Like
any other manufacturer, our company has to handle liquids, which might
become hazardous for the environment.
However, as a responsible corporate citizen, BOLZ / EDEL collects
all the industrial waste water centrally in an internal neutralization
system. At the slightest irregularity, all possible drains are automatically
closed and an alarm is activated.
The neutralization system essentially consists of special containers
to collect, treat and thicken the waste water. Furthermore a lime
milk system with attached containers and a filter press are installed.
The solid materials are separated from this filter press and disposed
of as special waste.
All process cycles in this system, which has a weekly neutralization
performance of 5000 litres of nitrate, acid and alkaline water,
are automatically controlled and continuously logged by multiple-dotting
recorders.
Of course the operation of such a system requires the certification
by the trade supervisory board, and the system is subject to continuous
monitoring. Waste water checks by the NTA in Isny (scientific technical
academy Professor Dr. Gruebler) and by the manufacturer of the system
are additional regulations to prevent any environmental impact or
water pollution.
Altogether a high expenditure of time and costs, to which we feel
obligated with regard to the people and to our environment.
