Myande Undertakes Pesticide Waste Water Evaporation & Crystallization Project

On September 7th, 2016, Myande signed a contract with Dezhou Luba Fine Chemical Co., Ltd, by which Myande will supply Luba with a three-effect evaporation & crystallization facility to process all waste water generated from Luba’s pesticide production plant to yield 3,000 ton per annum industrial refined salt as value-adding by-product.

This evaporation & crystallization facility to be supplied by Myande will enable Luba to extract salt content from the waste water and achieve zero-effluent effect by recycling all condensation water from the evaporation and crystallization process.

This project will represent another major breakthrough of Myande’s wastewater treatment technology particularly developed for treating wastewater generated in pesticide production plants.

Tips of MVR Technology in High-salt Wastewater Treatment

In wastewater treatment industry, mechanical vapor recompression evaporation technology (MVR for short) aims to reduce environmental impact and reduce energy consumption by recycling and reuse of secondary steam generated by evaporators. The working principle of MVR in this application is that secondary steam from evaporators is compressed to increase its temperature and pressure. The pressed steam then enters the heating chamber and functions as the heating steam. After the material absorbs the heat, the generated secondary heat will be recycled and reused again as heat source for further evaporation cycle. Thus it reduces consumption of steam in the complete evaporation system and fresh steam is only required for starting up the evaporators.

At present, MVR evaporator is widely used in various fields, including evaporation and concentration of fruit juice, corn syrup, pharmaceuticals and other processes. Myande has successfully applied MVR to achieve zero-affluent result in treating non-organic wastewater with high concentration of salt as well as organic waste water.

In recent years, development of biochemical technology and successful separation, cultivation and treatment of halotolerant and halophilic bacteria have made it possible to treat industrial wastewater containing salt by biochemical methods. However, halotolerant and halophilic bacteria have high requirements for the ambient conditions and can deal with wastewater with limited salt content. The running cost is also high. MVR evaporation technology on the other hand can not only reduce COD figure in wastewater with high salt content but also separate the soluble salts from the industrial wastewater so that the water can be recycled.
