pH Adjustment Batch (PAB)
Manufacturing
New South Wales
BACKGROUND
In late 2018 MAK Water was approached by a large family owned business in Sydney to provide a suitable solution to their increasing volumes of trade wastewater from their manufacturing process. The business was producing approximately 7-8 thousand litres a week of mildly acidic wastewater that they were paying to be disposed of by a liquid waste company as the pH was too low to be suitable for disposal into Sydney Water’s sewer system.
The volumes being removed were relatively small compared to other companies so having a system that could meet the discharge specification and be cost effective was very important.
