How to Solve Foaming in Battery Recycling Wastewater? Chemi Tech's Efficient Defoamer Provides Professional Solutions

In the battery recycling production process, the wastewater treatment stage often faces the severe challenge of excessive foam. This foam not only overflows from tanks causing environmental concerns but also severely impacts the efficiency of subsequent process units such as sedimentation, filtration, and membrane separation. This leads to reduced system treatment capacity, increased operating costs, and even triggers equipment alarms and shutdowns. Traditional physical methods or general-purpose defoamers often provide only temporary relief, failing to eradicate the persistent foam issue.

Addressing this industry pain point, Chemi Tech leverages profound technical expertise to develop a series of high-performance defoamers specifically designed for battery recycling wastewater. Our solution precisely targets the unique chemical composition and process conditions of this wastewater. Its core advantages include: rapid penetration and breakdown of foam lamellae for instantaneous defoaming; excellent persistent foam suppression to prevent re-generation; and stable chemical properties that adapt to a wide range of pH and temperature conditions without negatively impacting downstream water quality metrics.

Our professional service process is clear and efficient: First, our technical team analyzes foam characteristics from on-site wastewater samples to assess the cause and severity of foaming. Next, based on the analysis results, we select or customize the most compatible defoamer product from our portfolio. Then, we provide detailed guidance on addition points, dosage, and methods to ensure the defoamer performs optimally at critical stages. We also offer continuous follow-up services, optimizing the solution based on system changes to ensure lasting foam control effectiveness.

For instance, an enterprise focused on recycling new energy materials encountered severe foam in the wastewater pre-treatment stage of its hydrometallurgical process, causing centrifuge malfunction. After implementing a tailored defoamer solution recommended by Chemi Tech, added at a minimal ratio at the reactor outlet, the foam dissipated rapidly within minutes. Centrifuge separation efficiency recovered to over 95%, system operation stabilized, and wastewater treatment throughput significantly increased. The customer highly appreciated the stability of the treatment results.

Choosing Chemi Tech means selecting not just a product, but a reliable end-to-end solution for foam problems. We are committed to helping battery recycling enterprises overcome wastewater treatment bottlenecks and achieve more efficient and economical clean production through our professional technology and services.
