According to DIN 4046, process water is defined as „water used for commercial, industrial, agricultural or similar purposes with differing qualities and properties, which may include potable water quality“.

The requirements of the users can be chemically above or considerably below those of the potable water regulations. Thus, it is not possible to formulate any generally valid directives for the quality of process water, but only application-specific requirements.

Accordingly, the quality demands on process water can be vastly different in the different application areas. Moreover, the demands depend on the production methods of the respective industrial branches and on the quality requirements on the goods produced.

For reasons of operation safety and hygiene, the following properties are generally demanded from process water:

- It should be odourless, free of solids, and clear.

- It should be compatible with the raw material.

- It must be hygienically safe.

Definition „Production water“

11.06.02

In commercial and industrial production processes, water is generally used as:

Raw material, e.g.•Brewing water, mineral water•Water for ammonia production

Means of transport, e.g.•Rinsing water (turnip rinsing water)•Conveying medium (hydraulic ore extraction)

Auxiliary agent, e.g.•Cooling agent•Dissolving agent•Washing agent•Energy carrier (steam, water-power)•Safety agent (fire extinguishing water)•Potable water (staff water)

Operational water applications

11.06.02

In future: Development of quality standards for water for re-use and further processing?

Further development of the processing technology!Utilisation of municipal wastewater as production water?

allows for the avoidance of

waste, wastewater, and hazardous substances in the productioninstead of

Separation, treatment, or disposal in the substance streams leaving the process

Wastewater that is not produced in the first placedoes not have to be treated later on

Reduction of the water amounts and of the discharged substance streams decrease the pollutant load discharged in to the

environment and thus reduce the costs for the companies

1. Taking stock

(1) Creation of a production schemeDetermination of all INFLUENTS (INPUT) and EFFLUENTS (OUTPUT)e.g. locations where water, wastewater and pollutant loads are producedif necessary, installation of water and energy meters (water balance, energy balance, substance balance (auxiliary agents, substances for utilisation))

(2) Determination of the energy and water consumption at all operation locations

(3) Calculation of specific consumptions and amounts, e.g.:1. Spec. water consumption = water consumption/production unit (m³/t or m³/l)2. Spec. wWastewater production = water production – process water – evaporation and water input from the product)/production unit (m³/t or m³/l)

(4) Determination of the specific pollutant loads1. Taking of samples and analysis2. Amount x concentration = load

Paper mill Schoellershammer

The paper mill Schoellershammer is the only company in Germany producing corrugated cardboard and fine paper – in separate plants, but still in one company.

The inevitable wastewater, which carries a high BOD load, is preliminarily treated in an anaerobic wastewater treatment unit (Anaerobic Area) and then discharged into the municipal wastewater treatment plant (Aerobic Area).

The wastewater from the fine paper production is directly discharged to the wastewater treatment plant (aerobic activation method) withough re-use or

Fresh water demand: 1.200.000 m³/a !

In order to save fresh water and to reduce the pollutant load, it was considered to combine the water streams of the two production lines.

The environmentally relevant investment costs for the projects amounted to 700.000 € It was supported by a federal grant of 100.000 €.

Project:

The anaerobically pre-treated wastewater from the corrugated cardboard production is then treated aerobically and re-used with no more than half of the wastewater from the fine paper production which has been filtered in a gravel filter in a so called „cross-circulation“ .

Targets:

• Saving of 50% of fresh water in the corrugated cardboard production.• Reduction of the BOD load in the wastewater => Reduction of the• Reduction of the settleable solids => wastewater fees

• Closing of the circulation up to 100 % possible, in case of low paper quality (loads partly remain in the product)

• Concentrations increase in case of circulation constriction

• Specific loads decrease in case of circulation constriction

• Problems with increasing closing of the circlation– Micro-biological oxygen consumption– Anaerobic conversion processes– Corrosion– Accumulation of disturbing substances

• Saving of surplus water of 330 m³/d

• Reduction of the wastewater amount from

76.000 m³/a to 409 m³/a

• Reduction of the fountain water extraction for coolingfor cooling from 348 m³/d to 2 m³/d

• Improved keeping of the temperature and thussaving of energy for the pumps

• Lower filter rinsing water demand

• Investment 237.000 €/Subsidy 100.000 €

• The water supply in the FRG is higher than the water consumption

• The utilisation factor depends on the respective industrial branches

• PIUS is both ecologically and economically sensible• The methods for water or wastewater processing for circulation must be

examined individually for every application case

• On an European scale, currently the Best Reference Documents are being created, in which the BVT technologies are compiled with concrete data; some have already been compiled. These documents will serve to promote PIUS world-wide.
