ETP Effluent Treatment Plant

Industrial Wastewater Treatment — DoE-Certified & Export-Ready

Clearion designs, supplies, and installs Effluent Treatment Plants that meet Bangladesh DoE discharge standards and satisfy EU buyer environmental audits — engineered specifically for your facility's flow rates and inlet characteristics.

How It Works

Multi-stage treatment process

Every Clearion ETP moves wastewater through a series of engineered stages, each removing a specific category of contaminant before the final discharge meets DoE parameters.

Bar screens remove large solids. An equalisation tank buffers flow variations so downstream units receive a consistent load — essential for stable downstream treatment performance.

Industries

Which industries require an ETP?

Under Bangladesh's Environment Conservation Rules (ECR 1997) and subsequent DoE notifications, all factories generating industrial effluent must treat wastewater before discharge. Non-compliance carries factory closure orders and affects export certification.

Textile & Garments

Dyeing, washing, and finishing lines — colour, BOD, COD, and pH treatment essential for ZDHC compliance.

Leather & Tannery

Heavy metal (chromium), sulphide, and high-strength organic removal for Hazaribagh relocation compliance.

Pharmaceutical

API manufacturing effluent — solvent, active compound, and biological load treatment for DoE and WHO-GMP audits.

Food & Beverage

High BOD/COD from processing lines — biological treatment with grease traps and nutrient removal.

Paper & Pulp

Fibre, colour, and BOD load removal from paper mill effluent.

Chemical Industry

Mixed organic and inorganic contaminant streams requiring custom chemical treatment stages.

Technical Specifications

Design parameters

All parameters subject to site-specific design. Clearion engineers each system from a full inlet characterisation study.

Why Clearion

Engineering certainty, not just equipment

Site-specific design

We start from an inlet water analysis and site survey — every system is sized to your actual process load, not a catalogue specification.

DoE approval support

We prepare the full documentation package — process flow diagrams, design drawings, test reports, and operational manuals — and support you through inspection.

Construction supervision

Our engineers oversee civil works, equipment installation, and commissioning to ensure the built system matches the approved design.

AMC maintenance

Annual maintenance contracts cover scheduled servicing, reagent restocking, membrane replacement, and emergency response for the life of your plant.
