Pollution prevention for industrial water/wastewater facilities
Conference

OSTI ID:20002238
In the world of environmental engineering, a popular phrase is pollution prevention. Real pollution prevention requires implementation of real projects. This presentation addresses the subject of converting environmental liabilities into opportunities in the areas of water and wastewater treatment. The authors cite three specific examples of real projects, two of which are for the steel industry and the third from the automobile manufacturing industry. All of these projects have common traits: they all represent real pollution prevention and they all entail real quantifiable net savings contrasted with the status quo. They also tend to be motivated both by economics and by environmental compliance.
