Raw Water Treatment / Cooling Tower Makeup
Steel manufacturing relies on water for various processes, including cooling and material handling. Depending on the source—whether river, lake, or well—pretreatment may be necessary to ensure water quality. In many cases, this involves clarification with or without filtration. These treatment systems are straightforward, and UCC has the expertise to design and supply solutions tailored to steel industry needs.
Dewatering
Effective dewatering is essential for steel plants to manage process water efficiently. Plate and frame filter presses, centrifuges, and belt presses are commonly used to remove solids from wastewater streams. UCC has extensive experience with these technologies and ensures the right solution is selected for each application.
Overall Site Water Balance Optimization, Reuse, and ZLD
Water management in steel manufacturing goes beyond influent and effluent treatment—it requires a strategic approach to minimize usage and maximize reuse. A comprehensive site water balance tracks water quality throughout the facility, identifying opportunities for recycling and reuse. UCC provides the expertise to optimize water use, implement Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) strategies, and enhance sustainability in steel production.
