Industrial wastewater treatment plants
Wastewater generated in an industrial setting is particularly difficult to treat due to its high pollutant load. Beyond the need to comply with strict regulations, these facilities are closely linked to a sustainable business vision.
Industrial wastewater treatment (WWTP)
We design and build industrial water treatment plants, providing specific solutions for each situation.
We have decades of experience in wastewater regeneration, developing reuse solutions that reduce dependence on the resource and minimize the impact on the receiving environment.
In addition, we handle the operation and maintenance process of these industrial wastewater treatment plants.
Specialists in the construction of industrial water treatment plants
Our origins lie in the operation and maintenance of these plants. Since then, we have incorporated the latest technology, which our team of over 130 people adapts to each industry in the construction of industrial water treatment plants.

Advantages of having a wastewater treatment plant
Sustainable energy efficiency at the service of your industry.
An environmental and economic perspective
Wastewater treatment plants go beyond simply ensuring legal compliance; they also aim to achieve energy efficiency and the resulting cost reductions.
Automated industrial wastewater treatment plants
Our WIM tool provides real-time access to various data and allows for the management of customizable alerts to meet specific industrial needs. Furthermore, it enables the automated generation of reports for wastewater treatment plants.
Live data and alerts
WIM allows access to and management of all these parameters from any device, anywhere, an added value in emergency situations that prevent in-person management.
We offer the most advanced technical solutions
We utilize the latest anaerobic technology for wastewater treatment. This allows us to recover value from organic matter and achieve maximum efficiency in a process that also generates biogas, which can be used for industrial self-sufficiency.
We accompany you throughout the process
We put our experience in the areas of waste management and chemical products at the service of the optimal functioning of industrial wastewater treatment plants.
Waste valorization and management
Adding value to your waste has become a fundamental part of our comprehensive water management service. We work to manage and add value to livestock and agri-food waste, complying with current regulations.
Chemical products
Precisely because we are part of the entire development of these plants, we know the ideal solution to nourish them with the best possible chemical product.
We have developed the SITRAFIX-IN 25 coagulant for the treatment of industrial water, with a quality comparable to that intended for human consumption. Furthermore, this new product is extending the lifespan of SITRA customers' facilities.

Frequently asked questions about industrial wastewater treatment plants
What is needed to build an industrial wastewater treatment plant?
There are several basic factors to consider when starting up an industrial wastewater treatment plant.
Among them, you need to have sufficient capacity for sludge management, you need to have enough space, and you must work with correct parameters from the design phase, so as not to have to assume additional costs in the operation and maintenance phase.
How can I tell if my company needs an industrial wastewater treatment plant?
First, an industrial wastewater treatment plant may be required for legal reasons. Often, it is necessary to reduce pollutants in wastewater so that its discharge is compatible with the environment.
Furthermore, many companies need this type of facility for energy efficiency reasons. Beyond saving water, this process can generate solid sludge which can be used, for example, to produce biofertilizers.
What factors influence the cost of constructing a wastewater treatment plant?
There are a number of fixed costs that wastewater treatment plants must face, regardless of their specific characteristics. These include infrastructure costs, operating costs (which, in addition to labor, include items such as chemicals and preventative maintenance), and regulatory compliance costs. However, one of the most variable factors in this process is related to the availability of water resources. Depending on the degree of water scarcity at the plant's location, the cost will be higher or lower.
Is it possible to reuse treated water in an industrial wastewater treatment plant?
Yes, it is possible to reuse this treated water, for example, for cooling reactors, feeding boilers, or in different types of washing facilities. Furthermore, at SITRA we have projects where the quality of this treated water allows us to discharge it into the natural environment, such as the sea or a river irrigation ditch.
How much maintenance does a wastewater treatment plant require?
These facilities require constant monitoring to detect any operational anomalies. For example, indicators such as pH levels and the amount of suspended solids must be monitored. Continuous cleaning, for example, of filters or accumulated sludge in tanks, is another key aspect of wastewater treatment plant maintenance. Furthermore, it is essential that the personnel in charge have the appropriate training and experience.
