Paints, Coatings & Adhesives
Wastewater Treatment & Sludge Dewatering for Paints, Coatings & Adhesives
Paint, coatings and adhesives manufacturers use large volumes of water to clean tanks, mixers and fill lines between batches. The resulting washwater can carry pigments, resins, latex, oils, solvents and heavy metals, and it changes with every product and color run. These sticky, high-solids streams are hard to treat and expensive to haul as liquid waste. ECOR provides on-site wastewater treatment, sludge dewatering and filtration services that help manufacturers separate solids, stay compliant and cut disposal costs.
Through laboratory and on-site analysis, our team identifies what's in your wastewater and builds a treatment approach around your products, permit limits and production schedule.
