Approaching Zero Discharge in Surface Finishing : Capsule Report

Provides technical guidance to surface finishers, environmental managers & decision makers on control technologies & process changes for approaching zero discharge (AZD). AZD is a key theme underlying the Strategic Goals Program, a coop. effort among the EPA, the Amer. Electroplaters & Surface Finishers Soc., the Nat. Assoc. of Metal Finishers, & the Metal Finishing Suppliers Assoc. to test & promote innovative ideas for improved environmental management within the metal finishing industry. This report presents information & strategies for approaching zero discharge for concentrated fluids & associated rinsewaters from surface finishing manufacturing. This focus is intended to minimize discharges of spent &/or underused process fluids.Oppelt, E.
