Industry Overview

Industrial wastewater contains complex pollutants from chemical, textile, food processing, pharmaceutical, and heavy industry operations. To stay compliant and reduce treatment costs, factories need accurate, real-time monitoring of key water quality parameters such as pH, ORP, COD, Turbidity, Conductivity, DO, and more.

Common Water Quality Challenges in Industrial Wastewater Plants

  • pH fluctuations affecting chemical dosing and compliance
  • Discontinuous DO monitoring leads to high aeration energy consumption.
  • ORP (Organic Reproductive Technology) has difficulty in precisely controlling the dosage of the drug.
  • Turbidity variations affecting suspended solids control
  • Manual testing leads to inconsistent results and delayed responses.Manual sampling delays and high labor cost

Online Monitoring Solution For Industrial Wastewater

How To Solve

We provide a complete online monitoring solution covering: pretreatment → process control → emission monitoring.

This includes: online pH/ORP regulation and control, online COD/TOC/ammonia nitrogen monitoring, online turbidity and suspended solids monitoring, chemical dosing and automated control, data logging, trend analysis, and remote monitoring. This solution addresses key issues faced by industrial wastewater treatment plants, such as discontinuous data, slow manual testing, high compliance pressure, and chaotic management.

  • Solution 1

    pH & ORP Online Control

    Real-time pH and ORP measurement ensures accurate neutralization and stable chemical reactions. Suitable for acid-base dosing, oxidation tanks, and neutralization basins.

  • Solution 2

    COD / TOC Continuous Monitoring

    Continuous organic load monitoring helps prevent overload shocks, reduce treatment costs, and meet discharge limits.

  • Solution 3

    Turbidity / SS Monitoring

    Turbidity and suspended solids (SS) sensors ensure sedimentation efficiency and help detect early solid carry-over issues.

Process Flow & Monitoring Points

Industrial wastewater treatment typically involves equalization, pH adjustment, coagulation, biological processing, clarification, and final discharge. Each stage requires continuous online monitoring to control dosing, stabilize process performance, and ensure regulatory compliance.
