While water may look like it’s pure, simple, clean and ready to be consumed without a second thought, the fact is there are a whole lot of no-see-ums in that clear liquid that could cause a whole lot of grief. We’re not just talking about tap water, although that is a good portion of the water we consume in America. We are also referring to bottled water. The home tap and the bottled water... 

Regenerative Thermal Oxidizers (RTOs) can regenerate the heat of a large thermal mass and are an effective and fuel efficient option. Thermal oxidizers destroy toxic particulates in the air and volatile organic compounds often emitted in industrial process exhausts. They typically do this by capturing heat from an outgoing air stream to preheat incoming air. This often has the effect of reducing operating... 

Bottled water is usually the choice of active on the go people who want to slake their thirst. However same old, same old, can get boring; so innovative souls have taken to kicking up their water in a couple of ways – flavoring it or enhancing it.

Epcon uses several time-honored strategies to abate the formation of NOx, a noxious mixture if the pun may be excused. NOx and Sox emissions are components of acid rain. When mixed with these toxic emissions in the clouds with the presence of water vapor; nitric and sulphuric acid is formed. NOx also is an active ingredient in smog (photochemical ozone). By reacting with VOCs (volatile organic compounds)... 

Looks good, smells good, tastes OK – then it must be OK? Right? If you’re talking about American tap water, just because it looks OK, smells OK and the taste isn’t bad, doesn’t mean it is all right to drink.

Emissions of NOx should be abated or controlled for a number of reasons; as a contributor to smog, the presence of NOx can have serious or even deadly consequences. Nitrogen Oxide is quite prevalent in the Earth’s atmosphere. That said, the “noxious” mixture can be truly noxious as an active ingredient in smog (photochemical ozone) when it becomes a respiratory and eye irritant. NOx helps to... 

With the way things seem to be going on planet Earth, one of the greatest fears people have, aside from wondering whether or not we have enough water, is how polluted is the water? You may be wondering how water gets polluted in the first place. Where does the pollution come from? In most instances there are usually two types of pollution sources – the non-point source and the point source. Not to... 

The right to water is something that most people don’t really think about. They turn the tap on and there it is, free flowing and in most instances relatively plentiful – at least in developed nations. This isn’t the case in other parts of the world. We humans take a lot for granted, and one thing that we abuse on a daily basis is water use. It’s there for us and we don’t...
