Why must firms treat industrial ...

The impact of water scarcity is rapidly increasing. Currently, only 20% of the wastewater is treated globally before discharging back into the water bodies. An old-school approach to wastewater management has caused an irreversible negative impact on our ecosystem. Firms are constantly struggling to keep up with environmental regulations and meeting stakeholder demands. As water demand and supply are becoming increasingly aggravated, it has become crucial for the firms to reconceptualize and see these challenges as a growth opportunity. As of now the common drivers for the companies to treat industrial wastewater is often tied to regulatory compliance. This article will highlight some of the key advantages of treating wastewater beyond regulatory compliance.

Sofi Filter featured in the Nov/Dec 2016 issue of the Filtration and Separation Magazine

Sofi Filtration is happy to share its knowledge on wastewater in the latest issue of Filtration and Separation magazine. The article, details a tunneling wastewater project in Helsinki, Finland, where settling tanks did not provide sufficient total suspended solids reduction. In addition, the use of coagulants and flocculants to aid settling was not working, so Sofi Filtration was brought in and used its self-cleaning Sofi Filter to solve the problem. 

"We are proud that our solution could be successfully implemented. The Sofi Filter system is fully automated to operate only when the settling tanks reach a certain level. It requires no chemicals or frequent bag-filter changes and no routine operator attention", said Ville Hakala, Sofi Filtration CEO. These operating features gave the construction company the freedom to focus on the tunneling work and not be distracted by water treatment.
