English term or phrase: wet processing plant
I'm currently translating a document about the recycling infrastructure in a company and cannot find a plausible translation for 'wet processing plant' anywhere. Any help would be much appreciated.

French translation:unité de traitement humide
Explanation:
Contexte de traitement et/ou recyclage de déchets ou autres: unité de traitement humide.

S'il s'agissait de méthode d'exploitation minière, ce sera "unité de traitement par voie humide".

neutral  Tony M: As this seems to be part of an organization's infrastructure, I suspect 'établissement' is the wrong kind of plant here; and 'transformation' for 'processing' only applies in certain contexts; we don't have enough information here to be sure either way.
