Industrial Effluent → Screening & Pre-treatment → Primary Treatment → Secondary Treatment → Tertiary Treatment → Treated Water / Safe Discharge
“Industrial and commercial Effluent Treatment Plants (E.T.P) for safe wastewater disposal, recycling, and regulatory compliance.”
Effluent Treatment Plants (E.T.P) are designed to treat industrial and commercial wastewater before discharge or reuse. Universal Water Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. provides customized E.T.P solutions for chemical, pharmaceutical, textile, food & beverage, and other industries to ensure regulatory compliance, environmental safety, and sustainable operations.

The first stage of the E.T.P process ensures that incoming industrial wastewater is prepared for treatment. Pre-treatment removes coarse solids, oils, and debris, protecting downstream equipment and improving overall efficiency.
Components & Functions:
Screens & Grit Chambers: Remove large solids, sand, and debris
Oil & Grease Separators: Remove oil and grease to prevent clogging
Equalization Tanks: Balance flow and load for consistent treatment
Benefits:
Protects equipment and tanks from damage
Ensures smooth operation of the E.T.P system
Reduces maintenance frequency
Primary treatment removes suspended solids and chemical contaminants from the effluent using sedimentation and chemical dosing.
Components & Functions:
Sedimentation Tanks: Settle out solids from wastewater
Chemical Dosing Systems: Coagulants and flocculants to bind impurities
Skimmers & Sludge Collectors: Remove floating solids and sludge
Benefits:
Reduces suspended solids and toxic load
Prepares wastewater for biological treatment
Minimizes environmental impact
Secondary treatment involves biological processes that degrade organic matter and reduce BOD/COD levels in the effluent.
Components & Functions:
Aeration Tanks / Biofilters / MBBR: Microorganisms break down organic pollutants
Clarifiers: Separate treated water from biological sludge
Aerators & Diffusers: Provide oxygen to support microbial activity
Benefits:
Reduces BOD, COD, and organic contaminants
Produces treated water suitable for discharge or reuse
Enhances system reliability and environmental compliance
The final stage removes residual impurities, color, and odor to ensure effluent meets regulatory standards.
Components & Functions:
Sand & Activated Carbon Filters: Remove fine solids, color, and odor
UV / Chlorination Units: Disinfect water from bacteria and pathogens
pH Adjusters: Stabilize water before discharge
Benefits:
Ensures effluent meets CPCB and State Pollution Control Board norms
Produces safe, environmentally compliant water
Enables reuse of treated water in industrial applications
small factories, commercial units
medium industries, hotels, food plants
large factories, refineries, chemical industries
for solid settling and sludge formation
neutralize acidic or alkaline effluent
protect equipment and improve treatment
UV/chlorine treatment for microbial safety
