Blog: Evaporation Technology: A Unique Separation Process for Industrial Wastewater Treatment

Evaporation, or distillation, is a separation process that takes advantage of the changing physical states of water, or other solvents, from liquid to vapor. It is unique from other separation processes, in that the water is removed from the contaminants rather than the pollutants being filtered from the water. Before recent technological developments, the capital and energy requirements for […]

Blog: Feasibility Study: Oil Emulsion and Rinse Water Waste Treatment with Vacuum Evaporation

Mechanical and surface treatment processes in the automotive, aviation, and appliances industries require large quantities of water and produce highly pollutant wastewater that cannot be discharged directly into the sewer without proper treatment. This requirement can easily increase a company’s operating costs. A feasibility study in each case for treatment of these wastes is recommended. This study was used for […]

Blog: Why Companies Should Care – Industrial Water & Wastewater Management

According to UN.org, more than 80% of all the wastewater from our homes, cities, industry and agriculture flows back into the ecosystem via lakes, rivers and other bodies of surface water, polluting the environment while losing valuable nutrients and other recoverable materials in the process. Guy Ryder, the Director-General of the UN International Labor Organization (ILO) and the Chairperson of […]

Blog: Dangers of Hazardous Chemicals in Wastewater

The removal of lubricants, rust inhibitors, and cleaning chemicals has become increasingly important over the years due to the chemical make-up of each. Hazardous wastewater can be discharged either by being collected, and taken to a facility that handles that type of wastewater, or by being discharged into the sewer. Having the wastewater being discharged into the sewer is going […]

Application Review: Automotive Manufacturer Drives Cost Reduction and Increases Profitability Through Wastewater Treatment
