Wastewater analysis

Establish the wastewater characteristics and loading needed to define an appropriate treatment process.

Start with the incoming water

Wastewater composition, average and peak flow, seasonal variation and operating patterns shape the treatment brief. We review available analyses and agree a sampling programme; laboratory testing is arranged with a suitable laboratory within the agreed scope.

Information to prepare

Site use, wastewater sources and discharge patterns.
Available laboratory reports and flow measurements.
The intended discharge, reuse or downstream process.

Stage deliverables

A source-data brief, a list of parameters still to be established and engineering observations for design. The analytical programme and laboratory requirements are agreed for the individual project.

Let’s start with your water challenge.

Tell us where the project is, what you are treating and what the water needs to become.
