Technology and innovation in Research and Development
The operation of water and wastewater treatment plants comes with several challenges, some of which are increased costs. EP Aqua’s expertise in water research and development helps:
- Analyse each stage of the operation process, identify failures, and recommend technical improvements.
- Guide in reducing waste by optimizing chemical dosage adjustments.
- Raise awareness about the importance of preventive maintenance to extend equipment lifespan.
Some of the solutions we implement to achieve all this:
Advanced oxidation
We use specific technologies, primarily FENTON, ozone, and UV lamps, to remove contaminants and improve wastewater quality.
Steelclean process
A fully exclusive solution for the steel industry that helps in treating wastewater loaded with oils and heavy metals.
SDI
(Silt Density Index)
This tool is applied in reverse osmosis and nanofiltration systems, playing a crucial role in reducing maintenance costs for industries.
Training and technical ability building for your team
To ensure your operation continue functioning well, it’s important to invest in training and development. With EP Aqua, you can train your team on the key aspects of wastewater treatment, such as best operational practices, and how to apply new technologies.
