| Case study | Description |
|---|---|
| Controlling Rainwater Sediment at a Surface Coal Mine | This client is a surface coal mine in the southwestern US. The facility was having logistics challenges with their current chemical supplier, and this was hampering the efficiency of their operation. Brenntag was invited to discuss solving the logistics problems, but to also address the potential for improving the overall water treatment program using better chemistry. |
| Lowering FOG and TSS at a Frozen Foods Producer | This facility is a very large food company on the east coast that specializes in various pre-packaged and frozen foods. The plant was experiencing challenges with their wastewater handling process, so Brenntag was brought in to help address a recent reconfiguration of their system, and assist the plant operators with continuing education. |
| Optimizing Clarifier Operation at a Drinking Water Plant | On a referral from a nearby water plant, Brenntag was asked to help optimize the clarifier operation at a 2MGD conventional plant using very old clarifiers. They were currently using an alum/copper sulfate blend and dosing a polyacrylamide flocculant separately. |
| Solids Settling at a Food Plant | A regional juice manufacturing plant met with Brenntag’s Water Treatment Specialists to discuss challenges they were experiencing with their wastewater system. |
| Successful Conversion to Liquid Coagulants in Municipal Drinking Water | A current municipal client reached out to see if Brenntag could help them transition from a dry chemical system to a new liquid coagulant. They were ready to simplify their process and get away from using dry products with feed equipment requiring costly maintenance and related downtime. |
| Successful Phosphorus Removal at a Wastewater Plant | The removal of phosphorus from domestic wastewater is primarily to reduce the potential for eutrophication in receiving waters and is mandated and common in many geographies. Depending on the local restrictions, influent loading and water conditions, this can become very challenging. |
