Removal of Oils/Soils from Industrial Wastewater & Recycling Aqueous Cleaning Solutions
Contamination classification is critical to keeping industrial wastewater discharges legal and maintaining aqueous cleaning solutions in optimized working condition. Defining contaminants and discussing multiple options for handling them summarizes this offering's initial and primary focus. Ever-diminishing high-quality H2O sources require minimizing water usage and justify water-based product recovery & reuse, hence beyond covering basic separation techniques, membrane technologies will be presented. Prior membrane drawbacks have been overcome, hence point-of-use implementations are possible today; applications shall be discussed, and results shared through actual customer case studies.

Water Issues: Quality, Costs, Compliance, and Resource Recovery by the Numbers
A study of the issues regarding water in finishing, from incoming water quality to requirements for today's finishes, to compliance and technology hurdles through wastewater treatment, resource recovery and closed loop recycling will be discussed. A focus on state-of-the-art technologies, current costs, and how all the pieces can fit together. We will cover a modular approach to building a right-sized design regarding technology, cost, quality, and compliance that can be fitted to any manufacturer's environment. The focus is on real numbers and real results from real world testing and experience. Energy, labor, compliance, and required technical mastery will be integral parts of the presentation, including the costs and projections presented. Both indirect and direct discharge issues will be discussed with an eye toward making effective, efficient decisions in system design.
