Superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) are used for the containment and treatment of wastewaters. SAPs are mixed with a wastewater in amounts sufficient to absorb substantially all of the wastewater and prevent it from leaving a defined containment area. The water can then be evaporated from the SAP to produce a substantially dry polymer composition containing the SAP and the wastewater contaminants.
Wastewater containment and treatment methods . United States Patent 6623645 The containment and treatment of wastewater is often a major cost associated with a business enterprise. Much effort has been devoted to developing methods and apparatus for containing and treating wastewater in an economical way, e.g., using as little energy as
Get PriceThe treatment methods currently used for pesticide con- taining wastewater include: 1) incineration, 2) chemical treatment, 3) physical treatment and 4) biological treat- ment. These treatment methods either require land or are expensive and suffer from variability of effectiveness [15]. Thus, the development and selection of safe, on

This process essentially involves the removal of large non-biodegradable and floating solids that frequently enter a wastewater works, such as rags, papers, plastics, tins, containers and wood.
Get PriceContainment and processing of odors, as well as emissions of VOCs (volatile organic compounds) and HAPs (hazardous air pollutants), whether regulatory-driven or good neighbor-/community-driven, are forcing municipal and industrial wastewater facilities to evaluate and re-formulate their processes so they can achieve the mandated or desired atmospheric emission levels.
