Water & Wastewater Pollution Control Solutions
Businesses in the water and wastewater industry require pollution control systems to comply with stringent environmental regulations. These solutions control contaminants like volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from the wastewater stream and hazardous, odorous gases such as nitrogen and phosphorus generated by the treatment process itself. Beyond regulatory compliance, these systems are critical for safeguarding ecosystems and public health.
MACH Engineering provides various air and water pollution control systems to keep your facility compliant. With innovative solutions like bio-media packing and extensive expertise, we remain at the forefront of pollution control while helping you address your application’s unique challenges.
Water and Wastewater Pollution Control Systems
- Air strippers: These packed tower systems remove VOCs and other contaminants from water. Wastewater air stripping involves forcing air through the contaminated water, which transfers the pollutants from the water to the air for safe treatment.
- Odor control systems: In wastewater pollution control, these solutions capture and remove foul-smelling and hazardous gases generated during wastewater treatment. Contaminated air passes through specialized packing media, where it’s cleaned before it’s released into the air.
- Internal packing media: This critical material fills odor scrubbers and air strippers to facilitate pollutant removal. We offer bio-media for breaking down biological matter and engineered shapes like plastic and ceramic pall rings and tri-packs. Our packing solutions are NSF-certified for drinking water applications.
What Are the Top-Rated Options for Odor Control Systems in Wastewater Treatment?
MACH Engineering designs wet scrubber configurations to match your facility’s contaminant profile, gas stream concentration and footprint:
- Packed bed scrubbers: Our most widely used configuration for wastewater treatment plants, tower packing maximizes gas-liquid contact to remove hydrogen sulfide, ammonia and sulfur compounds at high efficiency.
- Spray tower scrubbers: Spray tower scrubbers handle high-volume gas streams by atomizing liquid through the tower to absorb contaminants without packing media.
- Vent gas scrubbers: Vent gas scrubbers capture odorous compounds before they reach the surrounding environment and can handle process vent emissions from headworks, lift stations and sludge handling areas.
- Acid and alkali fume scrubbers: These scrubbers use chemical reagents matched to the specific contaminant for facilities managing corrosive emissions.
For high-concentration odor streams, we design multistage systems combining acid, caustic and oxidation treatments.
