Environmentally Sensitive Industrial Wastewater
Treatment Solutions With the introduction of
increasingly stringent environmental standards
the optimisation of treatment processes for
industrial wastewater and effluents is becoming
increasingly important. Its now not simply about
meeting discharge compliance standards cost,
process and energy efficiencies are becoming key
considerations along with opportunities for more
eco-friendly water recycling and reuse
solutions. Water Treatment Services, through our
team of experts offer a holistic approach to the
evaluation and treatment of industrial effluents
allowing us to assist our customers in meeting
their legal obligations in the most economic,
environmentally sensitive way to reduce costs,
improve waste management processes and protect
the environment.
What is Trade Effluent? In the UK any wastewater
that is produced as part of an industrial or
commercial process is referred to as trade
effluent. Trade effluent is typically waste
water or other waste liquids that are not
considered to be domestic sewage or
uncontaminated rainwater run-off. This can
include waste water from manufacturing and
production activities, cooling processes, washing
etc.

The Water Industry Act 1991 describes trade
effluent as follows any liquid, either with
or without particles of matter in suspension in
the liquid, which is wholly or partly produced in
the course of any trade or industry carried on at
a trade premises. If your water is not
considered to be domestic sewage or
uncontaminated rainwater run-off then you need to
deal with it differently.
Consent to Discharge Trade Effluent If you
intend to discharge any industrial wastewater or
trade effluent in to a public sewer or
watercourse such as a river, stream, lake or the
sea then you will need to obtain specific consent
from your local sewerage undertaker. If you fail
to do this you will be breaking the law and may
face legal action and substantial fines.
7
A consent to discharge trade effluent will
normally specify limits on the following

• EFFLUENT VOLUMES
• Maximum daily volume of effluent to be
  discharged.
• RATE OF DISCHARGE
• Maximum rate of effluent discharge.
• TOTAL SUSPENDED SOLIDS
• Details of Total Suspended Solids (TSS) of the
  effluent to be discharged.
• CHEMICAL OXYGEN DEMAND
• Details of the Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) of
  the effluent.
• TEMPERATURE
• The temperature range of the effluent.

• PH RANGE.
• The pH range of the effluent.
• OTHER FACTORS
• Any other wastewater quality, environmental or
  health and safety parameters based on the type of
  effluent to be discharged.

Evaluating your Wastewater Treatment Effluent
Needs Typically the treatment of industrial
effluents involves a number of distinct stages
and technologies, depending on the industry, type
and concentration of contaminants and overall
complexity of the effluent stream
involved. Through our team of wastewater
treatment experts we can perform a comprehensive
evaluation of your waste processes and effluent
discharge requirements to advise on the selection
of the most appropriate methods and technologies
for the treatment of your wastewater in order to
meet discharge compliance standards in the most
economic and environmentally sensitive
way. Monitoring levels of metals in your
effluent Wastewater Treatment Training The
