Leaking wastewater line

Abandoned contamination sites include old garbage dumps and industrial production residues, contaminants from industrial facilities, areas in the vicinity of smoke stacks and discharge pipes, the concomitant contaminations and consequences of two world wars, military installations of the past and present, leaking wastewater lines, and buildings that were constructed with materials that have adverse effects on human health. 

Similarly, routine maintenance or replacement of process lines in the wastewater treatment facility would be work covered under paragraph (p). Remediation efforts to clean up leaks at the tank farms are covered under paragraphs (b) through (o) [1]. 

Because phosphorus is transported and stored under a water blanket, phossy water is a raw waste material at phosphorus-consuming plants. Another source of phossy wastewater results when reactor contents (containing phosphorus) are dumped into a sewer line due to operator error, emergency conditions, or inadvertent leaks and spills. 

The major wastewater from the alkylation process is the spent caustic from the neutralization of the hydrocarbon stream from the reactor. Even though the spent acids are recovered as salable by-product, leaks and spills of acid catalysts could reach the sewer lines. The major pollutants from the solvent refining processes include solvents such as phenols, glycols, and amines. Other processes for the manufacture of waxes and asphalt, and for finishing and blending of gasoline, produce relatively low volumes of dilute wastewater.
