Many businesses produce waste water streams. Lube-Tech Liquid Recycling specializes in the disposal of waste streams that exceed the limits for disposal at public waste water treatment plants but are exempt from hazardous waste regulations. Wastewater treatment and disposal is an important part of protecting and preserving our water resources. Your state’s Pollution Control Agency plays an active role in this need through a variety of programs. We recommend you familiarize yourself with the specific regulations placed on waste water treatment and disposal for your district.
Common Types of Waste Water Include:
| Water soluble coolants |
| Water based cleaners and floor wash |
| Consider replacing unusable antifreeze with long-life formulations. |
| Water based parts washers |
| Oil/water separates, known as “traps” |
| Fuel oil/water or gasoline/water |
| Antifreeze – ethylene glycol or propylene glycol |
| Water based paint booths |
| Deburring waste water and sludge |
| Site remediation waste waters |
*Be careful to not mix different types of waste waters. It is very possible that each waste water stream requires individual treatment.
