Hi Similade, what are the species contributing to your TDS? Do you also have a high BOD? Regards Raoul

OK. Perhaps some more information on the moieties making up TDS would be required. Some metals can be precipitated by pH adjustments, but this is not the case with Na or K. If you have dissolved organics you may need to look at a biological system. There are some systems that use aerobic bacteria on curtains down which the effluent runs. This process can be quite compact and cheap to run. Let me know if you need more details. Regards Raoul

BOD is normal...I actually didn't carry out full cations and ions analysis, but I know Sodium, chloride, Calcium, Manganese are high
