RedBox for Chemical Industries

Our client had a complex wastewater stream with chemicals, adhesives and minerals. The traditional approach, using flocculants and polymers and then air-drying the sludge, turned out to be less tenable. Bottlenecks were high chemical costs, poorly dewaterable sludge resulting in high disposal costs and a high chlorine content in the effluent.

RedBox offered a smart, cost-effective solution. Our RedBox electrocoagulation technology purifies wastewater without the use of flocculants or polymers. During a test with our mobile pilot installation, the effect was immediately visible: reduction of the sludge volume by a factor of three. This immediately meant significant cost savings on sludge disposal and the purchase of flocculants and polymers. The effluent quality also improved considerably.

Based on this successful pilot, Morselt designed and built a fully automated RedBox installation, precisely tailored to the customer's processes and with an optimal payback period.

The result for the customer:
• Drastically reduced sludge disposal and chemical costs
• A stable and automated purification process
• Cleaner effluent with lower chlorine content
• A future-proof solution that is scalable and reliable.

RedBox offers more than just water purification: it is a smart investment that reduces operational costs, improves environmental performance and prepares companies for the future.
