Work sample done by Jeff Kocian - pH adjustment for hydro demolition jobs brochure
1. Knowing how to manage water from
When the NYSDOT and NYSDEC signed a memorandum of understanding in 2012 on the treating
and discharge of hydro-demolition wastewater, the requirements for bridge contractors became
a lot more challenging. Many contractors were just not sure how they were going to comply and still
be competitive. Rain For Rent has identifed the following items that will help contractors achieve
*
Understand the Environmental Requirements.
The NYDOT and NYSDEC have established strict discharge
requirements. The discharge limits for pH are between 6.5 and
8.5. For turbidity, discharge cannot exceed 50 NTUs.
*
Reduce the pH Levels.
Using a Carbon Dioxide based pH adjustment system will
efficiently, quickly and cost effectively reduce pH to well within
the guidelines established by NY State.
*
Using Carbon Dioxide is the safest way to lower pH.
Most acids are hazardous materials, often requiring special
employee training and contingency plans for accidents & spills.
Carbon Dioxide is non-hazardous and environmentally friendly.
Settle Those Solids.
and achieve your discharge requirements of 50 NTUs or less.
By designing a solids settling system, using weir and
frac tanks to remove the majority of solids, and bag filters to
"polish" the treated water, we can help you maintain compliance
