Produced Waste Water Treatment Hazard Evaluation
A Texas based confectionery contracted our engineering team to evaluate their wastewater treatment operations to determine if the aqueous ammonia and other chemicals used on-site created a flammability hazard. Our engineers completed the evaluation using the applicable NFPA and NEC standards and provided recommendations for their facility.
Our team reviewed the facility’s natural and forced ventilation systems and provided recommendations for gas detection instruments to alert their plant operations team of potentially hazardous conditions that could result from equipment breakdown.
