Efficient and circular use of water in industry
Integrated water management in the agri-food industries
Agri-food industries face the challenge of adopting the principles of the circular economy in water management.
Redesigning production processes with the mindset of avoiding “wastewater” and considering all liquid streams generated as a source of resources to be used.
The goal is to achieve maximum efficiency in water use by optimising its use and facilitating the maximum internal or external recycling of resources, and/or the reuse of water in the plant itself or in the nearby environment.
A change in mindset, with an integrated and circular vision of water use, together with the incorporation of new treatment technologies, will make this transformation possible.
At AINIA, we add value
- Treatment of residual streams
- Reuse of process water and wastewater
- Recovery and valorisation of resources present in residual streams
Efficient use of water in industry
Treatment, Reuse and Recovery and valorisation of resources present in residual streams, to increase the competitiveness and sustainability of companies in water management.
- Feasibility study of processes and industrial and urban wastewater treatment facilities
- Biological treatment of wastewater, especially MFC, MBR and SBR
- Recovery of resources and high added-value compounds from wastewater, process water and mixed liquid streams
- Tertiary wastewater treatment: membrane separation processes (MF, UF, NF, RO, DF, MC, PV, MD, GS, FO), multimedia filtration, activated carbon adsorption and ion exchange, ultrasound, electrodialysis (ED, EDR, EDM, EDBM), electrocoagulation, etc.
- Disinfection treatment of wastewater and process water: O3, US, UV, H2O2, photocatalysis, etc.
- Treatability tests (proofs of concept) for wastewater and process water
- Pretreatment processes in biorefinery projects
- Downstream processes in biorefinery projects
- Sampling and physicochemical and microbiological analysis of wastewater and process water
