The Dyes industry is certainly one of the most water consuming industry. It is also the industry where effluent water generated constitutes 75 % of the water intake.
Therefore waste or effluent water treatment pumps are necessary for preventing and controlling pollution. Effluent discharge is not only hazardous for employees but also for the public.
Furthermore increased cost and poor availability of a constant freshwater supply also necessitate recycling water.
Sometimes desalination is also a way of using sea water, which would ensure a constant supply.
Standard wastewater treatment systems deal with several thousand gallons of water daily, and therefore require substantial polymers and alums to be dosed into the system. Chemical metering pumps are most often the best equipped for this process.
