Standard Sentinel
The WMEC aqueous effluent treatment system offers one of the most versatile answers to many difficult organic and inorganic pollution control problems for the small or medium sized site.It is easy to operate, compact and arrives on site factory assembled and tested.
Designed for batch operation, the Standard Sentinel treats batches of 1000 litres. The treatment time depends on the type of waste treated but is usually about 4-7 hours. This is determined largely by the flow rate through the Activated Carbon cartridges, which remove the final traces of most contaminants. Where lower impact contaminants are present or acceptable discharge specifications are less demanding, the Sentinel 1000 model may be adequate. Please contact us for more detailed information.
Benefits of the WMEC Standard include:
- Dramatic waste minimisation at source
- Treatment produces water suitable for discharge or reuse. The plant is particularly suited for the treatment of highly toxic organic contaminants and heavy metals.
- The small quantities of sludge produced can be disposed of safely & economically
- Eliminates the transport of bulk contaminated water to a licensed disposal site; the problem is treated at source
- Reduces possibility of pollution fines and in the worst case - close down. The WMEC Standard enjoys wide official recognition for effectively treating many environmental hazards
- Simple to operate
Capability
The Standard Sentinel is suitable for the removal of a wide range of organic and inorganic aqueous pollutants including heavy metals. Its combination of optimised flocculation with activated carbon treatment is designed to handle a wide variety of contaminants and reduce them to very low concentration.
Independent trials show that organic substances up to a maximum concentration of 3% can be effectively removed from water by the standard pre-packaged treatment process to levels which are usually below the limits of detection of HPLC or GLC analysis. This includes many well known toxic contaminants such as pesticides or "Red List" industrial pollutants. Dangerous heavy metals such as Copper, Cadmium or Chromium may normally be removed to levels well below those permitted for discharge into public sewers.
Gross contamination with oil or high concentrations of soluble organic solvents are unlikely to be processed satisfactorily and suitable pre-treatment is required. Advice is available from WMEC Technical Services.
The resulting treated water may be re-used for purposes such as washing equipment, containers, plant or working areas. Alternatively it may be disposed of by soil surface irrigation or to the public sewer although in both cases the prior approval of the relevant authorities should be sought.
