Built for these wastewater streams

  • Shipyard & Industrial Wastewater

    UHP cleaning runoff, hull preparation water, and process discharge from active marine facilities.

    Equipment washdown, surface cleaning, and high-volume facility maintenance streams.

  • Paint Booth & Surface Prep

    Coating overspray, blast residues, and surface preparation runoff with high suspended solids.

  • Floor Drain & Bilge Water

    Mixed-stream collection from active yards including oily, particulate, and chemical-bearing flows.

  • High Suspended Solids Streams

    Heavily loaded influent requiring coagulation, flocculation, and multi-stage filtration.
