Wastewater Treatment
Potable Water
We understand that you can get your chemicals from just about any vendor. That’s why we’re much more interested in WHY you’re using certain chemicals. Do they represent the lowest cost to treat? Have you considered non-hazardous or non-DOT regulated alternatives to mitigate your risk? Are you producing the least amount of waste solids for disposal and can these solids be beneficially reused? Are you having issues with disinfectant byproducts? We can help you answer these questions and find the custom solutions that optimize your plant performance without compromise.
Water Treatment
We understand that your job is much more than taking out the garbage. You help to manage a living, breathing system filled with complex biological growth and a countless number of variables that can lead to the success or failure of your treatment system. You are the first line of defense between your organization’s image and a PR nightmare within the communities you serve. Having the right chemistry to improve the consistency of your plant and keep your effluent within NPDES permit limits day-in and day-out is vital. Let us assure you have the right chemical tools at your disposal so you can leave your shift each night knowing everything is under control and contingencies in place. You have skin in the game, and so do we. We partner with you to guarantee your system is set up for optimal performance.
Coagulant Selection
Aluminum and iron are the work horses of almost all inorganic coagulants. We select products with the highest metal concentration and the least effect on pH depression, alkalinity consumption, and sludge production. For this reason, we represent a full line of aluminum and iron salts, polyaluminum chloride blends, aluminum chlorhydrate, and sodium aluminate. We also offer clay, tannin, and organic coagulant blends for added flexibility.
Polymer Selection
Find the perfect charge, structure, and molecular weight for your flocculation/settling aid application and dewater with maximum efficiency. We represent the full line of polydadmacs from SNF Polydyne in both dry and emulsion options.
Hydrogen Sulfide Removal
Nothing causes more customer complaints and corrosion issues within your distribution system than that pesky rotten egg smell. We offer a number of iron salt and oxidizer solutions to bind hydrogen sulfide before it can create havoc.
Source Water Protection
The life blood of your water treatment plant may be the rivers, streams, and lakes that dot and intersect your community. We help to control and eliminate nutrients and pollutants such as phosphorus, nitrogen, TSS and BOD to assure your surface waters remain clear of harmful algae blooms and remain a viable source for potable use for generations to come.
Distribution Corrosion Control
We understand your budget is limited when it comes to replacing a broken and aging infrastructure. Protect your community assets with the right orthophosphate blend and at the right price.

Coagulant and Flocculation Aid Selection
Nothing clogs your filters or causes you more headaches than poor settling floc. Increased TSS and overflow particulate within your clarifiers can blow your permit faster than a bad day at the races. Consequently, we offer a full line of iron and aluminum based coagulants to supplement biological upsets and give you a buffer when plant conditions go south. We also offer a full suite of polymers to decrease settling time and improve immediate performance in your clarifiers.
Nutrient Removal
Removal of phosphorus and nitrogen is the primary function of any wastewater treatment plant. Whether you need a supplemental carbon source to improve denitrification or are looking for the most effective chemistry to polish phosphorus from your effluent, we can help. Our mobile lab allows us to jar test to confirm the right chemistry for your unique plant conditions.
Sludge Dewatering
Disposal of waste activated sludge from your system can be one of the most expensive variables in your operation. Your organization has spent millions of dollars on your dewatering press or centrifuge. Now it’s time to assure you have the perfect polymer with the perfect charge, structure, and molecular weight for your equipment. Increasing your cake solids and retention rate means you’re hauling away more sludge and less water.
Heavy Metals Removal
Whether you’re involved in chemical plating, etching, steel picking, printing, or any number of other industries, your organization is always under the watchful eye of the EPA and DEP. We have chemistries that assure nuisance metals never become just that…a nuisance.
Odor Control
Hydrogen sulfide or just an unpleasant odor, your operation can be a risk to workers and the community at large. Staying under the radar while you provide an invaluable—and often unappreciated—service is a must. Protect your employees and improve your community outreach with our full line of iron salts, oxidizers, and other chemistries to mask or bind odors before they become a problem.
