- On-site factory survey
- 15 parameters at a VILAS lab
- Jar test with formula recommendation
- 25–35 page PDF report
- Results in 5 business days
- 100% free – NDA protected

3 real risks if your WWTP fails QCVN 40:2025 after 1 Jan 2032
Losing FDI contracts
Nike/Adidas/Uniqlo/Samsung clients require RBA, ZDHC and EcoVadis compliance. Failing QCVN 40:2025 = losing supplier certification within one quarter.
Upgrade costs double near the deadline
From 2030 all plants rush to upgrade → equipment, engineer and chemical prices surge. Acting in 2026 saves 40–60% of the budget.
WWTP health check process · 5 business days
01
Registration & confirmation
Day 1 · 2 hoursYou submit the registration form. Within 2 business hours the engineering team calls to confirm details, collect documentation (P&ID, equipment list) and schedule the site visit.
Deliverable
Departure schedule + document checklist
02
Site survey & sampling
Day 2 · Full dayLead engineer + monitoring engineer visit the site and survey the entire system: equalization, biological, sedimentation and disinfection tanks. Samples are taken at 4 points (inlet, post-mechanical, post-biological, outlet), sealed and transported to the lab.
Deliverable
On-site inspection report, equipment photos, sampling point map
03
Sample analysis & jar test
Day 3 · 2 lab daysThe lab measures 15 QCVN 40:2025 parameters: pH, BOD5, COD, TSS, total N, total P, ammonia, nitrate, sulfide, oil/grease, coliform, heavy metals. Jar tests recommend the optimal chemical formula.
Deliverable
15-parameter analysis results + jar test chart of 3 formulas
04
Report & upgrade scenarios
Day 4 · 1 dayThe lead engineer compiles the data, compares it against QCVN 40:2025 columns A/B and proposes 2–3 upgrade scenarios with preliminary cost estimates and payback period (ROI).
Deliverable
25–35 page evaluation PDF + executive summary slides
05
Presentation & management discussion
Day 5 · 1 hourThe lead engineer and BioGreenTech project director present on-site or online, answer questions and discuss a suitable upgrade roadmap.
Deliverable
Final PDF + slides + meeting minutes. No obligation for follow-on services.

QCVN 40:2025/BTNMT
New national technical standard for industrial wastewater
Issued with Circular 06/2025/TT-BTNMT dated 28 Feb 2025 by MoNRE, replacing 11 old standards (including QCVN 40:2011). Applies to industrial plants generating wastewater, except oil & gas, mining and textile dyeing (which have separate standards).
01/09/2025
Mandatory for NEW projects generating wastewater
31/12/2031
Existing facilities may follow the old QCVN until this date
01/01/2032
Mandatory for ALL facilities to comply with QCVN 40:2025

Frequently asked questions
Is it really free?
Yes. The programme covers the first 30 factories in 2026 and is completely free, including engineer travel, lab analysis and the report. No hidden fees, no obligation for follow-on services.
Can we join if our plant has no WWTP yet?
Yes. If your plant has no WWTP, we survey the wastewater sources, recommend a suitable technology and estimate new-build cost. The report then focuses on new design rather than retrofit.
Our plant is far from HCMC (e.g. Bac Ninh, Hai Phong)?
We serve nationwide. For plants in northern/central Vietnam travel remains free within the 30-slot programme, but scheduling may take 1–2 extra weeks so trips can be consolidated.
How much does a QCVN 40:2025 upgrade typically cost?
It depends on capacity and scope. Minimum (chemical optimisation only): VND 50–150M. Standard (equipment retrofit): VND 300–800M. Full (technology upgrade): VND 1.5–4B. The report gives specific figures for your plant.
Is our plant information kept confidential?
Yes. All engineers sign an NDA before site visits. Data, photos and P&ID diagrams are stored only on BioGreenTech internal systems and never shared with third parties. After 12 months data is deleted if you do not continue with our services.
Can we see a sample report first?
Yes. After submitting the form you receive an automated email with a sample report (previous client data redacted) so you can preview the structure and level of detail. Request it via info@biogreentech.vn if it does not arrive.
