Biothane, a global leader in anaerobic technologies and part of Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies, has displayed its water treatment technologies at China Paper 2012 in Beijing in September.
The company showcased technologies such as the Biobed EGSB system, not only treat wastewater but also reduce pollution and recover energy to achieve minimal environmental impact.
Its anaerobic innovations use less energy and chemicals, occupy less space, and incur lower sludge handing costs, when compared to aerobic alternatives.
Besides a strong presence in the pulp and paper sector, Biothane technologies are also widely adopted by Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA) manufacturers.
In August 2012, Biothane Asia Pacific sealed an agreement with BP Zhuhai Chemical Company Limited (BP Zhuhai), a subsidiary of the global BP group, to supply key equipment for the novel iobed Advanced EGSB system.
The high performance wastewater treatment technology is used for processing highly concentrated effluents, also commonly observed in the pulp and paper industry.
