Offers new or unexplored recycle and re-use
opportunities.
Offers simple wastewater handling practices
for environmentally sustainable development.
Realisation of value-added by-product recovery
opportunities and associated markets. E.g. composting, biogas
generation, soil conditioners, vermiculture, energy generation,
farm feeds, tallow and protein recovery.
Offers opportunities to re-engineer current
wastewater practices due to enhanced filtration and separation
capability.
Improves and/or maintains influent characteristics
by enabling primary filtration to a specific micron rating.
Economic benefits to the industrial end user typically
means a payback period within 12 to 24 months. Ongoing cost savings
include; reduced waste water treatment plant maintenance and/or
increased water recycling or re-use.
Can be readily adapted to mobile clean-up
systems and emergency pollution response (for oil spills and
land remediation etc) due to its innovative, enhanced separation capability.
The Baleen filter limits the requirement for
anaerobic treatment of the wastewater to help alleviate odour
issues.
The Baleen filter means that land traditionally
used for settling ponds can now be reclaimed.
The removal of solids early in production
or from the process chain and close to the source, (a principle
of ‘Cleaner Production’) greatly impacts upon water
treatment plant design and can offer immediate reductions of SS,
FOG, BOD and COD loadings from suspension.
