Market Overview
Thailand is Southeast Asia’s textile manufacturing hub, with major production centers in Bangkok, Rayong, and Prachinburi. Dyeing and finishing processes generate high-COD, high-color wastewater requiring advanced chemical treatment.
Key Wastewater Challenges
| Parameter | Typical | Discharge Limit |
|---|---|---|
| COD | 500-5,000 mg/L | < 300 mg/L |
| TSS | 200-2,000 mg/L | < 50 mg/L |
| pH | 4-10 | 6-9 |
Recommended Treatment Chemicals
| Chemical | Role | Dosage | Removal |
|---|---|---|---|
| PAC | Coagulant | 50-300 mg/L | 30-55% COD |
| PAM | Flocculant | 0.5-5 mg/L | TSS 90%+ |
| Activated Carbon | Adsorbent | 50-500 mg/L | 20-80% COD |
Treatment Process Flow
- Equalization & pH adjustment
- Coagulation (PAC + PAM)
- Sedimentation/DAF
- Biological treatment
- Polishing & disinfection
- Sludge dewatering
Regulatory Compliance
Thailand: COD < 300 mg/L, TSS < 50 mg/L, pH 6-9 (PCD standards)
