Wastewater Evaporation

Chemical companies can evaporate and fully recycle wastewater – sustainably

Evaporating wastewater can be expensive and energy-intensive, but it doesn’t have to be. Some companies choose to evaporate wastewater because it is the only feasible option – but solving the wastewater issue is only one aspect. Manufacturers can actually recoup their investment within 3 to 5 years if they re-use the condensate as process water.
