The Problem: A County Transit operates three bus maintenance facilities. Each facility generates wash wastewater in the process of cleaning buses. Engine degreasing, undercarriage wash, wheel cleaning, and general maintenance washing generate wastewater contaminated with oils, grease, and metals including Zinc and Lead. They needed a system that could remove the contaminants and purify the water ...
The Problem: A well known electrical components company manufactures electrical wiring components such as grounding rod clamps, wiring crimps, end connectors, distribution components, and a variety of other electrical parts. In this process, they generate a waste stream containing various metals including copper, zinc, and aluminum. The CF 200 system has been installed to remove the metals and ...
Over the last decade, business procurement has evolved significantly. Procurement is now a strategic corporate function, with new purchases needing to enhance performance while meeting increasingly stringent compliance, sustainability, and governance targets. Developments in AI and data processing are accelerating this evolution.One estimate suggests that the average business-to-business ...
When it comes to wastewater treatment, traditional aeration techniques do a good job at degrading all sorts of organic contaminants in wastewater. However, there’s an even better, more advanced aeration technology that takes wastewater treatment to the next level. It’s called the Nano-Bubbler. Unlike traditional aeration technologies that inject air to the water in an ineffective way ...
Wastewater treatment is a complex topic that involves numerous processes, components and equipment that all have the singular goal to turn any liquid into water that can either be reused or returned to the water cycle. There are even a lot of wastewater treatment systems that everyone from households to industries use to meet their wastewater treatment needs. These technologies include the ...
Industrial water pollution is a widespread problem throughout the planet. When harmful chemicals and compounds are discharged into water, the water becomes unsuitable for drinking and other uses. Although most of the Earth’s surface is covered by water, we can only obtain fresh water from water bodies such as ponds, lakes, rivers, streams, and reservoirs. This means that it’s in our ...
The Problem: The company manufactures various types of fasteners for the aerospace industry. In the process of manufacturing, several waste streams are generated that contain oil, various metals, and solids. In order to save operating costs in the form of hauling charges, The company needed a way to treat the waste streams to allow for discharge to the local POTW. They also required to treat two ...
The Problem: This oil exploratory company generates wastewater in the process of cleaning oilfield tools used on offshore oil rigs. The tools are loaded with oil, solids, salts, and a variety of chemicals and metals. The tools are washed using a pressure washer then the water is collected and sent to the system for treatment through various ECE products and then the cleaned water is reused in the ...
Facing tighter environmental and energy‑saving mandates, the central claim is that the asphalt drum mix plant manufacturer is focusing upgrades that directly lower emissions, reduce fuel consumption, and improve material efficiency—changes that increase the aftermarket value of asphalt plants for sale. Buyers should evaluate specific retrofits and factory configurations that target ...

Rubber Tyred Gantry (RTG) cranes are widely used in ports, logistics yards, precast yards, and heavy industrial facilities for handling large and heavy loads. Unlike rail-mounted cranes, RTG cranes rely heavily on hydraulic systems to perform essential functions such as steering, braking, suspension control, and in some designs, lifting assistance. Because these systems operate under high ...
A clean and green environment is essential for healthy living and is crucial for the well-being of future generations. And that is why we should do our best to protect it against anything that can potentially harm it, like wastewater. Wastewater is any water with dissolved or suspended solids and has been affected by human use. It comes from a variety of ordinary living processes ...
A Chemistry-Based Approach to Fly and Odor Control Abstract Persistent fly infestations and odor generation in agricultural, industrial, and municipal systems are commonly treated as surface-level sanitation issues. However, growing evidence suggests these challenges are rooted in the structural and microbial dynamics of biofilm. This article examines the role of biofilm as a foundational ...
The Problem: In the manufacturing of cardboard boxes, ink is used to print a client’s information on the container. During the change-outs of the printing press, the ink is washed off the printing roller to ready the process for the next client’s container. This washing generates a waste ink high in solids that in order to discharge the box manufacturer has paid excessive discharge ...
The Problem: Undercarriage wash operations generate a waste stream of emulsified oils, metals, and organics. High emulsifying degreaser provides easy removal of oils and grease from the vehicle using a pressure washer but leaves wastewater that is difficult to treat for either recycle or discharge. Oils and grease remain in chemical emulsification. The wastewater also contains metals, COD, and ...
We have performed initial treatment on the sample to determine feasibility using the ClearFlow process scenario. The results we have obtained are very good considering the clarity of the post treated sample. The photo below provides a visual representation of the ClearFlow process scenario. A more detailed testing is being completed to determine the effective dosing rate of the Clayfloc for ...
In a major effort to protect human and environmental health, EPA works with its state, federal and tribal regulatory partners to monitor and ensure compliance with clean water laws and regulations. The Clean Water Act (CWA) is the principal federal law that governs water ...
Chemical waste that has been improperly managed may contaminate water streams. This type of industrial water pollution, which comes with many causes, has both significant and harmful impacts on human and aquatic life. Environmental Compliance Equipment’s (ECE) CLEAR FLOW SYSTEM is designed to treat contaminated water. The Clear Flow system is a fully automated wastewater treatment process ...

The Problem: This company is a hazardous materials transport company based in Illinois with 25 locations around the Eastern US. In several locations they operate wash racks to keep the fleet of trucks clean. They generate a volume of waste water that is contaminated with oils, solids, organics and salts. They required the reuse of the wash water. They prides themselves on a clean fleet for visual ...
C.F. Maier was commissioned to roof a screw pumping station at the Cologne-Stammheim sewage treatment plant. The order comprised four chambers, each 3.80 meters wide and around 10 meters ...
