216 Industrial Water Week 2021: Boiler Tuesday
Welcome to the podcast where we water treaters learn and celebrate together! I\u2019m your podcast host, Trace Blackmore. Yesterday we celebrated Pretreatment Monday and today it is Boiler Tuesday!\xa0
The dictionary definition of a boiler is quite dull and uninspiring, but for me, the boiler has been my backstage pass to some of the coolest manufacturing companies in the world! Boilers have allowed me to peek behind the curtain and learn how things are made and have allowed me to indulge my curiosity in ways I never could have imagined.\xa0
Join me as we learn and celebrate the boiler today and don\u2019t forget to post your daily \xa0Industrial Water Week mini-challenges photos by tagging them with #IndustrialWaterWeek or #IWW21.
Your roadside friend, as you travel from client to client.\xa0
