The chemical processing industry is highly diversified, containing various sub-groups including petrochemical and pharmaceutical. Large quantities of water are utilized in everyday operations and become contaminated by chemicals derived from petroleum and natural gas. The exposure to these chemicals, as well as other toxins, leaves the chemical industry facing formidable environmental regulatory challenges in treating their wastewater effluents.

The wastewater produced by the chemical industry contains various organic and inorganic matter that are toxic, mutagenic, carcinogenic and must be treated. The wastewater generated by chemical processing has created various wastewater challenges including the treatment of oils, greases, volatile organics, phenols, heavy metals and other specific contaminants.

Treatment of chemical industry wastewater is vital to the operations of any chemical processing facility and to the safety and protection of the environment.
