Industrial wastewater treatment
Physical, chemical and biological treatment for complex industrial effluent, from DAF to MBR.
Overview
Industrial effluent changes by the hour. We design treatment that absorbs shock loads, recovers what it can and discharges reliably within consent. Delivery runs from feasibility through to performance testing.
COD removal
90–98%*
Capacity
200–60,000 m³/d*
Processes
DAF, MBBR, MBR, SBR, UF
Sludge
Thickening, dewatering, drying
Delivery
EPC, EPCM or design-only

How it works
The treatment train.
Each stage is sized on your water, not a catalogue. The sequence below is typical; every design is confirmed by sampling and, where useful, pilot trials.
01
Equalisation
02
DAF / clarification
03
Biological (MBBR / MBR)
04
Tertiary filtration
05
Sludge handling
Why AQUARC
What you get that a catalogue doesn’t.
01
Shock-load resilient
Equalisation and buffer capacity sized on real production data, not averages.
02
Compact footprints
MBR and MBBR options where space is the hardest constraint on site.
03
Resource recovery
Biogas, nutrients and heat recovery assessed on every project.
04
Consent confidence
Online compliance monitoring with alarms before limits, not after.
