Considerations for effective wastewater treatment in metal finishing

Solutions enable industry and municipalities to address challenges of water scarcity, water affordability, energy efficiency and regulatory compliance.

Around the world, utilities and companies are facing complex water challenges, from ensuring safe drinking water to treating industrial wastewater. Growing challenges such as PFAS contamination, emissions, and energy consumption require innovative solutions.

How beverage manufacturers and bottlers are using advanced technology to use water more efficiently, increase safety, and exceed effluent requirements.

During construction of a new convention center in Muskegon, Michigan, PFAS, also known as forever chemicals, was detected in the water being pumped out to build the foundation. Construction Simplified contacted Evoqua Water Technologies, a Xylem company, which quickly delivered a mobile solution that treated 21 million gallons (79,500 cubic meters) of water. By the end of the project, the mobile treatment solution had removed the PFAS to non-detect levels.
