Water Treatment Systems FAQs

We know how to treat wastewater for whatever your needs are. Here you’ll find the answers to some of the most common questions. If you are ready to discuss your water treatment needs further, our experts are standing by to help.

How do I select a system that best suits my application?

You can start sizing the system by asking these questions:

  • How much water do you need to treat in 24 hrs?
  • Do you discharge to sewer or will you recycle the water?
  • What will you remove from the wastewater?

Mi‑T‑M offers several water treatment systems to meet your needs.

  • Biological (BIO) Treatment Series can be used either as a discharge or closed loop system. Microbes consume constituents in the wastewater turning them into carbon dioxide and water.
  • Mechanical Filtration (WLP & WCP) Series uses sand filtration to remove particulates down to 25 microns. A cartridge filter may be added to filter to 30 microns.
  • Water/Oil Separator (WOS & WCL) Series uses oil attracting (oleophilic) media that separates the oil and floats it to the surface where an oil skimmer sends the oil to a decanter for easy removal.
  • Electro-Coagulation Flocculation (ECF) uses aluminum rods along with electricity. The electricity passes between the rods and contaminates in the water are charged and coagulate with the free metal ions from a sacrificial anode, thus neutralizing the contaminates in the waste stream. This system is used in applications where metal removal is needed.
Is water treatment equipment difficult to maintain?

It all depends on the system. Water oil separators require the least amount of maintenance as only one pump is involved, whereas mechanical filtration requires more (additional pumps, media filters, slide valves, pH/orp meters, and timers). Biological treatment is also a low maintenance system. Standard pump maintenance and coalescing media cleaning, which is necessary in all systems, is all that is required.

Are your systems customizable?

Most of our water treatment systems are meant to be customized. This gives you the ability to work with your customer to design a wash water recycle system that is going to best suit their needs. We offer a variety of treatment technologies as well as wash pad designs to ensure you get the correct system to handle your daily needs.

What are some of the industries that benefit from water treatment systems?

Golf courses, wineries, breweries, food processing plants, trucking companies, construction, and solid waste haulers to name a few. Any industry that uses large amount of water in their everyday processes or industries that clean equipment and vehicles on a regular basis will benefit from a Mi-T-M Water Treatment System.
