The right solution for your water challenge

PCA Water offers tailor-made solutions for the treatment of industrial process water and wastewater. From water treatment and water reuse to specialised treatment techniques, we help companies optimise their water management, control costs and comply with applicable environmental standards.

A. Process water solutions

We offer reliable solutions for process water treatment, tailored to the specific quality requirements and needs of your industrial processes.

PROCESS WATER

Demineralised water production

Our demineralised water production systems remove dissolved salts and minerals from water. Using technologies such as ion exchange and reverse osmosis, we produce high-quality demineralised water that meets the quality requirements of your industrial processes.

PROCESS WATER

Water softening

Our water softeners remove calcium and magnesium from water, preventing scale deposits in pipework and installations. This increases operational reliability, reduces maintenance costs and extends the lifetime of your equipment.

PROCESS WATER

Surface water and groundwater treatment

Groundwater and surface water vary by location and over time, with specific challenges such as iron and manganese in groundwater and suspended solids or organic compounds in surface water. PCA Water supplies effective pre-treatment systems using techniques such as iron removal, manganese removal, sand and multimedia filtration, activated carbon filtration and ultrafiltration, optionally supplemented by reverse osmosis for further desalination, integrating seamlessly with your industrial processes.

PROCESS WATER

Specific pre-treatment and removal of undesirable substances

Certain applications require targeted treatment to remove specific substances that affect the operation of installations or the production process. PCA Water uses a wide range of techniques, such as mechanical filtration for suspended particles, activated carbon filtration for organic compounds and ion exchange for dissolved ions. The choice is carefully matched to the water composition and the required final quality, where appropriate supported by targeted laboratory or pilot trials.

B. Wastewater solutions

PCA Water develops solutions for the treatment and reuse of industrial wastewater. In this way, we help companies comply with their discharge standards, reduce water consumption and recover valuable water streams.

WASTEWATER

Vacuum evaporator

Vacuum evaporation makes it possible to highly concentrate industrial wastewater and recover water. Evaporation at reduced pressure considerably reduces the volume of waste and produces a distillate that, depending on its quality, can be reused.

WASTEWATER

Physico-chemical treatment

With physico-chemical treatment, we remove contaminants from industrial wastewater through processes such as coagulation, flocculation and precipitation. Our installations are tailored to the composition of the wastewater and the required discharge standards.

WASTEWATER

PFAS removal

PFAS are persistent substances that place increasingly stringent demands on the treatment of industrial wastewater. PCA Water offers targeted treatment solutions, including activated carbon and ion exchange, to reduce PFAS concentrations and meet applicable discharge requirements.

WASTEWATER

Sludge dewatering

Efficient sludge dewatering reduces the water content and volume of treatment sludge. This lowers storage, transport and processing costs and makes sludge management simpler and more sustainable.

C. Other industrial solutions and services

In addition to process water and wastewater treatment, PCA Water offers specialised solutions and support services for a wide range of industrial applications.

OTHER

Die cleaning

PCA Water designs and builds fully automated installations for cleaning extrusion dies in the aluminium industry. Aluminium residues are removed using an NaOH solution. The cleaning and rinsing process runs automatically in closed tanks, keeping contact between operators and hazardous chemicals to a minimum. This combines efficient cleaning with increased safety and the controlled reuse of chemicals.

OTHER

Flux iron removal

In the galvanising of carbon steel, it is important that the flux bath maintains a consistently low iron (Fe) concentration. A flux iron removal installation is the most suitable technique to achieve this. In such an installation, the Fe is oxidised and then separated by dewatering to obtain a clear flux.

PCA can support you with this technology, in both the design and construction of the installation.
