Aid Descaling Of Utilities Like Cooling Tower , Chillers And Boilers
Achieving Higher Cycles Of Concentrations (CoC) With Reduced Risk Of Corrosion, Scaling ANd Fouling Tendancies
Utility Water Challenges
Higher Utility Blowdown Frequencies
- Increased load to ETP
Reduced Efficiencies and Degrading Performance of Cooling Towers and Boilers
- Lower temperature difference (ΔT)
Impaired Heat Transfer because of Biofilm and Fouling
- Development of Organic and Inorganic complexes, micro-algae and fungi, micro-organisms forming a slime layer over time
Increased Consumption and Costs of Dosing Chemicals
- pH Adjusters, Phosphonate Sequestrates, Polymer dispersants, Algaecides and Biocides; which in turn also increases the ORP within the cooling water system
Continuous damage to Cooling tower and Reduced Life
- Depletion of capital investment and higher overall operational costs
The Solution- Boson Alchemies Utility WTPs
Boson Alchemies Utility Wastewater Treatment Plants (UWTPs) are innovative and truly versatile systems for the effective treatment of a diverse list of objectives and problem statements. Our UWTPs are continuous, totally compact, skid-based and self-contained, covered, single-piece packaged system for inline Utility wastewater treatment.
Ours uses an electrochemical oxidation process where we electrolytically oxidize a sacrificial anode to release metal ions that form coagulants, destabilizing contaminants, and breaking emulsions. This coagulation forms flocculants that float to the surface for removal. These floating sludge layer can be easily skimmed off by deployment of our Enhanced Dissolve Air Flotation (DAF). Optionally the entire sludge slurry can be fed to either a plate and frame type Filter Press or a Dewatering Screw Press
The final output from our UWTP plant is as good as regular utility water and it can directly be re-used in cooling systems, irrigation, boiler requirement among other uses. Our cutting-edge, ‘off-the-shelf’ modular UWTPs are tailored to end-user requirements to offer environmentally friendly, legislation-compliant solutions that are simple to install, easy to operate and economical to maintain. The unique design of our reactor have no internal mechanical moving parts apart from pumps which mean the plant requires minimal maintenance and supervision, making it easy to run. Boson Alchemies is diligent in ensuring our customers’ sites are environmentally compliant and that the right level of protection is in place.

Benefits and Advantages
Outlined below are some notable advantages of incorporating Futura modular Water Treatment Plants (WTPs) in Utility Water Treatment:
- Keep OPEX low and Operating Efficiencies High
- Simplest, Easiest, Ultra-Compact and Lowest Cost of Treatment for Utility
Wastewater (up to 2500 ppm COD) - Removes any Dust, Silica and Fine Particulate matter
- Inhibits Micro-Organisms growth and Biofouling
- Reduces Hardness & Turbidity by over 60% and 90% respectively
- Enables on-site treatment without necessitating treatment in the ETP
- Removes any Heavy Metals / Metallic impurities
- Reduces ORP levels to maintain low rate of scaling and fouling
- Reduces Dissolved Gases, Odour and Colour in the water stream if any
- Effectively Reduces Corrosion and Scaling in Downstream Equipment / Longer Life
- Removal of Organic & Inorganic Complexes and Bio-Polymers
- Maintain High Water Efficiencies and Increased Performance of Cooling Towers &
Boilers
Capacities & Models
WTPs are fully modular and skid-mounted units requiring an ultra-low footprint. Our typical 5000 LPH capacity requires a 3 m X 6 m footprint on the floor. Module capacities range from 1000 LPH up to 10000 LPH. All modules are standard designs, pre-fabricated, assembled, pre-wired at our workshop and delivered at your sites.
Boson Alchemies Wastewater Treatment Plants (WTPs) are renowned for their effectiveness in addressing the issue of recycling and reusing utility water. By implementing Boson Alchemies WTPs, it’s possible to reduce the burden on Effluent Treatment Plants (ETPs) that typically handle utility water.
