TOXICITY REDUCTION EVALUATIONS

Municipal and industrial wastewater treatment facilities must meet strict discharge requirements set by local and national regulations. These requirements often include toxicity testing limits, which ensure that the wastewater does not harm aquatic life in receiving streams and rivers. Our Toxicity Reduction Evaluations aim to help facilities identify and reduce the substances causing toxicity test failures in their final effluent. Our process begins by reviewing operational and test data to determine potential causes of toxicity test failures. This step helps us develop a clear understanding of the facility's operations and identify any areas that may need improvement. We then use a systematic process to investigate, characterize, and identify the causes of toxicity test failures. This approach ensures that we leave no stone unturned in our quest to identify the source of the problem. At BT Solutions, we have specialized laboratory procedures that have been developed over the past 30 years, first at the Shealy Environmental/Shealy Consulting Toxicity Laboratory and recently at the BT Solutions laboratory. These procedures are designed specifically to assess toxicity test failures and are backed by years of research and experience.Our team has successfully identified and resolved toxicity issues caused by a wide range of industrial process waters. We have worked with facilities across various municipal wastewater facilities, drinking water facilities, and a wide range of industries. Our experience has taught us that every facility is unique and requires a customized approach. We take the time to understand each facility's specific needs and work closely with the team to develop a plan of action that fits their unique situation. At BT Solutions, we are committed to helping our clients meet their discharge requirements and operate sustainably. Our Toxicity Reduction Evaluations are just one of the many services we offer to help facilities achieve this goal. With our expertise, technology, and commitment to sustainability, we are confident that we can help your facility reduce its toxicity and improve its overall wastewater treatment performance.
