A global firefighting equipment manufacturer used a plant-based, environmentally friendly coolant in their machine shop that was mixed with softened city water for a proper ratio. Due to the alloys in the brass, the company was limited to the types of coolant that would best suit their needs. The plant-based coolant provided an increase in tool life, resulting in significant savings, but it also posed several problems for the machines.

A West Coast refinery turned to Evoqua for help in providing a more consistent and reliable quality of purified boiler feedwater. The refinery, using up to 1,500 gpm of demineralized boiler makeup water, was experiencing a variety of problems including aging demineralizers, pending environmental legislation, excessive operation costs, wide variations of raw water quality, and limited capital to address these issues.
