Environment & Wastewater

We Work for a More Viable World...

Briefly, the aim of dewatering and treatment is to recycle valuable raw materials in wastewater or production waste formed in municipalities and industrial implementation areas and to ensure the economic disposal of waste sludge without harming the environment.  For a more viable world, Polat Makina performs its duties and responsibilities all over the world in the best manner by making a significant contribution to the life cycle with its equipped technical staff and centrifugal technologies designed with environmental awareness and produced without compromising quality.

We Work for a More Viable World...

While urbanization and industrialization provide more economic opportunities for many people, if planning and infrastructure are lacking or deteriorated; polluted or inadequate water resources become our biggest problem. According to a United Nations report, 80% of the world’s wastewater is returned to the ecosystem without treatment or reuse, and unfortunately, 3.6 million people, of which 84% are children, die from diseases caused by contaminated water every year…

Unfortunately, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find clean water in many countries today, and the inevitable result of this uncontrollable situation is more war and migration to geographies with clean water. The effects of climate change, which leads to population growth, environmental destruction, droughts, and floods are cited as the primary reasons of this situation. The best example of this issue in population growth is India. In India, most people live in cities where the population is expected to double in about 30 years. Considering that even now the country is suffering from water scarcity and, in addition, is one of the countries facing difficulties in infrastructure and financing, the pressure on municipalities responsible for increasing and improving water facilities has increased considerably. 

In India without the financial capital needed to operate sewage networks and wastewater treatment plants, most of the sludge obtained and dewatered is sent to solid waste landfills instead of being sold or used in agriculture. As opposed to popular belief, high financial strength is also not sufficient alone against problems related to water quality and safety. Ireland, for example, is one of the ten richest countries in the world but has been short on clean water supply and wastewater disposal systems. In addition, according to the European Environmental Agency (EEA) report published in 2018, only 38% of lakes, rivers, estuaries, and coastal waters across Europe meet ecological standards. Wastewater treatment plants and the technologies used in this area are becoming critical with expectations that wastewater sludge will increase by more than 80% by 2040. The importance of reducing the amount of waste and dewatering is increasing for the final removal of sludge within these technologies. Briefly, the aim of dewatering and treatment is to recycle valuable raw materials in wastewater or production waste formed in municipalities and industrial implementation areas and to ensure the economic disposal of waste sludge without harming the environment. 

For a more viable world, Polat Makina performs its duties and responsibilities all over the world in the best manner by making a significant contribution to the life cycle with its well-qualified personnel and centrifugal technologies designed with environmental awareness and produced without compromising quality.
