Water and energy are closely intertwined: Conserving one inevitably conserves the other. Similar disciplines drive water and energy savings and help communities, businesses and households operate more sustainably.
Because dredged material and other material that is defined as fill are also defined as “pollutants,” the overlap has generated controversy over whether discharges of certain dredged or fill material must be authorized by a permit under only the Clean Water Act Section 404 or under both Sections 402 and 404.
The multi-pollutant control ReACT™ technology is a completely dry scrubbing system based on adsorption of SO2, SO3, and Hg and reduction of NOx to N2 on activated coke in a moving bed, with regeneration of the coke for return to the adsorber, and production of saleable byproduct, such as sulfuric acid, from desorbed sulfur rich gases.
Global Climate Change is a growing concern as organizations adjust to ever-changing disclosure mandates, while trying to gain a competitive advantage through implementation of climate strategies to reduce GHG emissions. Towards this end, many organizations are trying to forge ahead utilizing manual processes and disparate legacy systems that only provide limited support for assessment of current conditions and hinder the development of forward looking business strategies.
Read this paper to learn why a robust information management strategy is needed to support your organization’s overall climate strategy and GHG inventory management plan.
Organizations worldwide are looking for ways to reduce their environmental footprint, efficiently monitor greenhouse gas emissions, limit costly workplace injuries and mitigate business disruption from unplanned incidents. Download this paper to learn about a practical, hands-on approach for justifying your next sustainability IT investment.
As the White House and Congress shift to more stringent environmental policy, and the EPA increases climate change legislation, implementing a refrigerant compliance plan is more critical to your supply chain and manufacturing operations than ever before. Learn more…
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is placing stricter limits on the formation of disinfection byproducts (DBPs) in water treatment facilities. The new limits pose a serious challenge to plant operators because the most critical (highest) areas of the water system must be sampled and each site must stand independent of system-wide averaging.

For about 50 years, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were commonly used in industrial
materials including, caulking, cutting oils, inks, paints and as dielectric fluids in electrical
equipment such as transformers and capacitors. Concerns over health effects led to a North
American ban of manufacturing PCBs in 1977. By the mid-1980s, an initiative was started to
clean up contaminated areas and to phase out PCB-containing equipment and products that
were still in use. This cleanup effort continues today.
The purpose of tuning loops is to reduce errors and thus provide more efficient operation that returns quickly
to steady-state efficiency after upsets, errors or changes in load. State-of-the-art manufacturers in process
and discrete industries have invested in advanced control software, manufacturing execution software and
modeling software to “tune” everything from control loops to supply chains, thus driving higher quality and
productivity.

White papers are one of the most misunderstood, miswritten and misused marketing tools available. While many companies think they need a white paper, few manage to write, design or use them to their full potential. This is unfortunate, because – written and applied well – white papers are one of the most powerful tools in the sales and marketing toolkit.
