Eco-Friendly Water Decoloring Agent For Sugar Refinery And Leather Tannery Wastewater In Kenya
Why Kenya needs BWD‑01:
Kenya’s sugar factories and leather tanneries produce dark, high-COD wastewater that often flows untreated into local streams and farmland. Low-cost, easy-to-use treatment solutions are vital for both private and cooperative plants.
Highlights:
-
Targets dark brown coloration from sugarcane and hide-processing wastewater.
-
Can be used with basic sedimentation or flotation units in rural areas.
-
Reduces chemical costs by working at low dosage rates.
-
Enables cleaner reuse for irrigation or livestock applications.
-
Helps industries align with NEMA’s environmental policies.
Product Need:
Agricultural reuse and water pollution are major issues in Kisumu, Eldoret, and Nairobi.
BWD-01 Solution:
-
Targets dark effluents from cane, hides, and organic matter.
-
Improves turbidity and color for irrigation reuse.
-
Low-dosage, easy to apply.
-
Helps meet NEMA guidelines affordably.
Description:
BWD-01 is a high-performance quaternary cationic polymer designed for efficient color removal, flocculation, and COD reduction in various industrial wastewater streams. It is widely used to treat dyestuff-laden wastewater, especially from textile, dyeing, ink, and paper industries. It works effectively with reactive, acid, disperse, direct dyes, and both soluble and insoluble colorants.
Key Benefits:
-
High decolorization efficiency: 50%–99% color removal.
-
COD reduction: Decreases COD by 50%–80%.
-
Wide application range: Suitable for textile, pigment, paper, ink, sugar, and coking wastewater.
-
Excellent flocculation & sedimentation speed.
-
Low sludge production: Generates less sludge than traditional inorganic coagulants.
-
Non-toxic and non-polluting: Free of aluminum, chlorine, and heavy metals.
-
Acts as a retention agent in the paper and pulp manufacturing process.
Application Fields:
-
Wastewater from:
-
Textile & dyeing industries
-
Pigment & ink manufacturing
-
Paper & pulp mills
-
Garbage leachate & coking plants
-
Wood processing & fiber bleaching
-
Sugar production & animal farming
-
-
Useful in paper retention systems as a process additive.
