Information on Lanthanide Salt Chemistry from the blog of Neo Performance Materials, a Wastewater Treatment Plant Chemicals Company. Here we discuss the use of Lanthanide Salt for the removal of phosphorus within the wastewater treatment industry.
Denser Drier Sludge
Phosphorus Removal and Sludge Management Removing phosphorus from wastewater usually involves use of a coagulant, especially if you have a low Total Phosphorus (TP) limit. Traditional coagulants, carried over from the water treatment side of the industry, are based on...
Neo WaterFX300 Protects Sensitive River while Aiding Expansion at Coppermine WRF
Growth can often be a double-edged sword for a water reclamation facility (WRF). With an expansion looming to double the capacity of their membrane bioreactor (MBR) facility, the Coppermine WRF was exploring ways to improve their phosphorus removal from wastewater....
Toxicity Of Lanthanides In Wastewater
The toxicity of chemical additives to wastewater should be tested to determine the effect of the additives on the ecosystem. Ideally the additive will do what it is designed to do, only be discharged in a minimal amount, and not have any adverse effects on the...
WaterFX reduces chemical feeds
WaterFX reduces chemical feeds Removing phosphorus from wastewater can add a lot to your chemical feeds, and to your costs. First, there is the coagulant. If you are using aluminum or ferric-based coagulants, the amount of coagulant you add is often at least 4 to 1 in...
Better Dewatering with Neo WaterFX
Crystals Beat Floc — Better Dewatering with Neo WaterFXRemoving phosphorus from wastewater can create large quantities of difficult to dewater sludge, driving up disposal costs. The cause is choosing the wrong coagulant. Traditional coagulants, iron or aluminum based,...
