CWI’s recently perfected liquid waste treatment process has moved The U.S. Clean Water Act, Amendment, zero discharge promotion, a major step closer to reality. The goal of the Clean Water Act was to make U.S. waterways safe to fish and swim by 1983 and, to achieve zero discharge of pollutants to waterways by 1985, but zero discharge has been virtually unobtainable in many sectors. CWI’s technological breakthrough now makes it possible to surpass these goals in most sectors.
Currently CWI can process almost all types of industrial and domestic liquid wastes to meet local and state disposal requirements. Where there is a need for recycling, within process parameters CWI will attempt to satisfy those requirements.
The CWI equipment treats the liquid waste by means of Accelerated Electrochemical Oxidation and has a retention time of less than 10 minutes, lending itself to high flow requirements in a small footprint configuration. This is extremely important where mobility is a factor or where space is at a premium. Due to the flexibility of the system, effluent quality can be adjusted to meet any desired level of purity to suit either introduction back to the environment, recycling or drinking water.
CWI does not sell its liquid waste treatment equipment, but offers clients the opportunity to use its unique technology under licence and charges for the treatment service on a metered volume and royalty basis, thus removing all concerns related to equipment capital costs and maintenance.
Prior to contracting to service a waste stream, CWI and the client will establish the required criteria with regard to effluent quality and volumes. This then sets the basis for the per gallon fee charged.
The fees charged for this management service includes all operational costs, expendables, maintenance, sludge handling and disposal. Processing of the metered liquid waste can cost as little as $.015 cents per gallon for removal of the more easily treated pollutants. Costs only increase pro rata with the toxicity and complexity of the waste being treated.
