Process water treatment in the aviation industry
how-to-treat-process-water-in-the-aviation-industry In the aviation industry, environmental protection and resource efficiency requirements are constantly increasing—including in maintenance. MRO (maintenance, repair, and overhaul) companies, which service aircraft and components throughout their entire life cycle, are required to treat process water responsibly and operate sustainably.
, parts cleaning , , electroplating processes , , crack testing , and , mechanical processing , all generate different types of wastewater: oily, heavy metal-containing, salty, or chemically contaminated. These must be treated reliably and in compliance with the law – or disposed of at great expense.
With our atmospheric evaporators, we offer an efficient, internal solution for treating this process water – individually customizable and energy-optimized. In many cases, the purified distillate can be reused as needed. This not only reduces your operating costs, but also your environmental footprint – and saves up to 98 % of your previous disposal costs .
Sewage-free thanks to crack testing
In particular, crack testing — e.g., using dye penetration methods — in the (German Institute for Standardization) produces cleaning water containing special testing agents that must not be discharged directly into the sewage system. Our technology makes your testing processes virtually wastewater-free , safe, and economical.
Your advantages at a glance:
Efficient treatment of a wide variety of process water
Reuse of water purified by the
Massive reduction in disposal costs
High operational reliability – low personnel costs
Fast return on investment
Sustainable contribution to your environmental management
Areas of application
Typical wastewater in the aviation industry:
- Wastewater from the Crack testing
- Washing water from parts cleaning
- Used Cooling lubricants
- Oil-containing wastewater from washing and rinsing processes
- Heavy metal or salt-containing water from electroplating or hardening
- and many other special media

Frequently asked questions
Our vaporization systems
Maximum energy efficiency through mechanical vapor compression: Our fully automatic evaporators consume only 35 Wh/liter. Recover hygienized distillate of the highest quality for direct reuse in your production.
Our ultrafiltration systems
Our UC series uses purely mechanical ultrafiltration to separate particles, oils, and emulsions—completely without chemicals. Extend the service life of your cleaning baths many times over and ensure the consistently high quality of your process fluids.
