“We get $0.17 per pound more for our briquetted material over loose chips.”– Jack Rovan, Martin-Baker Plant Manufacturing ManagerProven Results Achieved for PRAB Customers: Documented reduction of scrap volume by as much as 90% Increased scrap value up to 25% Reclaimed up to 99% of cutting fluids “We have seen around […]
Most of the hazardous waste in surface finishing comes from wastewater that is generated by rinse water. Due to the substantial amount of this waste, within this $155 billion dollar industry, companies are taking quick action to mitigate the environmental risk associated with dumping, and consumption. One of the major steps is though pollution prevention planning and water conservation. […]
Understanding local regulations and distinct operating variables is key to creating effective wastewater solutions. By Tim Hanna, PRAB Vice President of Business Development Introduction Modern manufacturing operations are constantly looking for ways to innovate and increase productivity. This means making the most efficient use of any resource essential to the process. These resources, […]
Download Introduction Today’s manufacturers should be keenly aware of the problems—and especially the penalties—associated with discharging industrial wastewater into sewage treatment systems. The removal of soluble heavy metal ions from wastewater is a common industrial treatment requirement in modern manufacturing. Some of the processes that generate waste streams containing heavy metals are: Electroplating Electroless nickel plating Printed circuit […]
Electroplating, electroless nickel plating, metal-forming operations, battery recycling and other such operations all generate wastewater containing soluble heavy metal ions. Ultrafiltration and precipitation are the most effective methods for removing these metal ions. Both help manufacturers avoid the costly consequences of non-treatment, that can include corrosion to systems, toxic pollutants passed into surface waters, sludge disposal, and more. Finding […]
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 […]
On a global level, wastewater treatment is an increasingly critical topic of discussion that has been addressed at the highest levels of government and major corporations. To find a sustainable approach, companies can employ many different strategies to help themselves go beyond mere compliance and begin the process of improving global water quality. According to http://UN.org, more than 80 percent […]
