→ APPLICATIONS / TREATMENT PLANT WASTEWATER
Treatment plant wastewater.
By reducing excess wastewater held in ponds, XPEL strengthens hydraulic control and helps treatment plants operate within safe, predictable limits.
TREATMENT PLANT WASTEWATER
Treatment plant wastewater volumes often change rapidly due to stormwater inflow, industrial discharge patterns or production shifts.
These fluctuations increase the volume held in onsite ponds, equalization basins or storage structures, creating conditions that can indirectly stress clarifiers, aeration systems and filtration assets once that water enters the treatment process.
When stored wastewater rises beyond safe levels, facilities face operational risk. Excess volume can reduce available buffer capacity, force unplanned diversions or increase the likelihood of sending higher flows into downstream treatment stages faster than they can be processed. This pressure can compromise stability across biological, mechanical and chemical systems.
XPEL supports treatment plant performance by evaporating wastewater from ponds and storage areas that cannot be treated. By lowering stored volume through high-throughput mechanical evaporation, the system helps plants maintain consistent operating space during peak inflow periods or storm-driven events.
XPEL water evaporation technology provides a scalable, cost-effective method for reducing wastewater volumes without expanding treatment infrastructure. These systems strengthen overall plant resilience, support regulatory performance, and help facilities operate with greater predictability across changing wastewater conditions.
Treatment plants must manage wastewater stored in ponds and balancing structures before it enters the treatment process. XPEL helps these facilities control hydraulic load by evaporating excess water and restoring operating capacity during variable conditions.
Treatment plant wastewater applications.
■
-
Food processing wastewater often contains high organic loads. XPEL reduces stored wastewater volumes in ponds, helping plants maintain steadier conditions before treatment begins.
-
Treatment plants handling produced water or industrial effluent benefit from XPEL volume reduction, which restores operating space and reduces pressure on separation and filtration systems.
-
Mining wastewater storage areas experience fluctuating water levels from runoff and processing circuits. XPEL evaporation lowers these volumes, helping specialised treatment plants maintain capacity.
-
Municipal treatment plants rely on XPEL to manage storm-driven inflows stored in equalization basins, reducing excess volume before it reaches critical treatment processes.
-
Legacy and industrial sites often accumulate contaminated wastewater over long periods. XPEL restores hydraulic space in storage ponds, supporting controlled, long-term remediation efforts.
-
Pulp and paper operations generate fiber- and chemical-rich effluent. XPEL reduces stored wastewater in onsite ponds, improving downstream treatment stability.
-
Manufacturing wastewater varies in load and volume. XPEL helps treatment plants maintain access to stable operating conditions by lowering excess stored water before it reaches the process.
