In today’s industrial environment, companies simply cannot ignore the peripherals components of their processes: the gaseous emissions, the liquid effluents, the solid and liquid residues that don’t directly contribute to the bottom line, but which can certainly detract from it. Sometimes, a simple change in the incoming feedstock to a less toxic chemical can decrease the hazardous identity of the process residues.
With PROCESS’ strong background in process engineering, our approach to environmental issues is to help facilities obtain and maintain compliance with all applicable environmental regulations and permit limits, while providing the operating flexibility that is needed to meet processing and throughput objectives.
Let us help you assess, inventory, design and/or evaluate (AIDE) the inputs, the outputs, and the internal workings of your system, and provide you with the recommendations you need to better manage the entire process, possibly saving money in the long run to protect your hard earned bottom line!
