Portable Infrared Analyzers Help Ensure Compliance with Oil in Water Effluent Discharge Levels
Oil in wastewater discharges are highly regulated and each region of the world has their specific regulations. For the off-shore oil industry regulating bodies such as the NPDES(National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System) in the US have strict ppm limits that are coupled with costly fines for non-compliance. On-shore industrial wastewater producers also have limits imposed either by the ...

IR analysis helps industries comply with regulations for wastewater
For over 30 years, the Clean Water Act has been governing water pollution. Initially the focus was on traditional “point source” polluters such as municipal sewage treatment plants and industrial facilities. The focus is now on the “non-point sources” such as Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs) which are a major contributor to non-point source pollution. This is due to the increase in the ...

Comply with Highly Regulated Oil in Water Measurements
The Petroleum Industry – both offshore and onshore -- has regulations that limit the amount of oil in discharged water. Fixed filter infrared (IR) analyzers have been used to test oil levels in produced water on drilling platforms for over 45 years. On oil rigs where real estate is at a premium, infrared analyzers such as the Wilks InfraCal Analyzers are compact (typically 6 inches or 15 ...
