Hydrogen sulphide gas is a common by-product in sewage treatment systems. The gas is not only recognised for its noxious smell and toxicity to workers but also can corrode pipes and sewage treatment facilities at significant cost to operators. Each year, corrosion from hydrogen sulphide and sulphuric acid is estimated to cost US sewage treatment operators $14 billion. Until now, operators were restricted in their choice of treatment method, with current methods either unable to treat high concentrations of hydrogen sulphide or often leaving treated materials unsuitable for uses such as agriculture. GRT Water Services introduces Zero Water Treatment, a magnesium-based polymer solution that effectively limits the formation of hydrogen sulphide gas. By increasing the pH levels of treated materials, Zero Water Treatment reduces odours and risks for on-site workers, while limiting corrosion to sewerage systems. GRT Water Services offers cost-effective, turn-key solutions, offering dosing facilities to local government and industrial sewerage system operators and is suitable for aerobic and anaerobic treatment systems.
