Liquid waste removal and industrial cleaning services by the professional waste management company Liquid waste removal is important as untreated liquid waste can contaminate the surface and groundwater, and also soil. Diseases like cholera, dysentery, and typhoid are usually the outcome of unsafe disposal of liquid waste. Liquid waste is usually generated from household activities in toilets and kitchens, commercial activities in manufacturing and retail, industrial manufacturing activities, particularly pulp, paper
and textile manufacturing, and surface run-off water. Liquid waste can contain fats, oils, and grease (FOG), sludges, and hazardous liquids. FOG is a key component of cooking activities that can clog drain pipes if it is allowed to move down the drains. FOG can be mitigated by installing a grease trap in the outflow pipes. So, an appropriate liquid waste removal method needs to be used to treat the liquid waste. While sewage causes death of oxygen-dependent organisms like microbes and plants due to high acidity and high concentration of heavy metals, the organisms capable of thriving in anaerobic environments thrive in the sewage wastewater. Also, wastewater is generally warmer than the ambient temperature as warm or hot water may be present in it due to showers in homes, and industrial processes. Liquid waste can be divided into below four categories: Sanitary sewage Industrial sewage Storm sewage, and Mixed sewage (a mixture of all) Sanitary sewage, also called domestic sewage, contains human waste and wash water from homes. It contains 99.9% of water and only 0.1% of impurities. In other words, if one litre of sanitary domestic waste is allowed to evaporate, it will only leave about 1 gm of solids behind. Industrial sewage removal and treatment Industrial sewage is generated from manufacturing processes, and usually carries a variety of chemical
compounds. It usually has a higher amount of biological oxygen demand (BOD), and total suspended solids (TSS), and the composition of industrial waste is source dependent. BOD is the measurement of the quantity of oxygen utilised in the respiration of bacteria to oxidise organic materials in sewage, and for subsequent oxidation of cellular components generated from the wastes. However, chemical oxygen demand (COD) test may be conducted by the waste management company which relies on the chemical oxidation of organic materials, rather than biological disintegration. Presence of hazardous waste is one of the key characteristics that distinguish industrial waste from domestic waste. Stormwater or storm sewage is surface runoff caused by rainfall. It carries organics, suspended and dissolved solids, and other substances. During the rainy season, an enormous volume of stormwater may affect residential and commercial establishments in Australia. Special regulations for liquid waste and hazardous waste There are broad waste restrictions and special regulations for liquid waste removal and industrial cleaning services, and disposal of hazardous waste. Solo Resource Recovery uses appropriate liquid waste removal methods for treating liquid waste, depending upon the type of liquid waste, and the treatment goal. Sedimentation method is used for non- hazardous liquid waste. The straightforward method does not require the use of any sophisticated machinery, rather it uses gravity to separate solid waste from liquid waste. The
liquid is left undisturbed in a large tank, known as sedimentation basin, where solid waste settles down, which can be removed and disposed of. Dewatering, root zoning, and composting Dewatering is used for liquid waste removal wherein water is extracted from liquid waste until only solid waste remains. Centrifugation can be used to separate solid contaminants from liquid waste that contains physically distinct components. Sludges and slurry can be filtered using belt
filter presses. Root zoning liquid waste removal uses both biological and physical mechanisms. The wastewater is treated in many stages, and a series of filtration techniques. It’s a very environment-friendly method of liquid waste removal, as it consumes only 20% of the energy of a normal sewage treatment facility. Composting method is used by the waste management company to decompose liquid organic waste, by placing it in a pit for an extended period of time. Once water has been removed, solid waste that is rich in nitrogen, potassium, and salt, can be converted into compost.
