Treatment of Drinking Water and Industrial Effluent
In line with our ongoing commitment to the environmental improvement, TANAC has developed an ecological range of coagulants/flocculants for the treatment of drinking water and industrial effluents.
Branded TANFLOC, these products comprise modified tannins and are essentially vegetable in origin. In terms of water treatment, compared with their traditional counterparts, TANFLOC products have the additional advantage of being completely biodegradable, being totally digested during the various biological stages of the process. Thanks to their versatily, TANFLOC products can also be used for the treatment of all sorts of water and industrial effluents.
CASE STUDY - Slaughterhouse
The effluent derived of slaughterhouses has as contaminant greasy material, oils, proteins and suspended solids. The objective of the coagulation / flocculation is to reduce oils and greases and as consequence the removal of COD.

Benefits:
- Reduction in the consumption and handling of chemical products.
- More efficient removal of COD
- More efficient removal of oils and greases.
- Obtention of organic sludge without restriction of use in land farming system.
- Man-power rationalization.
- Usage of product compatible with the posterior biological treatment.
CASE STUDY - Petroleum Refinery

The effluent produced in Petroleum Refineries presents as main contaminants oils / greases and H2S, difficult of being removed using inorganic coagulants. The use of Tanfloc allows a fast oil / water emulsion breakage and an efficient reduction in the H2S levels. As benefits we also have the reduction in the quantity of products involved in the treatment and possibility of the disposal of sludge in land farming system.
CASE STUDY - Rubber

The effluent of a synthetic rubber industry has its origin mainly in the latex coagulation processes. The benefit of the use of Tanfloc is the emulsion breakage, reducing the contents of suspended solids, and also of a substantial reduction in the COD and BOD of the treated effluent.
