Eco Chito removes toxic heavy metals from Industrial waste water.

Among the various pollutants, the heavy metals such as Pb, Cd, Hg, Cr, Zn etc. are in priority list of various environmental protection agencies. The toxic heavy metals are the main pollutants  in  environment especially  in air, soil,  and water  which is  producing  objectionable effects, impairing the environmental welfare, reducing the quality of life and growing threat to humanity that  may eventually cause death too.

There are hundreds of sources of heavy metal pollution, including the coal, natural gas, paper, chlor-alkali industries and the untreated effluents from  the  industries  leads  to  severe  water  pollution.  The  toxicological  criteria  and bioaccumulating  tendency of  heavy  metals from  industrial  wastewater  end  up  as permanent additions to the environment which poses a serious threat to human health and ecosystems.

Unfortunately, all the water treatment techniques have drawbacks including sludge production, cost and maintenance problems. When compared to all other methods, the most promising method for toxic heavy metal  ion removal is the  adsorption process which is  producing superior effluent suitable  for reuse  without other  pollutants, flexibility  in  design  and  operation,  effectiveness, regeneration  easiness  and  inexpensive  nature.  Due  to  these  advantages,  the  adsorption process is utilized in the treatment purpose.

Eco Chito can be used as  for environmental protection, it  can coagulate organic compounds, chelate toxic heavy metals, remove odors, adsorb dyes, and adsorb polychlorinated bipheny  from industrial wastewater.
