Metal Production Water Treatment Solutions & Technology
Metal Production & Finishing Wastewater Treatment
Surface treatment processes such as plating, anodizing, and coating generate wastewater containing heavy metals and regulated contaminants. Ovivo’s Alar has advanced metal finishing wastewater treatment systems help you manage pH, remove metals, and dewater sludge directly on site, optimizing compliance and reducing hauling costs. We partner with you to define the most effective solution for your regulatory requirements, ensuring cost-efficiency compared to off-site hauling.

Heavy-metal-laden wastewater from metal finishing cannot be discharged untreated without risking fines, infrastructure damage, and environmental harm. Pretreatment programs protect municipal wastewater systems and ensure safe disposal
Regulatory Compliance
Meeting discharge limits for metals such as cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, nickel, silver, and zinc is a legal requirement. Treating wastewater before it leaves your facility gives you greater control and helps avoid costly penalties.
Infrastructure & Environmental Protection
Wastewater containing corrosive or abrasive materials can damage plumbing and municipal infrastructure. Effective metal removal prevents premature wear and supports sustainability initiatives, protecting waterways and your company’s reputation.
Applications
ALAR’s systems are engineered to treat wastewater from a variety of metal finishing applications:
- Aerospace & Automotive Manufacturing: Precision finishing produces wastewater with heavy metals, oils, and chemicals.
- Anodizing: Wastewater contains aluminum, acids, and chemicals.
- Powder & E-Coat, Electroplating, Chemical Etching, PCB Manufacturing: All require targeted treatment for compliance.
