Industrial waste treatment or trade effluent treatment stands for treating the by-product of industrial processes. The treated effluent may be reused or disposed of as per PCB norms. The Mechanical design consultants ensure the factory has a treatment system. Additionally, the by-products are processed as per the statutory Pollution Control Board norms.
Classification:
The industrial wastes are of the following types:
- Chemical Waste: This waste is usually from warehouses and processing centers. The Mechanical consultants must ensure that the waste treatment is as per PCB.
- Solid Wastes: This includes packaging material, cardboard, paper, metal wastes, wood pallets, and paper. The best way is to segregate it at the factory, reuse it, or send it for recycling.
- Toxic and hazardous waste: This effluent waste is harmful, needs proper disposal, or will result in health hazards.
Benefits of proper treatment
The manufacturing facilities must have a proper effluent treatment system and disposal process for the following reasons:
- Waste Reduction
- Reduction in pollution
- Energy production
- Fertilizer production
To conclude, the mechanical design consultants decide on the type of treatment and disposal as per the process needs and statutory compliances. In short, the facilities with effluent, treatment and proper disposal are a must.
