Why add Neutralac® to wastewater treatment?
Main liming wastewater performances:
Acidic wastewater neutralization
Necessary reagents quantities for acids neutralization
Neutralization of acidic waste streams involves raising the pH, usually by adding an alkaline chemical, such as lime. There are several other chemicals that can also be used, but due to cost, handling problems, high total dissolved solids in the effluent, or mobility of heavy metals in the sludge, Neutralac® reagents are the neutralizing materials of choice.
When considering the cost of neutralizing agents and alkali requirements, lime is the most cost-effective option to neutralize acids.
- Heavy metals precipitation
- Increasing of the effluent's buffering capacity
- Avoid the formation of floating sludge
