Industrial Effluent Treatment Plant (ETP) Solutions

Advanced ozone-based ETP systems for complex industrial effluent treatment. Achieve stringent discharge standards, enable water reuse, and reduce operating costs with our proven, chemical-free treatment technology.

Industrial ETP Challenges

Complex industrial effluent requires advanced treatment solutions

High COD/BOD Loads

Industrial effluent with extremely high organic content (COD >1000 mg/L) exceeding conventional biological treatment capabilities

Complex & Toxic Contaminants

Presence of heavy metals, pharmaceuticals, persistent organic pollutants, dyes, aromatics, and hazardous substances

Stringent Discharge Norms

Increasingly strict Pollution Control Board standards requiring advanced treatment for safe discharge or reuse

Variable Waste Streams

Changing effluent composition, flow rates, and toxicity requiring flexible, robust treatment systems

How Our ETP Solution Works

1

Pre-Treatment & Equalization

Screen large solids, adjust pH, and equalize flow to ensure consistent feed to the ozone system

2

Primary Ozone Treatment

High-concentration ozone destroys complex organics, oxidises heavy metals, and breaks down toxic compounds through advanced oxidation

3

Clarification & Filtration

Remove oxidised precipitates, suspended solids, and residual contaminants through coagulation, flocculation, and filtration

4

Polishing & Discharge/Reuse

Final ozone polishing ensures compliance with discharge norms or prepares water for reuse in cooling towers, process water, or irrigation

Benefits of Ozone-Based ETP

Environmental Compliance

Meet stringent PCB discharge standards and environmental regulations

Water Recovery & Reuse

Enable treated effluent reuse for process water, cooling, and ZLD systems

Reduced Operating Costs

Lower chemical usage, energy consumption, and sludge disposal expenses

Enhanced Treatment Efficiency

Superior removal of complex organics, toxic compounds, and heavy metals

Frequently Asked Questions

How does ozone improve ETP performance compared to conventional treatment?

Ozone provides advanced oxidation that breaks down complex industrial pollutants conventional methods cannot handle. It eliminates colour and odour, oxidises heavy metals for easier removal, reduces sludge production by 40-60%, and achieves superior effluent quality for safe discharge or reuse. Unlike biological treatment, ozone works on non-biodegradable compounds and is not affected by toxic shocks.

What discharge standards can ozone-based ETPs achieve?

Our ozone-based ETP systems can help achieve the most stringent PCB discharge standards including COD <100 mg/L (from >1000 mg/L), BOD <30 mg/L, colour removal >95%, heavy metal levels below prescribed limits, and complete elimination of toxic organic compounds. This meets requirements for both surface water discharge and water reuse applications.

Can ozone handle varying industrial effluent characteristics?

Yes, our automated ozone systems are designed with real-time monitoring of COD, BOD, pH, and ORP. The system automatically adjusts ozone dosing based on incoming effluent characteristics, making it ideal for industries with variable waste streams. This ensures consistent treatment efficiency despite composition changes.

Is ozone treatment suitable for Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) systems?

Absolutely. Ozone is an excellent pre-treatment step for ZLD systems as it breaks down organic compounds, improves treatability, and enables higher water recovery rates. Combined with our reverse osmosis and evaporation systems, we provide complete ZLD solutions for industries requiring zero effluent discharge.

What are the typical operating costs compared to chemical-based treatment?

While initial investment may be higher, ozone systems typically reduce operating costs by 30-40% over time due to: no chemical procurement and storage, 40-60% less sludge generation (reducing disposal costs), lower energy consumption than thermal oxidation, minimal maintenance requirements, and ability to recover and reuse water.

How long does it take to implement an ozone-based ETP solution?

Implementation timeline depends on plant capacity and complexity. Typical projects range from 3-6 months including design, manufacturing, installation, commissioning, and performance validation. We work closely with your team to ensure minimal disruption to operations during installation.
