Why Does Veolia Provide Biowaste Solutions?

Biowaste or food waste is increasingly regarded as a resource instead of a waste requiring disposal. Organic material contained within leftover food waste collected from homes, from food manufacturers and restaurants represents a significant sustainable energy source. Rather than disposing of organic food waste to landfill, Veolia’s biowaste solutions can be used to recover biogas while producing nutrient rich fertilizer cake.

Flotation Technology

Flotation technology for water and wastewater treatment

Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) technology is an effective clarification method for low-density solids that sedimentation cannot remove in applications such as drinking water, process water, and wastewater treatment. With different flotation technologies and dissolved air flotation (DAF) clarifier models, our experts will take the time to provide the right solution for your particular water treatment requirements.

-How flotation technology works

Solids are floated in the clarifier by chemical coagulation and flocculation, and by adding microbubbles. The microbubbles are created in an unpacked saturator which combines 8 to 15% recycle from the clarified water with compressed air. The pressurized air/water mixture is sent through a row of nozzles or special injector depending on the type of DAF technology. For some applications, nitrogen is used as the flotation gas.

A pressure drop brings the air out of solution and creates microbubbles, which adhere to the solids and float them to the top of the floatation zone. Clarified water is collected from the laterals at the bottom of the DAF.

Sludge is then either hydraulically removed over a stationary weir by raising the water level on a set interval, or mechanically removed with a scraper.

Ion Exchange Systems

High purity softened and demineralized water

Ion exchange technology is a proven method of producing high purity softened and demineralized water. It is used in most industries that require high purity water and to reclaim water from processes. The Ion exchange process involves the exchanging of contaminant ions for Na+ ions in a softening application and H+ and OH- ions in pure water application. Veolia offers a range of ion exchange products for applications, including condensate and brine polishing, vacuum degassing, and desalination.
