How should a shop's growth plan factor into wastewater system sizing today so they're not stuck rebuilding it five years from now?

Steven BudayGUEST
now?Yeah, I mean, it's, it's, um, you know, that's, that's something that's gonna be a little bit, you know, um, that would play into the, um, kind of that upstream chemistry.

Steven BudayGUEST
Um, so the upstream chemistry, knowing what your rinse overflows are, um, and knowing how you might change those either to optimize how much water you're, you're using on rinses, making sure you have good rinses, all those kind of things.

Steven BudayGUEST
Um, one of the things I encourage people to do is, uh, uh, just kind of, uh, make a map, um, kind of a water balance and say, "Okay, well these are everything that's contributing to wastewater.

Steven BudayGUEST
This is the flow rates that they would be going to wastewater." Or if they're in the, in the case of, uh, like concentrates or tanks that get dumped, what's the dump frequency? Um, you know, so that...

Steven BudayGUEST
So then you kinda have that starting point, and then you say, "Okay, well I know I wanna pitch this other job," or, "I wanna add..." And so you can, you have that starting place.

It's tough to see what's really coming down the road, 'cause I imagine it's, it's constantly evolving, but what, what are you seeing that could have an impact on anodizing?
