I have nine 400 gallon totes of wastewater containing acetone (about 200 ppm) that I need to treat to remove the acetone so it can be discharged to the local POTW. Is there a simple effective way to do this?

Thanks.

You could try activated carbon filters. Stong UV and Ozone might also be used to oxidize and break the carbon structure into CO2.
