What Is Liquid Waste ?
At the risk of sounding obvious, liquid waste is all waste that exists as a liquid rather than either a gas or a solid. Since the term encompasses all waste in liquid form, it includes both waste produced as a liquid and waste that has been converted into a liquid for handling. Similarly, it includes both liquid waste that emerges from a single source such as industrial wastes being pumped out through pipes and liquid waste that has no single source such as run-off caused by rainfall. Other common examples of liquid waste include both human and animal excreta plus household wastewater coming from bathing, dishwashing, and a range of other domestic activities.
How Can Liquid Waste Be Removed
Containment
First, the business needs to set up a system for holding the liquid waste once it has been produced or converted into its liquid form. This ensures that the liquid waste is not simply dumped in the environment with bad consequences for both the local region and the business down the road due to legal liabilities. Depending on the business and the liquid waste that it produces, the waste is often stored in either barrels or tanks that can be picked up by waste management services.
