367 Smart Solutions: How Solid Chemistry Can Transform Your Business
Manage episode 422341180 series 2479326
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’re 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:
-
- Reduced Shipping Costs
- Decreased Storage Space Requirements
- Lower Risk of Spills and Accidents
Let's break these down:
-
- Reduced Shipping Costs Solid chemistry products are more concentrated than their liquid counterparts. This means you can ship smaller quantities, which reduces the overall shipping cost. For example: - Liquid product: 100 gallons (heavy, requires special handling) - Solid product: Equivalent treatment power in a smaller, lighter package
-
- Decreased Storage Space Requirements Solid products take up less space than liquid ones, meaning you can store more product in the same amount of space. This can lead to lower storage costs, especially in facilities where space is at a premium.
-
- Lower Risk of Spills and Accidents Handling liquids, especially hazardous ones, carries a significant risk of spills and accidents, which can be costly. Solids minimize this risk, leading to fewer incidents and lower associated costs.
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:
-
-
- Savings in Shipping: $500 per shipment
- Savings in Storage: $100 per month
- Savings in Risk Management: $150 per month
-
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
In today’s segment, I have a “What If” 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?
