2The waste that is discharged travels down to
rivers and seas. As it can be seen, inappropriate
treatment proves to be severely harmful for our
and environmental health. The industrial water
treatment not only provides clean drinkable
water, but also has some other great benefits to
offer. It has the potential to enhance a
countrys energy production from methane
harvesting, reduce waste production, and produce
natural fertilizers from the collected wastes.
Lets explore these individual benefits in more
details.
Reduction in waste In the wastewater treatment
process, the amount of waste that is normally
dumped in the environment is reduced. By doing
so, the industries play a wide role in reducing
the health risks linked with environmental
pollution, and reducing the water loss occurring
through water pollution.
3Money saving A well-operated industrial
wastewater treatment system reduces the money
spent by a country on long-term environmental
rehabilitation projects. It also ensures your
compliance with countrys legislation and
regulations.
4Energy production The sludge accumulated during
the treatment process is further processed as it
contains a large concentration of biodegradable
materials. This sludge is treated with anaerobic
bacteria in special completely enclosed digesters
which are heated to about 35 degrees Celsius. It
is an area where these microorganisms are able to
thrive and grow without the presence of oxygen.
The gas produced concluding this process contains
a significant amount of methane, which is later
harvested and burned to create electricity. The
cycle can be continued by using the energy
produced to power the water treatment plants
making them self-operational. In case the
electricity is produced in huge amount, then it
can also be transported into a countrys national
grid line. This approach benefits in less
reliance on non-renewable energy sources such as
fossil fuels, which eventually reduces a
countrys carbon usage and the expenditure spent
on energy production.
5Fertilizer production Any remaining biodegradable
materials are dried in drying lagoons and are
then converted into natural fertilizers. These
freshly made fertilizers are mostly used in
agricultural sector, increasing crop outputs.
This benefits in decreasing the use of chemical
fertilizers that pollute the environments
ecosystems and marine life.
Provides clean and processed water The idea may
not seem instantly understandable, but wastewater
can be turned into safe water. The treatment
process removes any impurities and toxicity from
the water making it clean and drinkable.
Naturally, it takes quite a time for water to
evaporate in air and rain to filter out the
toxins, whereas, the wastewater treatment speeds
up the process.
