Water Treatment System Reducing Carbon

This contractor is using a water treatment system which reduces their carbon footprint, provides confidence in their consenting requirements, improves incident response time and reduces usage of chemical consumables.

The manufacturer identified that other water treatment systems treated construction waste waters for Total Suspended Solids (TSS) and pH correction regardless of the parameters of the waters going into the systems.

By treating waters based on parameters being received by the units, they have been able to discharge waste waters within consenting values without chemical dosing, where waters were contaminated, the system automatically dosed and brought these back within consenting parameters quickly. Dosing requirements have been reduced by 75% and 85% at two locations established in 2024, reducing their chemical consumable usage and carbon footprint associated with the manufacture of such products.

The system comes with inbuilt telemetry as standard, improving historic and live data collection for consenting purposes and mobile phone alerts notify the Environmental Water Management team of any potential environmental incidents associated with discharging of waste waters well before they escalate.
