No matter the industry, wastewater is a reality.
Chemical plants, consumer goods manufacturers and countless others all generate waste streams as part of their processes. These streams must be treated. whether to recycle and reuse the water, or to bring them within regulatory limits for safe discharge.
Filtration is a vital part of that treatment. From removing suspended solids to improving the efficiency of downstream systems, filtration helps facilities stay compliant, reduce disposal costs and keep operations running smoothly.
The cost of falling behind
For many facilities, regulatory compliance is one of the biggest drivers of wastewater management. A manufacturer recently experienced this firsthand when the city lowered its allowable limits for oil and grease discharge. The facility soon found itself out of compliance and unable to discharge wastewater until it could prove it met the new standards. In the meantime, the company was forced to pay significant costs to have its wastewater hauled offsite for treatment and disposal.
Sparkling Clear Industries (SCI) collaborated with the customer to propose a solution, developing an onsite treatment system complete with operator training. Its solution has provided a path forward that balances both regulatory requirements and financial operational realities.
Filtration at the core
For over 40 years, SCI has specialized in filtration. That expertise spans over a host of industries, from petrochemical and chemical manufacturing to household goods, hair care products, breweries and even car washes. Whilst the applications may vary, filtration plays a common role in helping businesses manage byproducts, stay compliant with regulations and improve operational efficiency.
SCI maintains one of the largest inventories of filter aids in Texas, including perlite and diatomaceous earth. These consumables are critical for equipment such as filter presses, enabling them to create dry, manageable cakes, reducing the volume of the waste, which translates into real disposal cost savings for facilities.
Beyond filter aids, SCI stocks bag filters, sand filters and other key products that can be deployed immediately. By keeping this inventory on hand and offering same-day delivery in the Houston area, the company helps facilities avoid downtime, meet regulatory deadlines and sidestep the costs of waiting on backorders.
Capability through partnerships
Not every wastewater challenge can be solved with off-the-shelf products. Heavy metals, chemical byproducts or high-contaminant applications often require advanced system engineering. SCI has built strong partnerships with leading wastewater equipment manufacturers. By combining both SCI’s filtration knowledge and robust inventory with its partners’ specialized systems and training, the company is able to provide its customers with complete, scalable solutions.
Reliable, nimble and ready
With a seasoned team and a strong inventory, SCI is built to respond to needs quickly. Whether supplying consumables for filtration applications, delivering bag filters in an emergency or working alongside an OEM to implement a more complex solution, making sure customers have what they need to keep their processes rolling.
For four decades, its business has been filtration. As wastewater requirements tighten across industries, SCI is ready to help customers stay compliant, efficient and confident.
