Environmental Contaminant Treatment - Brochure

There is a growing need to protect the world’s water supply from chemicals. Recent research has shown that a wide variety of chemicals exist at trace concentrations in streams, lakes, rivers, and in groundwater throughout the world. The term “environmental contaminants” refers to chemicals present in soil, in air, and in water. These compounds may come directly from human sources such as industrial manufacturing, agricultural run-off, or wastewater discharge, or they may originate from natural sources, such as the tasteand odor-causing chemicals in water generated by algae and bacteria blooms.
