So you’ve run your cement wastewater and slurry through a filter press to clean it, and it’s ready to be reused or dumped—WRONG! You’re on the right path by making sure it’s clean and by not dumping wastewater, but you need to make sure the pH balance of the water is at the appropriate level. This is especially important when
Are you curious about the difference between sludge and slurry? You may use the words interchangeably, but they are not the same thing. They are both by-products of similar processes in industrial, refining, and wastewater industries. While they might be produced from similar processes, sludge and slurry are different, from their texture to their components. Sludge is thick and

Their old filter press was no longer keeping up with their demand, and it was also in a separate building a few hundred yards from where their
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has recently changed the game for silica standards by requesting information of Table 1 of the Respirable Crystalline Silica Standard for Construction.
