We develop efficient solutions to meet the particular wastewater treatment needs of small towns, up to 2.000 population equivalent (PE), and medium-sized towns, up to 4.000 PE.
Other issues deserve special consideration such as isolated population and seasonality. Some towns multiply their population in summer, significantly increasing the volume of wastewater, with the added problem of summer water shortage.
Within its range of plants, Salher distributes wastewater treatment systems for small communities up to 50 PE for family homes, rural hotels and campsites, among others.
Large quantities of water are used in many parts of a touristic resort: kitchens, heating and air conditioning, toilet tanks, swimming pools, flushing water, gardens and laundry.
If there is a place where reuse has a remarkable economic and ecological value is in the leisure and tourism sector, the large producers of effluents. Hotels are major producers of gray water, which can have a second life in the irrigation of green areas, toilets flushing and surface washing.
Thanks to the custom design of its urban water treatment plants, Salher is a great ally for isolated hotels and resorts in remote areas of high mountain, with practically no precipitation or heavy insulation.
Given its high volume, the backwash waters of municipal swimming pools can be used together with rainwater for irrigation of large garden areas, washing of streets, washing of municipal vehicles and in flushing of toilets and urinals.
Hospitals, healthcare centers and clinics require specialized treatments for their discharges, due to the potentially dangerous nature of their effluent. As a result, hospitals’ wastewater treatment constitutes a higher priority than that of the average household consumption.
In addition to bacteria and antibiotic-resistant organisms, in hospital wastewater there are harmful substances such as mercury, anesthetics, disinfectants, antibiotics. This is the reason why it is necessary to evaluate the polluting load in the daily wastewater flow of hospitals.
Besides sewage treatments, Salher supplies a wider range of specific treatments, such as ultrafiltration, lamellar decantation, physicochemical, disinfection treatment and UV treatment. These will be customized to provide supplementary safety measures in compliance with the discharge requirements of sewage water.
Salher’ equipment to treat effluent issued from hygienic and sanitary waste of camps are designed taking into account that consumption depends on seasonal, weekly, daily and hourly variations.
These camps are usually located far away from cities without access to basic services. For these particular cases, specific solutions are studied.
The prefabricated treatment plants of Salher can be located in remote areas of cities without access to basic services.
The solutions provided are designed for easy maritime and road transport. The equipment are easy to use with a low maintenance cost, while the productivity depends on the needs of each situation.
In the context of water shortage and the implementation of ever higher safety standards, Salher has created solutions that save resources and energy.
Big water consumers such as hotels and resorts, golf courses, residential communities, car washing systems should have solutions for the reuse of their water discharge.
To achieve responsible use and consumption of water resources, Salher designs and manufactures grey water (from sinks and showers) and rainwater systems to enable a responsible use and a consumption of water resources.
Filtration and ultrafiltration technologies allow irrigation of gardens and green areas with reuse water, as well as sprinkler irrigation or the recharge of toilet tanks.

There are several treatment solutions depending on the defined strategy, the type of project (wastewater treatment, reuse) and the discharge of treated water.
Depending on the flow, the pumping station can be prefabricated or a civil engineering structure.Salher tanks are manufactured in GFRP according to the Filament Winding method and have the following advantages:
Once the treated water is ready for discharge, we recommend to reduce the maximum volume of sludge. To this end, several treatments are available:
The most important environmental problem of this type of industry, apart from the consumption of water and energy, is the discharge of wastewater, both for its volume and for its organic pollutant load.
The industrial wastewater treatment and its subsequent reuse for multiple applications contribute to thequalityimprovement of this critical raw material and to its preservation.
The parameters of industrial wastewater issued from food industries are very variable and depend on the processes and activities carried out. Salher provides global solutions and recommendations about the most appropriate treatment.
Salher supplies treatments of wastewater issued from the agricultural industry, as well as fishing and fish processing industry, sugar industry, meat industry (slaughterhouses and meat processing), food packaging and processing, catering sector, bakery and chocolate industries, confectionery and sweets factories.
In the beverage and spirit industry, the discharges show an extreme irregularity in terms of flows, wastewater composition, contaminants concentration and production seasonality.
水是生产beverag基本原料es, thus Salher analyzes the most convenient treatment according to the production volume, manufacturing methods and the outlet parameters required.
These analysis tasks are performed both for the manufacturing process water and for the discharge wastewater.
The production of one liter of wine requires between 30 and 250 liters of water. Wine discharges are not toxic, however, they have an important pollutant effect due to the high organic load.
The wineries discharges can be variable – volume and pollutant concentration – due to the seasonal nature of the production (up to 60% of the spillage occurs during the period of harvesting and transfer of the wine), the volume of production of each winery and the operations carried out such as processing, ageing, storage and bottling.
Energy and Chemistry are interrelated with Water. To generatefuelandelectricity, through extraction of coal, oil and gas, and through geothermal, hydroelectric, nuclear and to a lesser degree, solar and wind plants, the water consumption footprint is significant. Needless to mention that the extraction, processing and transformation of raw materialsalsorequire a major water expenditure.
