How to Save Money on Your Wastewater Disposal Processes

Wastewater is a common by-product of production in many manufacturing and industrial environments. For safety reasons, it is important that all wastewater is processed and disposed of according to the standards of the region you reside in.

This task can become expensive, as the process of transporting untreated wastewater in large quantities to be managed off site requires additional resources and can come with high fees.

This is why Maratek Environmental has designed an efficient and cost-effective wastewater treatment system to help you save money on your wastewater disposal.

What is Wastewater?

Wastewater is any type of water that is contaminated during a process or operation. Contamination can be caused through actions like rinsing or cleaning your paint line equipment, cleaning spills on floors, extrusion operations, and many other tasks.

Some examples of possible contaminants are substances like solvents, oils, lubricants, grease, particulates, organic compounds, inks, coolants, heavy metals, salts etc. Contaminants like these can cause serious harm to both people and the environment, which is why it is important to properly treat and dispose of wastewater.

Maratek Environmental’s Sustainable and Cost-Effective Wastewater Treatment System

Our in-house wastewater treatment system is a solution for waste generators in various industries. This includes areas like cabinet manufacturing, paint and finishing, coatings, printing and packaging, extrusion, pharmaceutical, and many others. All these industries can benefit from choosing high-quality wastewater treatment solutions for their generated wastewater.

Maratek Environmental’s state-of-the-art wastewater treatment technology uses a safe and effective method of processing wastewater. This process offers a sustainable solution for eliminating a substantial amount of water from industrial wastewaters.

Here’s how the process works:

#1 – The treatment process begins by loading the wastewater into the system, where it undergoes processing within the boiler.

#2 – As the temperature of the boiler steadily increases, the wastewater gradually approaches the boiling point.

#3 – Once the boiling point is reached, the water within the wastewater is converted into water vapor, leaving behind the contaminants that were present.
