Do You Enjoy Triple Rinsing? Sean Robbins · May 27, 2021 · Your Containers and Drums? For any cooling tower maintenance, scale control is crucial. Normally scale control is done using liquids that contain antiscalants and corrosion inhibitors. It is a good enough method, but hardly the most convenient. Adding chemicals to the cooling towers, especially the ones on the roof, can be tough. Furthermore, the drums that contain the chemicals are difficult to transport, store, and prepare for recycling. Recycling vs. Reuse Containers Cleaning hazardous chemical containers prior to recycling or disposal can be costly and time-consuming. Most chemicals for scale and corrosion control come in a liquid form so draining and triple rinsing the empty containers for recycling is a must. This presents a few unique problems. Hazardous and reactive chemicals require careful handling and all chemicals require specialized personal protective equipment (PPE). Special arrangements* are often needed for a proper cleaning, and the standards for cleaning, drying, and tagging requires extra manpower, resources, and the proper disposal of the rinse water. So, what is the alternative? Fortunately, a safe and green alternative is now available, with less waste and significantly easier handling.

Local regulations may apply to the collection and proper disposal of rinse water. Also, there are 2 classifications of disposal water to be designated as “hazardous” and “extremely hazardous”. As all containers must also be drip-dried, facility space will be required and properly designated.
