A drainage processing apparatus that processes drainage expelled from a scrubber apparatus is provided. The drainage processing apparatus includes: a magnetic powder adding unit that adds magnetic powders to the drainage; a transfer unit that transfers the drainage; and an adsorbing unit that: is provided in the transfer unit; adsorbs bound matter that is contained in the drainage and contains at least a process-target substance and the magnetic powders; and retains the bound matter in the transfer unit. In one example, the adsorbing unit is able to re-release adsorbed bound matter into the transfer unit. In one example, the adsorbing unit has a permanent magnet provided to be directly insertable into and removable from within the transfer unit, and the permanent magnet adsorbs the bound matter by being inserted into the transfer unit, and re-releases the bound matter into the transfer unit by being removed from within the transfer unit.

Drainage processing apparatus and drainage processing method

System and method for treating scrubber and ballast wastewater at the same time. The method includes mixing ballast and scrubber wastewater to make a suspended solid concentration or turbidity of the obtained wastewater mixture constant, the scrubber wastewater produced by bringing exhaust gas and scrubber washing water into contact with each other in a scrubber; adding magnetic powder to the wastewater mixture; and magnetically separating magnetic flocs obtained in the adding. The system includes a mixer that mixes ballast and scrubber wastewater to make a suspended solid concentration or turbidity of the obtained wastewater mixture constant, the scrubber wastewater produced by bringing exhaust gas and scrubber washing water into contact with each other in a scrubber; a magnetic powder adding device that adds magnetic powder to the wastewater mixture obtained by the mixer; and a magnetic separator that magnetically separates magnetic flocs obtained by the magnetic powder adding device.

Wastewater treatment method and wastewater treatment system

A scrubber wastewater treatment method, according to one possible embodiment, includes obtaining a measurement of a turbidity or of a suspended substance concentration of scrubber wastewater and, upon determining that measurement of turbidity or suspended substance concentration is within a certain range, performing treatment. A scrubber wastewater treatment device, according to one possible embodiment, includes a magnetic powder adding device controllable to add a magnetic powder to be added to scrubber wastewater having been generated by treating combustion exhaust gas in a scrubber, and a controller configured to control an amount of the magnetic powder added by the magnetic powder adding device in accordance with a measurement value obtained by a sensor.
