WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANTS
What Is Wastewater?
Water, whose quality is affected as a result of domestic, industrial, agricultural or other uses and whose characteristics have changed partially or wholly, is called as wastewater.
What Is Wastewater Treatment?
It is physical, chemical and biological treatments applied to recover a part or all of physical, chemical and bacteriological features lost by water as a result of various uses after it is converted into wastewater and to cause that it has become water that does not change natural physical, chemical and ecological features of the environment to which it is discharged.
Treatment processes to be employed vary depending on quality of wastewater. Biological treatment plant should be preferred for removal of dissolved organic matters in water by bacteriological activities while chemical treatment plant should be preferred for removal of dissolved or suspended matters, which cannot settle by the gravity, by precipitating them. On the other hand, physical treatment plant should be preferred for removal of solid matters in water that can naturally settle. These processes can be used separately but also, they can be installed one after the other. Our company with its experienced and dynamic team keeps conducting studies on wastewater treatment systems to put the optimum one in practice.
What Does Efe Construction Environment Do?
Efe Construction Environment, first of all, prepares process projects and conduct analytic calculations and studies according to the defined needs based on the provisions issued by the relevant institutes. Then, it installs and assembles the plant accordingly. Performance tests are conducted after the plant is started before commissioning. Water analyses are conducted during operation to ensure that effluent quality meets the values in the regulations. The plant is delivered to you in functional condition.

POTABLE WATER TREATMENT PLANTS
What Is Potable Water?
Potable water is the water used by people for satisfying their drinking, washing, cleaning and various needs during their daily activities.
What Is Potable Water Treatment?
To supply water as potable water from groundwater and surface water that are used as water resource in a continuous and safe way, water must not include any microorganism causing illnesses, its chemical content like chloride, sulfate, zinc, nitrite and lead must not exceed the predefined values and its features like color, turbidity and pH must satisfy the defined values. Thus, treating water from resources by using various methods according to the regulatory standards is called as potable water treatment.
What Does Efe Construction Environment Do?
Because groundwater and surface water quality has been affected by many reasons, they should be treated. There are various methods usable in potable water treatment. At this point, Efe Construction Environment has developed an innovative three-step modular water treatment system (İNTRİMOD).

WASTE GAS DEGASSING AND DEODORIZATION
WHAT IS WASTE GAS?
It is originated from generally H2S, NH3, SO2 and certain volatile organic compounds with bad odor and harmful for environment sourced from wastewater and wastewater treatment plants. Stack gasses from various sources include dangerous pollutants like SO2, SO3, H2S and HCl. These gasses posing great risk to human health are called as waste gases.
WHAT IS WASTE GAS DEGASSING AND DEODORIZATION?
Waste gas degassing and deodorization systems are the systems installed for reducing or entirely removing odors sourced from manufacturing processes in the whole industry and wastewater treatment systems and especially from screen and grid arrestors and sludge thickener/disposal units.
Efe Construction Environment prepares projects and put them into practice for treatment of any kind of polluted gas and dust wastes from boiler rooms, treatment plants or factories and odors from different resources with the optimum method. Gas, dust or odor treatment units are manufactured from stainless steel, polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) and glass fiber reinforced polyester (CTP) materials. These systems are installed in the optimum way and delivered in operable condition.

BUILDING AND SUPERSTRUCTURE WORKS
CONTRACTING
Efe Construction Environment has also completed many houses and commercial buildings. It has taken place in construction of houses, business centers, factories and many superstructure works. It ensures that the project has been executed in a high quality way by undertaking all construction activities with its experience and its dynamic staff.
PROJECT PREPARATION
We are ready for help with various solutions related to project preparation as the project/design team of Efe Construction Environment for our customers, who plan to construct their buildings.
MARKET RESEARCH
The data from our previous projects (unit price, survey lists, subcontractor proposals etc.) are kept ready for using them in the next projects and they are improved.
COST
After the project is prepared, the estimated cost of the planned construction is found. To find the total cost of the construction, the contractor’s profit is added to this figure.
TECHNICAL SUPPORT SERVICES
We provide technical support and service provision to the plants that we have installed around Turkey with Efe Construction Environment Service Network. Regular maintenance works are done by the relevant expert personnel in the treatment plants to keep their efficiency high.
ADVANTAGES OF TECHNICAL SUPPORT AND SERVICE PROVISION
- The customer is informed constantly by considering the actual legislation on environment.
- Efficiency of the plant is monitored to avoid negative consequences during environmental audits.
- Regularly checking mechanical equipments makes early response possible in case of any failure.

WHAT ARE WATER SOURCE CLASSES?
Water sources can be classified as “fresh water” and “hard water” depending on their salinity. The parameter usable in the terminology for this purpose is the parameter of TDS (Total Dissolved Solids). TDS indicates mineral content of a water resource. Water with a TDS value lower than 1.500 ppm is defined as fresh water while water, whose TDS value is between 1.500 and 6.000 ppm, is classified as hard water. Seawater’s TDS value varies between 25,000 ppm and 40,000 ppm depending on the geographical position. Some wide lakes’ or internal seas’ salinity may also be high. For example, the Caspian Sea’s salinity is in the interval of 10.000 – 12.000 ppm. Hard waters and very saline seawaters must be converted into fresh water before being used by humans.
WHAT ARE THE MINERALS IN WATER?
Human body needs the minerals that exist in water. Water, which is a source of life, includes many minerals that are crucially important. Natural spring waters and natural mineral waters include elements like calcium, magnesium, bicarbonate and iron. If calcium content of water is close to 250 mg, magnesium content to 75 mg and bicarbonate content to 600 mg, we may say that this water is rich in electrolyte. However, we cannot satisfy our body’s mineral need by drinking 2 liter of water during a day. Thus, it is ideal that we should satisfy our body’s mineral need with the food that we eat.
WHAT SHOULD BE AN IDEAL POTABLE WATER’S pH VALUE?
The most important factor defining value of water is its pH level. pH 7 is considered as neutral. Alkalinity until pH 8.5 means that it is healthier for body. In other words, pH level of water from potable water treatment plants may varies between 7.2 and 8.5. This interval may be considered ideal as pH level of potable water.
WHAT IS İNTRİMOD (INNOVATIVE THREE-STEP MODULAR WATER TREATMENT SYSTEM)?
The innovative, three-step modular water treatment system, Intrimod compact treatment system, is an advanced technology treatment system for river waters, groundwater, process water and gray waters. It is composed of a settlement unit with chemical lamella, an adsorption clarification unit and a filtration unit with mixed bed.
WHAT IS PACKAGE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT?
They are portable compact treatment systems including all equipments inside it designed for domestic or industrial wastewater with low flow rate. They are generally made up of steel construction.
WHAT ARE THE PARAMETERS AFFECTING TREATMENT COST?
-Biodegradability
-Pollutant concentrations
-Wastewater volume
-Changes in wastewater
