TZW experts address all drinking water treatment matters, working on the basis of scientific contexts and taking into account technical and operational aspects in view of technical regulations. Economically viable solutions are devised that offer a high degree of supply reliability. Particular importance is given to the development of new technologies, the adaptation and optimisation of existing treatment systems and processes, and the creation of drinking water supply concepts.
Development of drinking water supply concepts
Changing framework conditions and increasing requirements make it necessary to evaluate future viability and create a strategically redesigned drinking water supply structure. We offer:
Evaluation and optimisation of drinking water treatment methods
Raw water used for the drinking water supply can contain both naturally occurring ingredients and anthropogenic micropollutants, which make it necessary to treat the raw water. We create treatment concepts according to your specific case and support supply companies to implement these concepts.
Process development and optimisation
To maintain the constantly increasing requirements on water quality and plant engineering, treatment plants need to be assessed and aligned. Besides considering the potential to optimise and extend existing plants, we also test and develop new methods.
Quality assurance
The effectiveness of treatment methods depends on both the operating conditions and the materials used. Impeccable drinking water quality also requires verification of the metrological monitoring and quality control of the used materials.
Additional fields of work
Test facilities for diverse treatment technologies on a pilot and laboratory scale
Test methods to test the quality of filtering materials
Online measurement devices to monitor pilot and industrial scale plants (turbidity, particles, nanoparticles)
