Veolia’s process enables customers in the Power (FGD), Mining and other industries to meet the strictest selenium discharge limits in one simple step with minimal operating costs and operator attention.
With over 20 years of experience, development and proven global installation base, Veolia’s products are trusted for selenium removal.
ABMet is a revolutionary biological process that removes metals and inorganics from wastewater to below non-detect levels. The ABMet process uses naturally occurring, non-pathogenic microbes to reduce and precipitate target compounds. The result is a highly efficient biological system that can remove 99%+† of selenium, nitrate, and other inorganics from wastewater. ABMet systems can reach the low effluent contaminant concentrations that are required by current or future regulations—levels that cannot be reliably achieved by physical/chemical processes.
