With over 10 years in the field, Robin Deal – Product Manager, AquaPure, has seen it all! During this episode, she discusses why wastewater treatment is critically important for manufacturing. You will hear discussions about rules, regulations, wastewater permit limits and the fines (or even potential jail time) for not staying in compliance. But the heart of the matter is also covered – caring about the communities our companies operate in and not polluting our population. So, how does a plant remove the contaminants that were put in the water? As companies try to meet ISO 14001 standards they are faced with “zero liquid discharge.” But what does that mean and what type of filtration systems should be considered for organics vs solids in the pursuit of reducing water consumption and cost? And some fun facts are covered like: Did you know that Robin can feel if water is not treated correctly or what “f-word” she would eliminate from wastewater treatment if she could, and why?
