Do you know the financial cost of not complying with EPA standards for disposing of your air compressors condensate? The EPA penalties for non-compliance can be staggering.
Depending upon the state, first-time violations can range from $2,500 - $25,000 per day
Environment
Unfortunately, approximately eighty-five percent of companies in the U.S. using compressed air are out of EPA compliance and don't realize it. That's nearly 1.3M units, illegally dumping oil and chemical-laced condensate one drop at a time into our sewers, contaminating millions of gallons of groundwater every day. This can easily be fixed by installing an Oil-Water Separator.
The EPA's Clean Water Act mandates that the compressed air oil carryover is contained. Using a Clean Resources oil-water separator, we can assure our customers they are in compliance and reduce oil pollution.
EPA and the Clean Water Act
Clean Resources Oil Water Separators sets the industry standard for clean condensate, which no one else has been able to match. So, what are the limits on dumping oil-laced condensate into the environment (sewer, ground, rivers, lakes)? In some states and cities, Illinois, New Orleans, and Chicago, as an example, the limit is 15 ppm.
Due to the Clean Water Act (CWA) amendments in 1972, each state and local municipality or water reclamation district works together within the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 40—Part 279—Standards for the Management of Used Oil, to determine the appropriate wastewater management program and standards.
Criminal Provisions of Compressed Air Oil Carryover
What are the penalties, and are they a big deal? Even the slightest misstep can be costly, both criminally and financially. Fines begin at $2,500 per day with the possibility of 1-year incarceration.
