A Whitepaper from 2H
The White Paper offers:
- An evaluation of the carbon footprint created by modular plastic media – i.e. from manufacture/production through operational use in Trickling Filters. The figures provided cover the carbon cost accrued during:
- Production of PP (Polypropylene) and Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) used in the manufacture of plastic media
- Installation of plastic media in Trickling Filter systems
- A notional 25-year operational lifetime
- A brief discussion of the environmental impact of modular plastic media Trickling Filters when used in standard wastewater treatment applications – i.e. BOD (Carbonaceous effluent) and Ammonia (Nitrification) treatment systems.
- And the potential use – and impact – of modular plastic media in denitrification applications.
Trickling Filters built from structured plastic media offer low-energy, low-carbon and cost effective wastewater treatment – that's a fact.
A Guide to Sustainability and Environmental Impact
Whatever side of the sales equation you're on – customer or supplier/contractor – sustainability and environmental impact are increasingly important factors in the process.
Customers want to be sure they're investing in wastewater treatment systems and products which will reduce energy consumption, cut carbon emissions and save money.
To help meet this need, many RFPs now require suppliers and contractors to provide details of the environmental impact, including CO₂ cost/footprint, of their proposed processes and products.
A new White Paper from 2H Water Technologies – 'Modular Plastic Media and the Environment' – provides step-by-step, objective analysis and verifiable data on the carbon cost of modular plastic media at every stage of the product's lifecycle, from the processes and materials used during manufacture to installation and a notional 25-year operational lifetime in Trickling Filter applications.
