New AMDRO™ Technology Provides Low-Cost Treatment of Acidic Wastewaters

摘要

AMDRO™ technology is a reverse osmosis (RO) process for treatment of acidic wastewater. Recently patented by N.A. Water Systems, a Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies (VWS) company, this process was developed for desalination and reuse of acidic wastewater from industrial operations, acid mine drainage and phosphate pond water generated from fertilizer production. It can also be applied to recover phosphoric acid for use in the fertilizer production process, or to concentrate hydrochloric acid for reuse in steel production.
