One key item our customers have highlighted in their feedback and complimented our performance on, is the steady and reliable supply of water treatment chemicals we have available. Our extensive network of manufacturing sites is built with this customer need in mind.
Nicodemus Mautsa and his team leave no stone unturned when seeking exactly the right solutions for mining customers across the diverse and mineral-rich continent of Africa. Kemira’s chemical solutions help customers to improve their process efficiency and enable huge savings.
Stormwater flows can present big challenges for wastewater treatment plants, with huge water volumes needing to be processed in a very short space of time. Chemically Enhanced Primary Treatment solutions help operators to tackle acute stormwater flows efficiently and cost-effectively without any major investments.
To help water treatment plant operators do their job, even in turbulent times, is of crucial importance. This also means that sufficient treatment chemistries, logistics and labor must be available.
Serving the wastewater treatment needs of a rapidly growing population has presented challenges for Stockholm Water. With one of its treatment plants undergoing an upgrade and another close to full capacity, the company is benefiting from Kemira’s expertise to increase capacity with the help of chemical pre-treatment.
SWISS KRONO, a manufacturer of wood-based materials, wanted to safeguard the health and safety of its employees by disinfecting the wastewater generated at their largest production plant. Read how we helped them with the Kemira KemConnect solution.
Sludge dewatering can be a tricky operation due to varying sludge composition. A significant share of the operational costs of municipal wastewater treatment but also some industries is in sludge disposal. An investment into improved sludge treatment can bring significant cost-efficiencies.
It is hard to overstate the importance of fresh water. Everything we drink and eat – meat or vegetable – requires fresh water. And though many do not realize it, every source of energy we have uses fresh water at some stage of the process.
