Environmental Operations

Simplifying your daily environmental challenges

Some things are essential for running a facility, and water tops the list. It must be readily available to protect against fires. You may also need it for cooling purposes or for specific uses within your production process. You could try to contract with the nearest municipality to meet your needs, but that could be difficult and cost intensive.

While focusing on the various types of water coming into your operations, you are also concerned with what leaves those operations. Certain things require proper disposal or treatment prior to discharge — things like industrial wastewater, sewage, vent gases, by-products, liquid or solid waste.

Are you looking for an easier way? Meet Dow Environmental Operations Services. We can simplify your daily environmental challenges related to the water coming into your operations and the by-products and/or wastes leaving them. Our services for tenants at our manufacturing sites include the following:

Water Supplies — We start with the basics, a mandatory firewater distribution system and fire protection water for every tenant at our sites. From there, we can offer different types of water to meet your specific needs. These include:

• Potable Water, which may be generated on-site or purchased from a third-party and distributed to the site.
• Untreated River Water or Fresh Water, which can be used as cooling water, utility water, cooling tower make-up water and fire protection water.
• Treated River/Fresh Water, which undergoes additional treatment like solids removal, to allow the water to be used for process cooling or in the manufacturing of products.

Wastewater Treatment — We can conduct industrial wastewater treatment, including the very specialized, biological treatment of sweet water or water with high salt concentrations. We can also help you to meet your requirements for sewage water treatment, rainwater/storm water discharge and outfall management.

Thermal Treatment — We can treat many liquids or solids, with technology that varies depending on the site. Rotary kilns can be used to incinerate liquids, solids, or vent gases, while incinerators can be used to burn liquids or vent gases.
