Founded in 2009, formerly known as Red Circle Industries (RCI), RCI Aquatech creates custom wastewater solutions based on end users’ requirements, which allow for optimally chosen components resulting in a solution that meets or exceeds customer needs. RCI Aquatech’s wastewater treatment systems combine necessary process technologies to reach required state and federal discharge limits and comply with local regulations. Our systems focus on removal of pollutants such as heavy metals, greases, suspended solids, oils, high salt content, toxic compounds, phosphates and more. Using chemical-physical treatment (coagulation, flocculation, and sedimentation), biological treatment (aerobic and anaerobic) and wet chemical oxidation (persistent or toxic organics). Our expertise comprises the following technologies:  Filtration & softening systems  Physicochemical treatment (coagulation-flocculation)  Membrane filtration (UF & RO)  Ion exchange  Chemical oxidation  Biological treatment  Zero liquid discharge (ZLD) system

EC Solutions is a specialized consultancy focused on electrochemical technologies for water and wastewater treatment. We believe electrochemical processes, and electrocoagulation in particular, are among the most promising technologies in the water sector today. As a rule of thumb, anything that can be treated with conventional coagulation–flocculation can be pretreated with electrocoagulation, without adding chemicals. That means less chemical handling, lower sludge complexity, and more controllable treatment outcomes. We help industries evaluate, pilot, and implement electrocoagulation as a robust pretreatment or core process for color removal, heavy metals, TSS, emulsified oils, and complex industrial effluents. If you’re dealing with a difficult water challenge and want a cleaner, smarter alternative to chemical treatment, EC Solutions is built for that.

For a full list of applications and for further details on key applications, follow the menu to the right. Cleaning systems The United Kingdom’s water industry is poised for its most ambitious transformation yet under the AMP8 (Asset Management Period 8) investment cycle, which runs from 2025 to 2030. Backed by an unprecedented £108 billion investment, the largest in the sector’s history, AMP8 is focused not only on maintaining and upgrading ageing infrastructure but also on addressing growing environmental and regulatory challenges. A significant £11 billion of this total has been earmarked specifically for stormwater and sewage spill mitigation, reflecting mounting pressure from regulators, the public, and environmental groups to curb pollution in rivers, lakes, and coastal waters. At the heart of this environmental push lies the urgent need for more stormwater retention tanks and combined sewage overflow (CSO) systems. It is estimated that some 2,000 such systems will need to be updated, refurbished or built in the AMP round of funding. This stormwater management infrastructure is vital if the target of reducing spills and sewage discharges into waterways by 44% is to be met. Much of this new infrastructure will require specialised cleaning systems. Storm water attenuation tanks can cause serious smell pollution if left improperly cleaned after usage. The StormBlaster tank cleaning system is a more effective alternative to tipping buckets, swirl eductors and manual entry cleaning. Screen cleaning Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs) are a key feature of combined sewer systems, where rainwater and wastewater share the same pipework. During heavy rainfall, these systems can become overwhelmed without proper control measures. CSO chambers manage excess flows by allowing water levels to rise and diverting surplus into overflow pipes. A crucial component of CSOs is the screening system, which traps solids and keeps them within the sewer network. This prevents solid waste from entering local waterways and protects the environment. Foam control The formation of a stable foam in the water treatment process is a common problem. Foam can occur in aeration tanks, anaerobic digesters or secondary clarifiers. Foam is undesirable because it can overflow vessels, create slippery and unsafe working conditions, interfere with processing, damage materials, and cause tanks to drain and dry slowly. Controlling foam can be accomplished by spraying liquid onto the pool, vessel, or reservoir’s surface and allowing the spray’s droplets to impact the foam bubbles, causing them to break. Spray nozzle arrays positioned above fluid level can be used to knock back the foam and keep it under control. Odour control The use of sprays to knock down and neutralise odour is a common application for our spray nozzles. Nozzles are either used to directly treat odour particles in the air or as part of scrubber systems.
