In today’s industrial landscape, effective wastewater management is essential for compliance, sustainability, and operational efficiency. Selecting the right wastewater treatment products can significantly impact your business, whether you’re in manufacturing, stone fabrication, or other sectors. Use this guide to make an informed choice about key systems, including filter presses, slurry pits, and concrete wastewater machines. Understand Your Wastewater Composition
Compliance Issues for Sludge Treatment in the Industrial Wastewater Industry
Sludge treatment is a crucial process in the industrial wastewater treatment industry, where byproducts of wastewater are treated, managed, and disposed of safely. This process helps reduce the environmental impact of industrial water filtration operations and ensures that wastewater byproducts do not threaten public health or the environment. However, navigating the complex web of regulatory standards that govern sludge treatment
How Industrial Wastewater Products Help with Recent Silica Regulations
The US Department of Labor recently tightened restrictions on silica exposure in the workplace. This is crucial for businesses to prioritize, as it ensures employee safety and helps avoid costly fines and legal liabilities. New Silica Regulations The recent silica regulations set in place by the US Department of Labor state that exposure must be limited to 50 microns per
Comparing Filter Presses: Choosing the Right Option for You
Filter press systems are among the most useful and powerful pieces of equipment in the wastewater industry. When compared to other water filtration systems—like dewatering plants and slurry pits—filter press systems are both compact and efficient, removing up to 99% of slurry solids from work water in a relatively short amount of time. However, filter presses aren’t a one-size-fits-all system.
The Features and Benefits of the WAVEXP System
Safe disposal of stone and concrete slurry is one of the most important aspects of a successful industrial operation. While many water filtration systems—like filter presses—fill specialized roles within an existing workflow, very few slurry filtration systems are truly capable of processing stone slurry from start to finish. With that in mind, we’re proud to introduce the WAVEXP system from
Exploring the Benefits of Advanced Sludge Dewatering Techniques
Sludge, the liquid produced during stone and concrete processing, is a highly hazardous substance. Because of the environmental threat it poses, sludge needs to be properly disposed of to protect the environment and maintain compliance with local, state, and federal regulations. Ignoring slurry removal laws and discharging into the surrounding area can lead to environmental damage, ecosystem collapse, and hefty
Types of Slurry Stores: An Overview
In the field of wastewater treatment and purification, effective slurry management is important—both for operational efficiency and to safeguard the environment. Whether you’re a business owner looking to maximize storage capacity or a community leader hoping to make local commerce more sustainable, a thorough understanding of slurry storage can help you make informed decisions about your operation. Types of Slurry
Slurry Tank Applications: Storing, Mixing, and Processing Slurry
Comprehensive water treatment and slurry solutions require an expertly designed system to take in water and purify it so it can be safely reused or disposed of. Slurry tanks play an important role in these systems by storing, mixing, or otherwise processing large amounts of wastewater. What Is a Slurry Tank? A slurry tank is a large vessel designed to
Why Slurry Treatment Matters to the Environment
Slurry is a term used to describe a mixture of water and solid particles produced during industrial processes like mining, drilling, construction, and stonework. While slurry is sometimes fed back into a worksite or contained by a fixture like a slurry wall or slurry tank, it is more often transported away from the worksite and disposed of. Because of its
The Health Effects of Silica Exposure
Every worksite in the stone and concrete industries needs to manage silica particle exposure. Silica is a chemical agent, commonly found in industrial wastewater, that can cause long-term health problems to workers exposed to it. Over time, symptoms compound, eventually leading to serious problems. Taking proper precautions to minimize silica exposure is a critical part of keeping workers safe and
