Disc Diffuser In Pharmaceutical Industry Wastewater Treatment

Biological Treatment: Pharmaceutical wastewater is typically rich in organic matter, nitrogen compounds and other pollutants that need to be removed through biological treatment. Aeration trays facilitate the biodegradation process in wastewater by spraying oxygen into the wastewater to provide microorganisms with the oxygen they need. This biological treatment is known as Aerated Activated Sludge (AAS) and it effectively breaks down the organic matter in the wastewater.

Suspended Solids Removal: Suspended solids such as particles, bacteria and microorganisms may be present in pharmaceutical wastewater. Aeration trays maintain the suspended solids in wastewater in a suspended state by generating air bubbles, making them easier to remove through subsequent sedimentation or filtration processes.

Dissolved Oxygen Supply: Aeration trays increase the concentration of dissolved oxygen in the wastewater by injecting oxygen, which is important for microorganisms to carry out organic pollutant degradation. Microorganisms require oxygen to complete the degradation process and the aeration tray ensures an adequate supply of oxygen.

Regulating effluent pH: Pharmaceutical industry wastewater may have different pH values, as some pharmaceutical processes may produce acidic or alkaline wastewater. Aeration trays can be used to regulate the pH of the wastewater to ensure that it is in the right pH range for biodegradation and other treatment processes.

Aeration trays play a key role in pharmaceutical industry wastewater treatment by helping the wastewater to remove organic pollutants, suspended solids and regulate water quality parameters to meet environmental regulations and discharge standards. This helps pharmaceutical companies reduce negative environmental impacts and ensure that wastewater discharges meet acceptable water quality standards. However, wastewater treatment is a complex process that requires the design and operation of an disc diffuser system based on specific pharmaceutical wastewater constituents and requirements to ensure its efficient operation. Through these efforts, we can better protect the environment while maintaining the sustainability of the pharmaceutical industry.
