Containerized Water Treatment Core Portable Design Features

Modular and Transport-Friendly Construction

• Standard Container Dimensions: Containerized water treatment systems from Suzhou Zhongnan Intelligent Equipment Co, Ltd. are built into ISO-standard shipping containers (20-foot or 40-foot), ensuring compatibility with standard trucks, ships, and forklifts. This eliminates the need for specialized transport equipment, reducing logistics costs and enabling delivery to remote locations (e.g., rural villages, mining sites). For example, a 20-foot containerized wastewater treatment unit can be transported via a standard flatbed truck and deployed within 24 hours of arrival—critical for emergency response scenarios like floods or droughts.
• Compact, All-in-One Design: All components (filters, pumps, control panels, storage tanks) are pre-installed and integrated within the container, with no external connections required beyond water inlet/outlet and power. This “plug-and-play” design minimizes on-site installation time—most systems are operational within 4–6 hours of delivery, compared to weeks for traditional water treatment plants.

Durability and Weather Resistance for Outdoor Use

• Industrial-Grade Enclosure: The container housing of containerized water treatment systems is made of corten steel with a corrosion-resistant coating, able to withstand harsh weather (rain, snow, extreme temperatures: -20°C to 50°C) and physical impact. This durability makes them suitable for outdoor deployment, even in rugged environments (e.g., construction sites, offshore platforms). The containers also feature IP65-rated control panels and waterproof electrical components, preventing water damage during operation.
• Shock-Resistant Components: Internal components (e.g., membranes, pumps, sensors) are mounted on shock-absorbing brackets to withstand vibrations during transport. This ensures the systems remain functional even after long-distance shipping or rough terrain transport— a key advantage over fragile traditional water treatment equipment.

Containerized Wastewater Treatment Portable Applications

Industrial and Construction Site Wastewater Management

• On-Site Treatment and Recycling: Containerized wastewater treatment systems from Suzhou Zhongnan Intelligent Equipment Co, Ltd. are ideal for industrial sites (e.g., factories, mines) and construction camps, where wastewater (e.g., chemical-laden, suspended solids) needs to be treated before discharge or recycling. The systems use processes like ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis, and chemical oxidation to remove contaminants, meeting local discharge standards (e.g., COD <50mg/L, SS <10mg/L). For example, a 40-foot containerized wastewater treatment unit can treat 50m³ of construction wastewater daily, recycling up to 80% for site use (e.g., concrete mixing, dust suppression)—reducing freshwater consumption and disposal costs.
• Temporary Deployment Flexibility: Unlike permanent wastewater treatment plants, containerized wastewater treatment units can be moved as the project progresses (e.g., from one construction phase to another) or relocated to new sites once the project ends. This flexibility eliminates the need for multiple permanent plants, reducing capital investment for customers.

Emergency and Disaster Relief Wastewater Handling

• Rapid Response to Contamination: After natural disasters (e.g., floods, earthquakes), wastewater systems often fail, leading to contamination of water sources. Containerized wastewater treatment systems can be deployed quickly to treat sewage and prevent the spread of waterborne diseases. Suzhou Zhongnan Intelligent Equipment Co, Ltd.’s emergency-focused models are lightweight (20-foot units weigh ≈5,000kg) and can be airlifted by helicopter to inaccessible areas, providing critical wastewater treatment within hours of a disaster.
