Benefits of Zero Liquid Discharge
Zero liquid discharge plant technology is growing globally as an important wastewater management strategy to reduce water pollution and extend water supply. The main benefits of ZLD are: Minimizes wastewater discharge. Maximizes water recovery
- Minimizes wastewater discharge
- Maximizes water recovery.
- Eliminates a lot of environmental problems.
Zero liquid discharge (ZLD) is a strategic wastewater management system that ensures that there will be no discharge of industrial wastewater into the environment. It is achieved by treating wastewater through recycling and then recovery and reuse for industrial purpose.
- Power generation.
- Oil and Gas field produced water.
- Pigment Industries.
- Chemical processing and manufacture.
- Textile Industries.
- Pharmaceutical Industries.
- Food Industries
- Industrial and Municipal Landfill.
- Commercial and Residential Buildings.
- Dye and Intermediate Industries
The Potential applications for reuse of treated wastewater are:
- Industrial cooling especially in large industrial enterprices.
- Reuse in watering lawns, parks, playgrounds and trees.
- Preparation of lime slurry for ETP
- Mechanic seal of Pumps
- Scrubbing media in water scrubbers
- Industrial washing operations & (decontamination of drums / barrels / plastic bags etc.)
- Boiler feed water particularly for generating steam for MEE
