CASE STUDY: industrial wastewater purification plants
INDUSTRIAL WASTEWATER PURIFICATION PLANTS
The treatment and the purification of industrial and civil wastewater is an industrial process fundamental for the safeguard of the environment and of the people living nearby. The industrial wastewater purification plants must undergo a purification process, both as a function of recycling and to respect environmental safeguard parameters. Some processes or commonly used machineries may give rise to consistent malodorous emissions.

INDUSTRIAL WASTEWATER PURIFICATION PLANT: how it works
In the majority of industrial wastewater treatment plants, substances responsible for bad smells are ammonia (NH3), hydrogen sulphide (H2S) and Mercaptans (RSH). Said substances are perceptible to human’s sense of smell even in extremely low concentrations and are responsible for annoying odours.
THE PLANT FOR INDUSTRIAL WASTEWATER PURIFICATION
CHALLENGES
OPTIMISE AND SIMPLIFY
Limited spaces, the high performances requested, the presence of other plants with which to interact, the interferences and the necessity to keep the industrial air purification plant working 24/24h are just a few of the challenges that BMB plants must face. In this case, it was necessary to obtain an almost total efficiency of removal, combined with a plant management that was easy and economically convenient.
SOLUTION
CREATE A CUSTOMISED PURIFIER
Realisation of an optimised purifier with high level of automation, with a customised parameters control, remote monitoring and alarm system, in order to transmit maintenance interventions.
The industrial wastewater purification plants have been structured with the following scheme:
The polluted air stream passes through two wet washing towers (scrubber) capable of reducing the acid compounds (hydrogen sulphide H2S); odours are subsequently removed by a biofiltering unit.
TURNKEY PLANTS
Each industrial wastewater purification plant realized by BMB is custom designed after thorough field study. The initial study of condition, context and potential problems allows or technicians to propose targeted and tailored industrial wastewater purification plants, appointed plants and specific technologies for any kind of problem.

FAQs about industrial wastewater purification plants
What are industrial wastewater purification plants?
Industrial wastewater purification plants are systems designed to treat and purify industrial and civil wastewater, ensuring environmental protection and compliance with regulations. These plants typically use technologies like biofilters and washing towers to remove odors and harmful substances, such as hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), achieving high removal efficiencies of up to 98% for odors and 99% for H₂S.
How do industrial wastewater purification plants work?
Industrial wastewater purification plants work by passing polluted air or water through a series of treatment processes. In these plants, polluted air is first treated in washing towers (scrubbers) to reduce acid compounds like hydrogen sulfide (H₂S). The air is then passed through biofilters to remove remaining odors, ensuring effective purification before discharge.
What are the benefits of using industrial wastewater purification plants?
Industrial wastewater purification plants offer benefits such as high pollutant removal efficiency (up to 99% for substances like H₂S), energy efficiency, and compliance with environmental regulations. They help reduce harmful emissions, protect the environment, and ensure sustainable wastewater management.
Where is an industrial wastewater purification plant commonly used?
Industrial wastewater purification plants are commonly used in sectors such as manufacturing, chemical processing, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and wastewater treatment facilities, where large volumes of wastewater need to be treated and purified to meet environmental standards.
