SEPARATIONS
Apart from extraction, Perspekt solves problems in water treatment and particulate separation processes:
  • Water treatment and planning. If you have a treatment problem, the solution may come from a long hard look by an outsider, and need not necessarily involve high-powered and data-hungry software.
  • Separation processes for and by  particulate systems. Take advantage of Perspekt's unrivalled general knowledge of separation processes. Particulate systems, fluidised and spouted beds, drying and crystallization.

WATER AND WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT AND TREATMENT

Confused by new options and bamboozled by vendors? Perspekt Process helps you stand back and look at your real water and wastewater handling needs. Use Perspekt's expertise to become an informed and realistic purchaser. This is normally handled by a focused consultancy assignment.

Perspekt has worked on the treatment of industrial wastewaters, the recovery of metal values and on drinking water treatment.

Depending upon the specifics of the case, Perspekt will examine any of the following issues:
  • Objectives and strategy, water use minimisation and 'pinch' methodology
  • Ultimate disposal options; 'the tail that wags the dog'
  • What must I do? Modify, separate, dispose
  • Mechanical, physical and chemical processes; precipitation, IX and membrane processes
  • Biological processes; aerobic vs. anaerobic
  • Principles and engineering of fixed growth and suspended growth processes
  • Intensified and low-intensity (eg. reed bed) processes
  • Nitrogen, phosphate and sulphate removal
  • High-intensity redox processes
  • Treatments for potable water
  • Sludge handling, treatment and disposal

PARTICULATE SEPARATION PROCESSES

Most separation processes rely on multiphase, ie. particulate, systems.  Perspekt offers help with:
  • Dense gas/solid systems: gas fluidised beds and conveying;
  • Dilute gas solid systems: venturi and vortex scrubbers for high-specification gas clean-up;
  • Liquid-solid systems: crystallization, slurry handling and separation.
