Wastewater treatment - Wastewater treatment

Japanese: 廃水処理 - はいすいしょり(英語表記)wastewater treatment
Wastewater treatment - Wastewater treatment
The process of removing harmful and polluting substances from wastewater discharged from factories and other businesses. In order to protect the quality of public waters, wastewater from factories and other businesses must be purified to standards set by the Water Pollution Control Act and prefectural ordinances before being discharged. For this reason, various treatment methods have been developed depending on the type and content of the wastewater, but they can be broadly divided into four categories: solid-liquid separation, physicochemical treatment, biological treatment, and thermal treatment. The purpose of solid-liquid separation is to separate and recover suspended solids in the wastewater.
