Industrial Effluents Recycling with System Designed by Iranian Researchers

“We have designed and produced an advanced wastewater treatment system to return industrial effluents to the initial production line,” Mehdi Tavakoli, the managing director of an Iranian knowledge-based firm told Iranian media after saying that the researchers at their company have focused their studies on wastewater and industrial effluents treatment.

Saying that all the stages of design, construction and installation of these recycling system are done inside the country, he pointed out that the system initiated in his company is able to purify water with a higher recovery rate of 85% to return the wastewater to the consumption cycle.

Tavakoli pointed out that they put into operation their machine in Rafsanjan in Kerman province in the Southeastern part of Iran, while adding that their product was exported to Saudi Arabia.

The managing director of the company went on to explain the advantages that their machinery has over similar types, saying, “One of the advantages of the manufactured system is that we considered different methods for wastewater treatment. Accordingly, the performance of this device is based on the type of pollutants that exist in the wastewater.”

“In addition to purification, the water purifier removes hardness of water, as well as all kinds of germs, bacteria, parasites, salinity, turbidity, color, smell, and bad taste from the wastewater,” the researcher further explained.

Tavakoli continued to refer to the applications of the system in various industries, saying, “For example, the pharmaceutical industry requires very safe water, so our designs are based on pharmaceutical standards, and special standards are also met for the production of drinking water.”

The executive director of the project added that most of the water available in the environment is contaminated, stressing, “Every water that has to be consumed somehow needs to be treated.”
