Could This CO? Technology Revolutionize Your Water Treatment Operations?
Water management is one of the biggest challenges on construction sites. Contaminated runoff, high pH levels, and chemical-heavy treatments can slow down operations, increase costs, and create environmental risks. But what if there was a smarter, safer, and more sustainable solution?
TOMCO Systems is leading the charge with an innovative approach—using carbon dioxide (CO?) to transform water treatment. Industry experts Jeff Holyoak and Camila Hess explain how CO? injection is replacing traditional acid-based treatments, making water management more efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly.
A Smarter Way to Control pH
Construction projects generate wastewater that often has a high pH, requiring treatment before discharge. Traditional methods rely on strong acids like sulfuric or hydrochloric acid—effective but hazardous to handle. CO?, on the other hand, provides a natural, controlled way to lower pH without the safety risks or excessive chemical waste.
By dissolving CO? into water, it forms carbonic acid, which gently neutralizes alkalinity. This process reduces the need for harsh chemicals while offering precise pH control. The result? Safer job sites, lower treatment costs, and a more sustainable water management strategy.
Cutting Costs, Boosting Sustainability
One of the biggest advantages of CO? injection is its cost-effectiveness. Unlike liquid acids, which require extensive storage, handling precautions, and disposal measures, CO? is easy to transport and apply. Construction companies using this system report reduced chemical expenses, less equipment corrosion, and improved operational efficiency.
Beyond cost savings, CO? treatment aligns with modern sustainability goals. It minimizes chemical discharge into the environment and supports responsible water reuse—critical in an industry facing increasing regulations on wastewater disposal.
Proven Success in the Field
From stormwater management to concrete washout treatment, CO?-based water solutions are proving their worth on job sites. TOMCO Systems has helped construction teams streamline compliance, reduce environmental impact, and improve water quality—without compromising performance.
As the industry pushes for greener, more efficient practices, CO? is emerging as a key player in the future of water treatment. For construction professionals looking to optimize site operations, cut costs, and stay ahead of regulations, this technology offers a clear advantage.
