Looking to maximize efficiency while minimizing shipping costs? Keen on shrinking your company's and clients' carbon footprint? Concerned about the complexities of transporting hazardous liquid materials? Picture this: You're tasked with moving a three-hundred-gallon tote of corrosives to the twelfth floor of an office building. Or perhaps you've encountered the challenge of maneuvering a two-hundred-pound tote across pristine mahogany floors, all while hoping against leaks on the way to the cooling tower. If these scenarios resonate with you, our latest episode is a must-listen!
Join us as Blaine Nagao, CWT, Senior Director of Smart Release Technology at Dober, answers a multitude of questions about how solid technology works and how it differs from liquid technology. Blaine debunks old misconceptions about solid technologies. Learn how to match the right equipment with the products you\u2019re using and gain insight into controlling as many variables as possible upfront by adopting solid technology.
Discover how solid technology can eliminate the need for hefty shipping fees, significantly reduce your carbon footprint, and save money for both your company and your clients.
Tune in for an educational, insightful, and positive discussion that could revolutionize your bottom line.
Understanding the Formula for Cost Savings with Solid Chemistry Technology
Blaine explains that the cost savings from using solid chemistry technology come from several key areas:
Let's break these down:
Blaine's Formula
Blaine suggests considering the total cost of ownership rather than just the upfront cost. The formula he uses involves calculating the savings in the following areas:
Total Savings = Savings in Shipping + Savings in Storage + Savings in Risk Management
Let's put some hypothetical numbers into this formula to illustrate:
Assuming these savings over a year:
Annual Savings = ($500 \\times 12) + ($100 \\times 12) + ($150 \\times 12)
Annual Savings = $6,000 + $1,200 + $1,800
Annual Savings = $9,000
By switching to solid chemistry technology, the company could potentially save $9,000 annually. This example illustrates how the cumulative savings in different areas add up to significant cost reductions.

Summary
Solid chemistry technology offers significant cost savings by reducing shipping costs, storage space requirements, and risks associated with spills and accidents. By focusing on the total cost of ownership, as Blaine suggests, companies can see the broader financial benefits of transitioning to solid chemistry solutions.

Drop By Drop with James\xa0
In today\u2019s segment, I have a \u201cWhat If\u201d for you. What if nitrite drops in a closed loop but conductivity remains the same and the makeup water meter shows zero makeup was used? What could cause this curious pattern? Is nitrite reacting or being consumed in some way? Could the makeup water meter miss low-flow makeup? Could unwanted microbiological activity be the culprit? Have you thought of all the ways nitrite could change in a system and how other parameters may or may not change as well?\xa0
