H2O Tech’s Comprehensive Solutions
Your Problems: Water is an integral part of crop production and processing from start to finish. Nutrients in the soil, including nitrates and phosphorus, can become contaminates in the water and create problems later in the waste stream that are costly and difficult to restore. Once the crops are harvested, they harbor a wide variety of additional contaminants such as sediment; inorganic fertilizers, herbicides and insecticides; organic matter such as animal wastes and decaying plant material; irrigation residues like salts and trace metals; and microorganisms. You are interested in meeting compliance levels while ensuring that you make the most efficient use of scarce and expensive water resources. In addition, you want to minimize the amount of solid waste that needs to be disposed.
Efficient Solutions: By developing a creative water and wastewater management strategy from the start, problems can be eliminated beginning with intelligent use of soil management techniques. H2O Tech can improve the organic structure of the soil with customized additions of chemicals and polymers, allowing the plants to more efficiently take up water from the soil and to neutralize inherent problems with the soil chemistry.
Once the crops are being processed, H2O Tech’s scientists and technicians can develop a highly customized approach to water treatment and management to deal with both organic and inorganic contaminants. We understand the complexities of moving water through the mechanical, chemical, and biological stages of treatment, and H2O Tech specializes in using biological agents in conjunction with flocculants and coagulants to make water treatment cost effective. Many times, the wastewater is clean enough to be used for additional irrigation processes. In addition, H2O Tech can greatly reduce the water content, and therefore the volume and weight, of any solid wastes that result from your process.
Why H2O Tech? Because you want your entire problem solved and optimized with one phone call, from one company you can trust. Our experts come from your industry; we solve complex problems quickly, we speak your language, and we know that your priorities are from a business profitability standpoint. We can design, build, or repair the mechanical system, optimize the chemical treatment (often reducing the treatment chemical quantity needs by 50% or more), provide continuous monitoring and optimization, and make sure that your plant is not only in compliance, but that you are not letting dollars get washed away that could be going to your bottom line.
