Consulting & Permitting
|
"Consulting
and permitting is the integrating service we
provide–it pulls together all of the other
things that we do. Essentially, when we work
with a client on a consulting basis, we’re
not trying to sell them stack testing or rent
equipment. We’re trying to find what their
problem is and the best way to solve it."

Evans, Vice-President Regulatory Affairs

With
federal and state environmental regulations hovering over your
industry–hiring a consultant may seem like having one
more person telling you what you should or shouldn’t do. At

and training–we don’t just tell you what you need
to do to comply, we have the resources and experience to help
you do it. We know the ins and outs of permitting and compliance
issues for dozens of industries including:

Compliance
is only part of the picture. Process problems cost money. Clean
Air Engineering consulting services will reduce those costs--
from simple process tune-ups to complicated process problems--
improving process efficiency and your bottom line. And we’re
not afraid to team up with other industries and disciplines in
order to help develop the process improvements you need. We specialize
in several types of environmental consulting including: |

"We
solved a mist problem for a customer who had water
droplets forming inside a stack where there was SO2 in
the gas stream–the resulting sulfuric acid was
eating away at the interior of their stack. We designed
special mist eliminators to solve their problem–but
had no experience working with plastics or injection
molding. We successfully partnered with a plastic
manufacturer to develop the injection mold forms.
These "mist eliminators" are now a regular
product offering."

Process
Consulting
In many cases, emissions represent lost product
or raw materials. Data from a properly designed emissions monitoring
program gives you the information you need to improve process
efficiency while maximizing throughput. Clean Air Engineering
process engineers have the experience and capability to evaluate
and modify process operations in response to your need to:
- Improve
products and production rate
- Reduce
downtime
- Lower
costs
- Determine
process limits
- React
to product and raw material changes
- Select
and purchase equipment
- Upgrade
or modify equipment to extend operating life
- Inventory
emission sources
- Improve
and streamline pollution control equipment

and in national and international permitting requirements. Our services
include:

Assurance Audit Programs
- Continuous
Compliance Planning

Release Evaluations
