Today we continue Industrial Water Week 2021 with Wastewater Thursday. Scaling up Nation, if you don\\u2019t see how awesome being a water treater is, you are not doing it right. Industrial Water Treaters are superheroes. You are a superhero!

Like many of you, when I started in my career, I couldn\\u2019t believe what my clients were throwing out, but once I realized that our clients were paying us so they could\\xa0 stay open, it shifted my thinking. I came to realize that without the help from industrial water treaters, our clients would be forced to shut down for non-compliance.\\xa0

Thank you for observing, measuring, mapping, calculating, testing...retesting, examining, waiting, and serving your clients\\u2019 systems so they can keep doing what they need to do. Thank you for being part of the most incredible industry in the world, industrial water treatment!

Your roadside friend, as you travel from client to client.\\xa0

Quotes:

\\u201cIt\\u2019s not a gangster, it\\u2019s a gang stirrer.\\u201d - Trace Blackmore

\\u201cWe can add inorganic Polymers to our bloomer phase and we\\u2019re not gonna precipitate Zinc with an inorganic Polymer. So you really need to ask the customer: \\u201cWhat am I trying to remove?\\u201d, \\u201cWhat are my problems?\\u201d those are real issues that are the keys to sending up a correct jar test.\\u201d \\xa0-Kevin Cope
