Metal Finishing Wash Water

Save Money With Evaporation

Metal finishing is a broad category within the manufacturing sector. The process of cleaning metal components includes the generation of water such as spent machining coolants, parts washer fluids, phosphate and zirconium wash & rinse water. These waste streams will generally include contaminants that will exceed sewer discharge limits, so alternative methods of treatment and disposal will need to be used. In cases where the waste is so hazardous that it needs to be hauled off-site, evaporating the excess water to concentrate the waste can save cash.

Note: The above should be considered as general information for this application. It is important to remember that each application will vary in terms of waste water characteristics, flow rates, as well as water quality requirements of the treated water.
