Sugar Refinery – Cilegon
PT Lautan Organo Water successfully designed, supplied, and commissioned a 650 m³/day wastewater treatment plant for a sugar refinery company in Cilegon. Completed in 2018, the facility was engineered to treat wastewater with an organic loading of approximately 5.7 tons COD/day, providing a reliable and efficient solution for managing high-strength industrial effluent.
To efficiently handle the high-strength wastewater generated from the refining process, the treatment system utilizes an Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) reactor as the primary biological treatment stage. The UASB technology effectively reduces the influent COD load while generating a stable and energy-efficient treatment process.
Following anaerobic treatment, a Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor (MBBR) system provides further biological degradation of residual organic pollutants, ensuring reliable treatment performance and compliance with the required effluent standards.
This integrated anaerobic-aerobic treatment approach offers a robust, cost-effective, and sustainable solution for managing high-COD industrial wastewater, supporting the client’s environmental compliance and operational efficiency objectives.
