Did you know you can use an evaporator to reduce your Hazmat?


According to an easy to understand article from Poly Products,
only pure clean water is evaporated from their  EVAPORATIVE TANK™. All impurities are left behind and accumulate until the point of solution saturation. Then the solids fall out and form sludge. The sludge is scavenged out by the filter press. 


"Generators can use evaporators to reduce the volume of their hazardous waste under the generator treatment requirements. However, if there is a release of hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituent to the air or the environment, this would be considered disposal."

So as a means to reduce the amount of Hazmat you need to dispose of, by evaporating out water or other non-hazardous materials, evaporation is a great method.
