Wastewater Treatment
Industrial Wastewater Treatment
BI Pure Water designs on-site waste treatment systems and systems that increase process efficiency rather than relying on waste disposal that involves continuously transporting or dumping waste effluent. Some systems may be designed to recover water, nutrients or generate energy. Effluent from one process might be perfectly suitable for reuse in another process on site. With the proper treatment, a significant proportion of industrial on-site process water can be re-used or pollutants destroyed with new technologies.
Mining Wastewaters
We have designed a package treatment skid for dewatering mine tailings and built an SO2 cyanide detox plant. Currently exploring selenium destruction and ammonia treatment in cold environments.
Pharmaceutical & Cosmetic
Mineral wastes can be rendered non-toxic, and the biological and chemical oxidation demand of pharmaceutical wastewaters reduced, which eliminates expensive waste disposal. More about:

Pulp and Paper
Pulp and paper wastewaters usually contain lignins, sulfides, chlorinated organic compounds, dyes and biologically degradable chemicals such as cellulose. Our Advanced Oxidation Process is capable of oxidizing the compounds safely, except for cellulose. Cellulose is a polymer of glucose and is highly resistant to oxidation. Ask us for a consultation.
Brewery and winery
Wastewater from breweries or wineries usually requires separating and diverting through different streams. A membrane bioreactor can be a suitable treatment.
Oil & Gas/Fracking water
The oil and gas extraction and refining industry generates a wide variety of hydrocarbon-contaminated wastewaters such as tailing pond water, spent caustic, produced waters, frack water, cooling tower water, sour water, and tank bottom water. Hydrocarbon wastewater treatment.
Landfill Leachate
Our containerized membrane bioreactors efficiently treat landfill leachate. We also have an advanced oxidation process that is rendering landfill leachates non-toxic. More about our landfill leachate treatments
Agriculture & Fisheries
Systems that are working to recycle fishery and domestic animal wastewater. Also chlorination systems for purifying greenhouse water for reuse.
