Borehole TreatmentMeeting Sewer Discharge Requirements
Industrial facilities discharging to municipal sewer systems must meet specific pre-treatment standards to protect the receiving wastewater treatment plant and comply with local ordinances. Our pre-treatment systems are designed to remove pollutants at the source, helping industries avoid surcharges, penalties, and potential discharge violations.
Meet local sewer use bylaws and discharge permits with reliable pre-treatment systems.
Explore Pretreatment ComplianceAvoid municipal surcharges by reducing BOD, TSS, and other parameters before discharge.
Explore Efficiency GainsQuantify and cut trade-effluent surcharges with a targeted pre-treatment business case.
Explore Cost SavingsProtect municipal infrastructure and treatment processes from harmful industrial discharges.
Explore Pretreatment ProtectionRecover valuable materials and reduce waste disposal requirements through effective pre-treatment.
