Wastewater Treatment System for Nuttelex, Melbourne

Nuttelex required a wastewater treatment system for its new Melbourne facility to ensure compliance with trade waste regulations. The solution needed to remove solids, fats, grease, and other contaminants while providing reliability and efficiency.

Hydroflux designed and constructed a complete wastewater treatment system centred on the HyDAF unit – a high-performance, rectangular counter-current DAF integrated with a chemical treatment process. This combination ensures reliable removal of suspended solids and emulsified oils typical in food manufacturing.

The system was fully manufactured in Australia, including automation and controls tailored to the client’s interface and PLC/HMI preferences. Hydroflux’s expertise in DAF sizing and system integration ensured the solution aligned with Nuttelex’s operational needs.

The Results

The system delivered:

  • Reliable removal of solids, fats, grease, and oils
  • Full compliance with trade waste requirements
  • A customised, locally manufactured solution with short lead times
  • Long-term efficiency and simplified operation
