India's most advanced electrochemical effluent treatment plant — Electro-Fenton + Electro-Coagulation + DAF + UF in a compact skid. Treats high-strength kitchen, industrial & commercial effluent in 30–60 minutes vs 8–24 hours for biological systems. COD < 50 mg/L. Oil & Grease < 2 mg/L. 10 KLD to 1 MLD. 6-week delivery.
A 10-stage treatment train engineered for high-strength effluent from commercial kitchens, food processing, pharma, textiles, and vehicle washing. No biological sludge. No 2-week start-up. No aeration tanks. Just chemistry, current, and membranes.
SUSBIO IONTREAT is an advanced electrochemical effluent treatment plant (ETP) engineered for high-strength industrial and commercial wastewater — particularly where conventional biological systems fail or are impractical. Kitchen effluent, food processing wastewater, and similar streams contain emulsified oils, detergents, refractory organics, and fluctuating loads that overwhelm biological processes. IONTREAT handles them in 30–60 minutes using electricity, not bacteria.
The core is a proprietary integrated reactor combining Electro-Fenton (EFn), Electro-Coagulation (EC), Electro-Oxidation (EO), and Electro-Flotation (EF) — four electrochemical mechanisms in a single compact unit. Pre-treatment removes coarse solids and free oil. Post-treatment uses DAF for solid-liquid separation and UF membrane for final polishing to reuse grade. The entire SUSBIO equipment scope arrives as a skid — civil tanks are by the buyer's contractor to SUSBIO's supplied drawings.
IONTREAT replaces the sprawling multi-tank biological ETP with a linear 10-stage electrochemical train. Each stage is precisely engineered — HRTs measured in minutes, not hours.
Coarse food particles, plastics, and debris removed before reaching downstream units. Prevents pump and reactor fouling.
Gravity separation removes free-floating fats, oils, and grease (FOG). Reduces O&G load by 40–60% before electrochemical treatment.
10 hr HRT buffer homogenises flow and pollutant load. Prevents hydraulic shock to the EC reactor. RCC civil — by buyer.
Ferrous sulphate (FeSO₄) and hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) dosed to activate Electro-Fenton advanced oxidation in the reactor.
Integrated electrochemical reactor. Four simultaneous mechanisms degrade organics, emulsified oil, colour, odour, and surfactants. HRT: 190 seconds.
Residual oxidation reactions complete. Soda ash dosed to neutralise post-EC acidity. Target pH 7.0–7.5 for downstream coagulation.
PAC (80 mg/L) and PAM (5 mg/L) dosed. Fractal flocculator forms dense, stable, floatable flocs for efficient DAF separation.
Microbubble-assisted flotation (100% recycle ratio, 3.5 bar pressure). Removes flocculated solids, residual O&G, and colloids. HRT: 30 min.
Three PVDF UF modules (0.01–0.03 micron). 95% recovery. Removes residual suspended solids, colloids, and microorganisms. Backwash system included.
Optional hypochlorite dosing for stored treated water. Outlet safe for gardening, flushing, and floor washing.
The AGEIO EC cell integrates four electrochemical processes simultaneously, treating what biological systems cannot.
Fe²⁺ + H₂O₂ → •OH radicals degrade refractory organics, surfactants, and complex molecules. Breaks down emulsified oil that gravity traps miss.
Electrode dissolution releases Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺ which hydrolyse to metal hydroxides. Destabilises colloids, adsorbs dissolved organics, and forms dense flocs.
Electrode surface generates reactive oxygen species. Partially oxidises dissolved COD, reduces colour, and provides supplementary disinfection effect.
Cathodic hydrogen microbubbles attach to EC flocs, increasing buoyancy. Rapidly floats and separates generated flocs — no sludge settling required.
Biological ETPs are the default — but for kitchen wastewater with emulsified FOG, detergents, and fluctuating loads, they routinely fail. IONTREAT's electrochemical process was designed precisely for these conditions.
| Aspect | SUSBIO IONTREAT (EC–DAF–UF) | Conventional Biological ETP |
|---|---|---|
| Footprint | Very low — 3m × 5m skid (10 KLD) | High — multiple tanks, aeration, clarifier |
| HRT | 30–60 minutes | 8–24 hours |
| Civil construction | Minimal — equalisation + storage tanks only | Extensive — aeration tank, clarifier, sludge pit |
| Start-up time | Immediate — no bacterial seeding | 2–4 weeks for biofilm/sludge establishment |
| Emulsified oil & grease | Excellent — EFn breaks emulsified FOG | Poor — emulsified FOG inhibits biomass |
| Detergent & surfactants | Effective — EFn/EO degrades surfactants | Causes foaming, sludge instability |
| Fluctuating/shock loads | Highly stable — electrochemical adapts | Sensitive — shock loads kill biomass |
| Operator dependency | Low — semi-automatic PLC control | High — regular biological monitoring required |
| Odour & vector risk | Minimal — enclosed skid system | Present — open tanks, sludge odour |
| Skid placement | Can sit on top of equalisation tank | Requires dedicated plant room |

IONTREAT's outlet consistently meets CPCB norms for inland surface water discharge and NGT 2019 reuse standards. Electrochemical disinfection during treatment means the UF outlet is generally safe for non-potable reuse without additional chlorination.

Example based on a 10 KLD IONTREAT ETP treating commercial kitchen wastewater (COD 2,000 mg/L, O&G 500 mg/L, 20 hr/day operation). Actual costs depend on capacity, influent quality, and operating hours — finalized during commissioning. Electricity cost assumes ₹8.50/kWh grid rate.
Total daily O&M: ₹386.65/day. Total daily O&M cost for a 10 KLD unit. Covers chemicals and electricity only — excludes operator labour (minimal due to semi-automatic PLC control) and periodic maintenance consumables. Acetic acid for UF CIP cleaning is occasional, not daily.
IONTREAT was engineered specifically for the gaps that conventional biological ETPs leave open — oil & grease, shock loads, fast start-up, and minimal footprint.
Electrochemical process generates inorganic sludge only — no active biomass to maintain, no sludge return, no bulking, no foaming.
0 bioSwitch on and treat. No 2–4 week biofilm establishment. Critical for commercial kitchens with immediate compliance deadlines.
Day 110× faster than biological systems. Enables compact civil tank design — equalisation and storage volume fits in 4–5 KL of civil tanks.
30 minElectro-Fenton hydroxyl radicals attack emulsified fats and oils that gravity traps and bio-treatment cannot separate. O&G outlet < 2 mg/L reliably.
<2 mg/LCommercial kitchen wastewater is heavily contaminated with surfactants. EFn/EO degrades them without biomass inhibition or foaming.
EFn/EOThe entire SUSBIO skid for a 10 KLD unit fits in 15 m². Can be placed directly on top of the equalisation tank, eliminating additional civil footprint.
15 m²Factory-assembled, tested, and dispatched from Pune within 6 weeks of a commercially clear purchase order with advance payment.
6 wksMultiple IONTREAT units can be combined for flows above 500 KLD up to 1 MLD. Add a unit as load grows — no system downtime required.
+∞Any high-strength effluent stream with elevated FOG, COD, colour, or refractory organics — where biological treatment struggles and space is limited.
Institutional kitchens, corporate canteens, school/college mess. High FOG, detergents, and fluctuating peak loads — the primary design application for IONTREAT.
Combined kitchen + laundry effluent from hospitality properties. Compact skid fits in basement or service yard. No odour from co-located restaurant areas.
High-COD effluent from food processing units, dairy plants, beverage factories. Handles intermittent production schedules and seasonal load variation.
Refractory organics and APIs that resist biodegradation. EFn hydroxyl radical attack degrades pharmaceutical residues more effectively than biological treatment.
High colour, high COD, surfactant-laden wastewater. EC/EO combination is effective for simultaneous colour and COD removal.
Oil, grease, surfactants, and suspended solids from car wash and service station washdown. Recycles wash water for reuse — reducing freshwater consumption by 70%+.
Combined domestic + clinical effluent. EFn/EO disinfects pathogens; UF produces low-turbidity output. PCPIR zone compliance for medical campuses.
Centralised ETPs serving multiple small units in GIDC, MIDC, and food processing clusters where individual biological ETPs are impractical.
Hostel + kitchen effluent from universities and boarding schools. Weekend dormancy — electrochemical system restarts instantly, no biomass death.
