Our system isolates and neutralizes acidic water with added agents and rock media.
System continuously records the effluent’s pH level and alerts the operator when it is out of compliance with regulation.
This system ensures that wastewater discharged into public sewer systems adheres to the necessary pH levels and meets local codes.
Monitors pH, level, temperature, and leak detection 24/7 with electronic monitoring.
Monolithic tank and leakproof construction with choice of interior acid proof liners.
The ParkUSA LabTank® supports responsible waste management in laboratory environments. The neutralization tanks or basins are designed to collect acidic waste and chemically neutralize it before it’s discharged into the sanitary sewer system and to protect laboratory workers and equipment from potential harm caused by acidic wastewater.
Our pH measuring system determines the degree of neutralization by calculating the concentration of hydrogen ions in the wastewater and then treating the wastewater with a neutralizing agent. The neutralized wastewater is then filtered and monitored for compliance with local, state, or federal regulations before it is discharged.
Acidic wastewater flows into the neutralization tank or basin, is neutralized with an agent such as sodium hydroxide or calcium carbonate rock media, then leaves the tank to discharge into sewer system in compliance with local, state, or federal regulations.
The neutralization process occurs through a chemical reaction between the acidic waste and calcium and magnesium carbonate. The degree of neutralization can be measured by the pH system, which determines the concentration of hydrogen ions. When the acidic wastewater comes into contact with neutralization media, a neutralization reaction occurs. The primary component of neutralization media is calcium carbonate, which reacts with the acid to produce calcium ions, water, and carbon dioxide gas. This reaction results in the neutralization of the acid, as the hydrogen ions are consumed by the reaction and the pH of the solution increases towards neutral.
A wastewater pH neutralizing and monitoring system can benefit a wide range of applications where wastewater with varying pH levels is generated.
Medical facilities generate wastewater with varying pH levels from laboratories and other specialized areas where chemicals are used.
School labs and all-around cleaning agents can also contribute to wastewater with varying pH levels.
These industries produce wastewater with various pH levels as a result of their manufacturing processes.
These industries use acidic or alkaline solutions during their processes.
Wastewater generated from these industries can contain chemicals and have varying pH levels.
Extraction and processing of minerals can generate wastewater with varying pH levels.
Neutralizing systems are essential components of many water and wastewater treatment plants.
Battery manufacturing involves the use of various chemicals, which need to be neutralized before discharge.
Some food and beverage processing plants generate wastewater with high acidity or alkalinity due to the use of cleaning agents, additives, and byproducts.
With over 35 years of experience, we offer proven water management innovation, technology, and service.
