Veolia to supply wastewater treatment system for Louisiana ethane cracker and MEG plant

The 650 gpm system will treat wastewater from three sources at the facility using Veolia’s Whittier Induced Gas Flotation, Whittier Corrugated Plate Interceptor, AnoxKaldnes Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor and Hydrotech Discfilter technologies.

Veolia’s work scope includes process design, equipment procurement, system integration, construction support, commissioning, start-up and training. The system will be operational prior to the cracker coming online in October 2018.

LACC is a joint venture between Axiall Corp, based in Atlanta, Georgia, and South Korea’s Lotte Chemical Corp.
