KOMAX STATIC MIXERS AID IN COMPLIANCE WITH NEW USEPA STANDARD FOR LEVELS
OF ARSENIC IN DRINKING WATER
As of January 23rd,
2006, the United States Environmental Protection Agency
lowered the National Standard for Levels of Arsenic in
Drinking Water to 10 parts per billion (ppb) from the
previous standard of 50 ppb established in 1975.
Since this new
Standard was promulgated, KOMAX has received a
significant number of inquiries regarding utilization of
our Static Mixers to aid in initial strategies for
compliance with this new Standard (i. e., blending
high arsenic source water with clean water as a
temporary solution).
The majority of these
inquiries have resulted in orders and we expect this
trend to continue as long-term strategies for compliance
with the Standard are implemented (i. e., blending of
coagulants with arsenic-contaminated source water prior
to secondary treatment)
