Abstract

Selection of a treatment process depends on the nature of the wastewater and the quality of the effluent desired. Hazardous components of the wastewater may be either separated or converted to nonhazardous forms in order to allow disposal of the wastewater effluent by conventional methods. Conversion processes can be done simply or in multiple steps. Hazardous components which are separated from the wastewater must be disposed of and this may take additional steps. The article discusses these additional steps and treatment devices, including liquid-solids separation, wastewater screeners, centrifuges, chemical treatment, physical treatment, incineration, and solidification techniques.
