Odor Monitoring and Mitigation
Odor Monitoring and Mitigation can be challenging. Where is the odor coming from? How should you eliminate the odors? How do you know if the source is from your location? These questions can be a real challenge to solve. Envirosuite is an air, odor, dust, and noise monitoring software platform used to measure these types of parameters. They have a beautiful software interface with the ability to deploy different types of monitoring devises to capture real-time data. Byers Scientific utilizes proprietary odor mitigation technology with patented vapor-phase systems leveraging waterless vapor technology to control fugitive odors. Their vapor-phase systems manifest adsorption in the open air to eliminate odors on contact. Check out this episode and learn more about these two companies and their partnership to solve these Odor Monitoring and Mitigation challenges.

Byers is made a name for itself
in a bit of a different way and
2
00:00:07,700 --> 00:00:09,900
really going back to the drawing
board if you will.
3
00:00:09,900 --> 00:00:12,800
And and understanding the
problem set.
4
00:00:13,100 --> 00:00:16,400
Sure.
Landfills have odors sure
5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:19,900
composting facilities have odors
we've taken a minute to better.
6
00:00:19,900 --> 00:00:20,900
Understand.
What is that?
7
00:00:20,900 --> 00:00:23,200
Problem set?
What is a help us better?
8
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:27,200
Understand qualitatively and
quantitatively what are these
9
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,900
emissions?
And where are they coming from?
10
00:00:29,900 --> 00:00:31,800
And And where are they traveling
to?
11
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,500
So, a bit of a long-winded
answer is with, with the help of
12
00:00:35,500 --> 00:00:37,600
Enviro, sweetness partnership
that we have.
13
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,300
Now we can really understand,
not only where these emissions
14
00:00:41,300 --> 00:00:43,300
are going but what are the
emissions?
15
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:46,300
And to see the changes in
emissions?
16
00:00:46,500 --> 00:00:50,200
Based on barometric pressure or
based on meteor lot, other
17
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:54,100
meteorological data or of a
primary source is extremely
18
00:00:54,100 --> 00:00:56,200
unique.
So we have gained a wealth of
19
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,100
knowledge in the last 16 months
or so.
20
00:01:08,700 --> 00:01:11,900

Thank you for having us.
All right.
49
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,900
Hey looking, I'm looking forward
to this conversation, you know.
50
00:02:55,900 --> 00:02:59,800
I do a little bit of software
work myself and you know Enviro
51
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,900
sweet is Really interesting
piece of software and and for
52
00:03:03,900 --> 00:03:06,900
the listeners I think it might
be good for Audrey is if you
53
00:03:06,900 --> 00:03:09,800
can, give the give them a, give
us a little expect, you know
54
00:03:10,100 --> 00:03:13,700
explanation of what Enviro sweet
does, the what the platform is
55
00:03:13,700 --> 00:03:17,000
built on, you know, what kind of
problems are you solving with it
56
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,300
and let's dive into this a
little bit.
57
00:03:19,300 --> 00:03:21,600
It's pretty interesting.
You know some Sean thank you so
58
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,600
much and thank you everybody as
well for using today to the
59
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:26,800
podcast.
One of the key things for Enviro
60
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:31,700
sweet has always been how do we
translate that Because we live
61
00:03:31,700 --> 00:03:34,000
in this world where everybody
wants more data and everybody's
62
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,300
got all these sensors.
And we talked about it, the
63
00:03:37,100 --> 00:03:39,100
internet of things.
And in terms of environmental
64
00:03:39,100 --> 00:03:43,300
things came out and we had an
excess of data, but we believe
65
00:03:43,300 --> 00:03:45,000
that we have a lack of
information.
66
00:03:45,100 --> 00:03:47,600
And I think that one of the
premises where we actually
67
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,500
started with was, how do we
start to grab these data and
68
00:03:50,500 --> 00:03:53,800
translate it into true
activities and actions in virus?
69
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,700
We just started more than 30
years ago from a Consulting
70
00:03:56,700 --> 00:03:57,800
point of view.
We were doing a little
71
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:03,000
Consulting work and As some of
your listeners, may know as well
72
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,900
shown Consultants, come with
This.
73
00:04:04,900 --> 00:04:07,800
Brilliant plans, that end up
becoming just books that sit on
74
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,900
a shelf and nobody's implemented
because of the lack of tools to
75
00:04:11,900 --> 00:04:13,300
be able to bring it all into
play.
76
00:04:13,300 --> 00:04:16,600
So verse with sold the
consulting firm and then we
77
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,399
decided to go to the war with a
global technology business.
78
00:04:19,700 --> 00:04:22,400
And all we're doing is grabbing
that knowledge that we have from
79
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,900
not just monitoring data into
actions but also forecasting
80
00:04:26,900 --> 00:04:30,100
modeling hyper, local weather
forecast understanding the how
81
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,200
weather Impacts the operations
whether you are a landfill waste
82
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,600
water treatment plant of any
kind of operations.
83
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,500
That is impacted by weather.
If it's important for you to
84
00:04:38,500 --> 00:04:41,200
know what's actually going to
happen with your emissions and
85
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:44,600
what you can do about it, then
that's kind of the premise
86
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,100
within virus with comes and and
and ultimately with our vision,
87
00:04:48,100 --> 00:04:50,900
our mission or gold which is
always to be able to bring
88
00:04:51,100 --> 00:04:53,900
communities regulators and
Industry together so that
89
00:04:53,900 --> 00:04:57,100
Society can Thrive.
And I think for us is one of the
90
00:04:57,100 --> 00:04:59,900
most important things is
responsible operations are
91
00:04:59,900 --> 00:05:04,000
always looking.
For ways to implement plans, but
92
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,900
it's all about helping Society
growth and with that is the
93
00:05:07,900 --> 00:05:10,700
community and meeting Regulatory
Compliance as well.
94
00:05:10,700 --> 00:05:13,700
So at the end of the day, that's
what we do in the technology
95
00:05:13,700 --> 00:05:15,300
side.
Of course, is just count.
96
00:05:15,300 --> 00:05:19,300
How do you implement that in
such a way that looks so simple.
97
00:05:19,500 --> 00:05:21,300
Yes, it's so complex in the
background.
98
00:05:21,300 --> 00:05:24,600
You have very Advanced models,
very Advanced activity happening
99
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,700
and multiple parameters
impacting alert something.
100
00:05:27,700 --> 00:05:30,500
So mainly, that's what we do
Shawn.
101
00:05:30,700 --> 00:05:32,500
Come on.
Well let's dive in a little
102
00:05:32,500 --> 00:05:34,800
deeper because I mean, that's a
pretty good overview.
103
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:38,900
But let's talk about, you know,
what this application is really
104
00:05:38,900 --> 00:05:40,200
doing.
I mean, for the, for the
105
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:44,900
listeners, for instance, what
Target audiences are Target
106
00:05:44,900 --> 00:05:49,600
Industries, are you pursuing
that are real really great use
107
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,900
cases for this application.
If we're chilling.
108
00:05:51,900 --> 00:05:55,200
Look at, and we've had great
success.
109
00:05:55,300 --> 00:05:59,400
In probably three key areas, the
end of the day, I said earlier,
110
00:05:59,700 --> 00:06:02,600
anybody, that feels Is that the
weather can impact their
111
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:06,200
operations may be interested in
my client of ours, but you could
112
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,600
argue say well, that's almost.
Anybody depends how you look at
113
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,600
it.
So we have had very good success
114
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:15,700
on landfills and management of
land filled orders and
115
00:06:15,700 --> 00:06:19,500
engagements with the community.
We have quite a good success
116
00:06:19,500 --> 00:06:22,600
with water in the wastewater
treatment plants as well.
117
00:06:22,900 --> 00:06:25,700
And I've been on couple of
podcasts on the water side as
118
00:06:25,700 --> 00:06:28,300
well because there's a very,
some very interesting advances
119
00:06:28,300 --> 00:06:32,000
happening in that space and
Minding my name is probably the
120
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,400
third pillar of the we also work
significantly with but I think
121
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,600
for the purpose of kind of what
we're talking about today,
122
00:06:39,900 --> 00:06:42,900
focusing on the landfills and
the wastewater treatment plants
123
00:06:42,900 --> 00:06:46,100
has been one of the key areas
for us to be able to help moving
124
00:06:46,100 --> 00:06:48,800
this forward.
And and I think one of the key
125
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:54,600
aspects is I don't want to get
extremely technical if he's not
126
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:58,700
the right terminology, but we
have grabbed historical models
127
00:06:58,700 --> 00:07:03,400
like ComEd kalpas and wrf models
that actually give you very good
128
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:07,600
forecasting data and Hyper
localized that and some of our
129
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,800
clients like Wake County in
North Carolina.
130
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,100
It's a landfill that we operate
with and we talk there with John
131
00:07:14,100 --> 00:07:18,900
Robertson which is the landfill
operations manager in that area
132
00:07:18,900 --> 00:07:22,400
and he is one of the persons
that he's being a very big
133
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,900
advocate of the solution for the
last house a over 34 years and
134
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,100
what they are.
Actually finding very useful is
135
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,500
the ability to The communities
quickly when they have are
136
00:07:32,500 --> 00:07:36,200
concerned, and they have seen a
significant reduction of number
137
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:41,500
of orders reports, no, because
the community is not perceiving
138
00:07:41,500 --> 00:07:44,700
the orders necessarily, but it's
also because they've actually
139
00:07:44,700 --> 00:07:47,200
encouraged now the commutes a
please lead us.
140
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,500
Not let us know when others may
actually occur because that's
141
00:07:50,500 --> 00:07:53,000
how we get better.
And we are going to give you
142
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,100
very fast response of, we know
what's going on because we have
143
00:07:56,100 --> 00:07:59,100
this tool that helps us
understand where you really
144
00:07:59,100 --> 00:08:02,100
impacted by our facility.
I was at a neighboring facility.
145
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,600
A lot of the times landfill
operations, always work.
146
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:08,300
Treatment plants, have the
difficulty that they sit next to
147
00:08:08,300 --> 00:08:11,100
other sources.
And of course, they can't blame
148
00:08:11,100 --> 00:08:13,500
all the time because they are
the biggest because they are
149
00:08:13,500 --> 00:08:15,700
most visible.
But then you may actually be
150
00:08:15,700 --> 00:08:19,500
coming next to another Pump
Station or a transfer station,
151
00:08:19,500 --> 00:08:21,700
or maybe it's a manhole cover
that is actually having
152
00:08:21,700 --> 00:08:24,700
problems.
And without any tools that help
153
00:08:24,700 --> 00:08:27,600
you understand what's happening
with the weather you you're just
154
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:29,100
going to have to take the blame
of the time.
155
00:08:29,100 --> 00:08:32,700
So I think that that ability to
So understand, is it me?
156
00:08:33,100 --> 00:08:36,799
And if it is me, what do we do?
And that's where some of the
157
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,900
partnership's we had with buyers
and diffic it's been extremely
158
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,200
fruitful with our clients
because that's that kind of
159
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:44,400
okay.
I know, it's me.
160
00:08:44,700 --> 00:08:47,300
So, what do I do about it?
And that we can help and I'll
161
00:08:47,308 --> 00:08:51,800
let Josh talk about that later.
But it is not me is, hey, let's
162
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,800
also understand.
There's other sources in the
163
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,300
area that we need to be able to
manage.
164
00:08:55,300 --> 00:08:57,700
So that's when Regulators can
come in and say, okay, well,
165
00:08:57,700 --> 00:09:00,400
this is fantastic.
Now we know you have controls.
166
00:09:00,500 --> 00:09:03,800
Now, let's put in place in other
areas, but that's just to give
167
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,300
you a couple of examples of here
blind and we work with Kirsten,
168
00:09:07,700 --> 00:09:09,700
but happy to exist deeper as
needed.
169
00:09:09,700 --> 00:09:12,600
I just want to conscious of all,
so that's, that's really good.
170
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:17,900
I mean, so so you're looking.
So currently use iot devices as
171
00:09:17,900 --> 00:09:20,800
your monitoring stations.
You got it equipment.
172
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,800
That's like, is this your own
proprietary equipment that you,
173
00:09:24,100 --> 00:09:27,000
you license out just part of
your service.
174
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,800
How does that work?
And you could talk a little bit
175
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,800
about the device?
Isis, it sound like you're using
176
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:38,100
it for air air quality sampling.
You've got odor, monitoring a
177
00:09:38,100 --> 00:09:40,700
noise and vibration talk a
little bit about that.
178
00:09:40,700 --> 00:09:44,300
So the people listening can kind
of get a sense of the, the
179
00:09:44,300 --> 00:09:47,000
spectrum of the types of
monitoring you're doing your.
180
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,500
Here's here's an interesting
area shortly when we started, as
181
00:09:51,500 --> 00:09:53,300
I said we started a Consulting
Group.
182
00:09:53,500 --> 00:09:58,400
We identified that there is a
Increased number of sensors that
183
00:09:58,400 --> 00:09:59,900
were available on coming in the
market.
184
00:09:59,900 --> 00:10:03,900
I personally come from working
very heavily in the sensor,
185
00:10:03,900 --> 00:10:06,600
manufacturing space, that's
where I actually graduated and
186
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:10,700
did my thesis on and measuring
instrumentation on air quality.
187
00:10:11,100 --> 00:10:13,400
But what's happening right now
is we have indicative
188
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,100
measurements coming out on the
APA.
189
00:10:15,100 --> 00:10:19,600
Came out about a year and a half
ago with the EPA guidelines, or
190
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,600
utilizing an indicative
measurement sensors, and has
191
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,500
very good in understanding.
How does indicative measurements
192
00:10:25,700 --> 00:10:28,400
can compliment?
Those regulatory monitors
193
00:10:28,500 --> 00:10:32,400
because their regular monitors
are expensive to run and they're
194
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,400
going to be very costly, but
they're very precise, but if you
195
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,900
can use indicative measurement
data, to give you awareness of
196
00:10:37,900 --> 00:10:40,500
what's happening around your
operations, then you may be able
197
00:10:40,500 --> 00:10:44,500
to act ahead of time almost like
a fire detector, basically just
198
00:10:44,500 --> 00:10:46,400
kind of trip.
Alarm go like if that's what's
199
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,600
actually, let's see what's
happening and that's what.
200
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,100
Now Trends are becoming more
important to to answer your
201
00:10:52,100 --> 00:10:55,700
specific question we then went
back and said, okay, do we
202
00:10:55,700 --> 00:10:58,800
manufacture sensors What do we
do in terms of gathering this
203
00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:00,400
data?
And we learned that this
204
00:11:00,500 --> 00:11:03,600
tremendous amount of
inefficiencies created by data
205
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,800
silos.
Because Hardware manufacturers
206
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,100
have created their own
platforms.
207
00:11:07,100 --> 00:11:08,900
That is just this, this is the
sensor used.
208
00:11:08,900 --> 00:11:11,500
This is your platform and this
is at an all of the sudden
209
00:11:11,500 --> 00:11:15,300
persons were like, oh, if I want
to use that sensor and g-sensor
210
00:11:15,300 --> 00:11:19,500
just to mention a couple like
let's say there's a let's say
211
00:11:19,500 --> 00:11:21,500
you had made one
instrumentation, you want to use
212
00:11:21,500 --> 00:11:23,800
made one, but you also wanted to
use some instrumentation from
213
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,800
another manufacturer Teledyne
aquarium.
214
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:27,600
So the only ones and there you
go.
215
00:11:27,900 --> 00:11:30,300
Well, now I have to use their
platform for days and they'll
216
00:11:30,300 --> 00:11:33,000
platform for this.
And so we decided we were going
217
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,200
to be sensor agnostic.
So we're going to develop
218
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:36,900
technology that was sensor
agnostic.
219
00:11:36,900 --> 00:11:39,400
In terms of, we can plug any
sensors that you want.
220
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,200
Are you can if you already have
sensors, we can actually bring
221
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,900
that data into place.
We have ways to do it because we
222
00:11:44,900 --> 00:11:47,900
see value in becoming that
environmental data, have that
223
00:11:47,900 --> 00:11:50,400
all the data starts to come in,
including complaint data.
224
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,300
So, discreet data and continuous
monitoring data.
225
00:11:53,700 --> 00:11:57,900
But then the next challenge
comes which is that Okay, well
226
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,400
people wanted to come with us.
They really like the idea, but I
227
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,500
don't have any sensors.
So I'll come to you when I get a
228
00:12:02,500 --> 00:12:06,400
sensor and then they didn't
realize that we needed to be
229
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,400
part of the pack complete
package and solution.
230
00:12:08,600 --> 00:12:12,300
So we do offer sensors, we bring
sensors onto the table, but we
231
00:12:12,300 --> 00:12:14,700
bring sensors in the sense that
we can actually suggest
232
00:12:14,700 --> 00:12:18,200
indicative sensors, we can
suggest other kind of higher
233
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,400
ancestors.
But we stay at Gnostic to the
234
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,300
manufacturing.
All we're doing is integrating
235
00:12:22,300 --> 00:12:25,200
them as part of our solution and
we become more of a system
236
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:29,200
integrator that point in time.
So that's that's really
237
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,000
interesting.
I like that angle there bed
238
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:35,200
being agnostic, on the sensor.
So that way depending on the
239
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:39,700
type of, you know, media you
really want to Monitor and
240
00:12:39,700 --> 00:12:42,600
evaluate.
If there's you know something
241
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,800
that's more sensitive or more
robust as a you know, a
242
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:49,500
monitoring device, you could use
it there or something that they
243
00:12:49,500 --> 00:12:51,700
already have, they don't to
spend another, you know, ten
244
00:12:51,700 --> 00:12:53,100
fifteen thousand dollars on the
Monitor.
245
00:12:53,100 --> 00:12:56,000
And they've got one already that
works just fine, right?
246
00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,000
Yes thinking that is the
metrological data option.
247
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:04,000
So I always said invest in a
very good weather station and
248
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,400
cited properly.
Citing the number of times I've
249
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,500
seen weather stations sit next
to a wall in a building and
250
00:13:09,508 --> 00:13:11,000
garlic is my weather station the
world.
251
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,200
You're never getting a Northerly
winds because you got a wall
252
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:17,600
next to it, but it's one of
those things, you know, invest
253
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,400
in a very good weather station
and side are properly.
254
00:13:20,700 --> 00:13:24,100
Everything else can actually fit
into place and we will will
255
00:13:24,100 --> 00:13:26,000
support all that.
But yeah, whereas that sensor
256
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:34,100
agnostic.

267
00:14:09,700 --> 00:14:20,200
that's www.hs K Dash e nve.com
as part of the weather station.
268
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:24,500
I mean, do you guys monitor like
water levels or water?
269
00:14:24,500 --> 00:14:26,700
Or is it just is, you know, is
it?
270
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,800
Just you know, wind direction is
it raining that type of you know
271
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,700
what type of data are you
collecting on the weather?
272
00:14:33,100 --> 00:14:37,100
Yeah my dating temperature.
Yeah we always because we do a
273
00:14:37,100 --> 00:14:39,800
lot of modeling and we use the
cup of models by cyclic with
274
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,000
runs out of the cabinet model
engine as well.
275
00:14:42,500 --> 00:14:46,300
We typically look at at least
seven specific parameters which
276
00:14:46,300 --> 00:14:49,200
is temperature humidity solar
radiation is important for
277
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:53,200
cloud, cover and temperature,
inversions barometric pressure,
278
00:14:53,500 --> 00:14:57,900
humidity and range is the
six-pack We actually have in the
279
00:14:58,300 --> 00:15:01,400
we do collect range data, the
rain data depends on the
280
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:03,500
application can be important
barometric pressure.
281
00:15:03,500 --> 00:15:06,500
Very landfill doing seen those
changes of the barometric
282
00:15:06,500 --> 00:15:08,700
pressure, increasing decreasing
with the landfill pretty much
283
00:15:08,700 --> 00:15:12,000
breathing in and out.
It's actually quite interesting
284
00:15:12,300 --> 00:15:16,100
and we can forecast that then we
can create forecasted research
285
00:15:16,100 --> 00:15:18,200
reports.
But I can tell you hour by hour.
286
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,800
What is the risk going to be on
your impression the next 24
287
00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:23,600
hours for yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think for the listeners to
288
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,600
understand that relationship
between a good weather Station
289
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:29,800
and the monitoring devices, you
want to know where the odors
290
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:31,100
going?
You got to know where the winds
291
00:15:31,100 --> 00:15:33,700
blowing, right in.
So, that's key.
292
00:15:33,700 --> 00:15:35,000
Right?
Yeah.
293
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,300
Absolutely.
Should I tell I tell my clients
294
00:15:37,300 --> 00:15:40,600
sometimes and young people that
I talk to if you stand outside,
295
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,400
if you're sitting right now,
wherever you are, you walk
296
00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:45,800
outside and you need a car Park
area and you perceived any
297
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,700
order, good, bad, whatever.
It is, the only reason your
298
00:15:48,700 --> 00:15:50,900
presence because the wind
product to you, the wind is the
299
00:15:50,900 --> 00:15:53,800
channel.
However, struggle, okay, so you
300
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,700
need to know and that's the
other elements sometimes.
301
00:15:56,900 --> 00:15:59,900
Good, very good data for
equality, but if you don't have
302
00:15:59,900 --> 00:16:03,600
good weather data, that's your
only getting half of the picture
303
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,600
because you got no idea to know
where these came from.
304
00:16:05,700 --> 00:16:07,300
You're just gonna go.
Well, I already came from.
305
00:16:07,300 --> 00:16:08,700
I just know he was high.
Yeah.
306
00:16:08,700 --> 00:16:10,000
Okay.
Where are you going to do with
307
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:11,800
that?
And I think that's, that's
308
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:15,500
that's why I always talk about
whether data is being probably
309
00:16:15,500 --> 00:16:19,700
one of the ones, I emphasize the
most, and people underestimate
310
00:16:19,700 --> 00:16:22,200
what a good weather station
probably could cost and a good
311
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,800
sighting of a weather station,
sometimes they got.
312
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,400
Well, I get a 200 dollar weather
station in.
313
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,800
Am I?
Certain like, yeah, but that's
314
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,000
going to work you for a couple
of weeks and then we don't know
315
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:35,100
whether they're not as reliable.
Yeah, well, that's good.
316
00:16:35,100 --> 00:16:37,600
See you offer?
You offer those types of, you
317
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:41,100
know, iot devices as well as
part of the package.
318
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,800
So, you know, when you guys, you
guys are being called out to
319
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:50,800
kind of start monitoring such,
you know, you know an area like,
320
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:56,500
you know, what happens when The
data comes in you you've you
321
00:16:56,500 --> 00:16:59,200
know and analyzed it, you're
starting to understand.
322
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,700
Okay, we have we've identified
the source we have orders.
323
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:08,700
Now what do we do?
You know, I think this is where
324
00:17:08,700 --> 00:17:11,800
maybe, you know, Josh comes into
play to help you but what, you
325
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,800
know, talk about what your, you
know, what that looks like for
326
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:17,200
you guys when you have that
client engagement?
327
00:17:17,300 --> 00:17:22,200
Well, we we for almost over a
year now young to be having
328
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,900
working with George sand.
And the team advisors because
329
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:29,100
that was exactly the challenge
that we face, then it's like,
330
00:17:29,100 --> 00:17:31,500
there's like I was telling about
sensors, we fix that one.
331
00:17:31,700 --> 00:17:34,800
And then guys like look, I love
you're system, you're selling
332
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:35,200
me.
Come.
333
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,100
Odors but I know my orders are
coming from my active face if
334
00:17:38,100 --> 00:17:40,100
you're in a landfill.
Like like I don't need you to
335
00:17:40,100 --> 00:17:43,800
tell you that coming from.
I know where they are and I
336
00:17:43,808 --> 00:17:46,400
think resting because a lot of
times your goal I look of course
337
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:47,500
you know, you'll answer better
than me.
338
00:17:47,500 --> 00:17:49,400
What do I know?
I just came in on you for a
339
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:50,600
week.
I put a tent.
340
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:52,300
I know you laughs you better
than I do or your water
341
00:17:52,300 --> 00:17:55,000
treatment plant.
But what's interesting is, once
342
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,700
you start sensors, putting
sensor data, you may come up
343
00:17:57,700 --> 00:18:00,200
with some surprises.
So things like oh wow, I didn't
344
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,200
know that was actually happening
then is gone investigate and and
345
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,200
Josh and I have had
opportunities with clients.
346
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,400
We work together, where we going
the clients gone.
347
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,200
Like I can guarantee you I know
where it is and we put in there.
348
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,200
Of course we see the orders
coming from that area where you
349
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,000
go like hey do you realize that
when you were having twins no
350
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,600
opposite direction.
You're also have some high
351
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:22,000
concentration ratings and what
about what's in there is like oh
352
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,600
yeah we forgot were dead.
In a pond down there and we're
353
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,700
doing that these days, you're
like oh there you go.
354
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:29,600
If you had known, that was a
condition.
355
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,900
Maybe you could have plan about
it or maybe there's an external
356
00:18:31,900 --> 00:18:36,300
Source, you didn't know.
The EPA is doing a project with
357
00:18:36,300 --> 00:18:39,600
us in the past, dr.
Evan Thomas from the EPA did a
358
00:18:39,608 --> 00:18:43,600
project on Robert time where
they identified an unknown
359
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:45,900
source just by running a number
of trajectory.
360
00:18:45,900 --> 00:18:47,800
So you're saying, what does
happen with the data?
361
00:18:48,100 --> 00:18:51,400
We get this data in here we run
reverse trajectories that helps.
362
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,600
You understand that?
Every 5-minute interval.
363
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,800
Where is the wind coming from?
And what's happening?
364
00:18:57,100 --> 00:19:01,100
Because a clear example is
couple of years ago, one of our
365
00:19:01,100 --> 00:19:05,400
landfills here in California was
like, oh, we can be for things
366
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,200
giving massive amount of orders
happening and all of a sudden
367
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:12,300
communities into social media.
All the community pages are
368
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,900
going crazy about the, odors and
is going to be the lamp is gonna
369
00:19:14,900 --> 00:19:18,800
be the landfill and then they
run a trajectory of our system.
370
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:21,700
And we told him that 30 minutes
before they were perceived the
371
00:19:21,700 --> 00:19:25,400
orders, the wind has shifted
Right from the west and they
372
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,500
will, I look is not as we don't
do anything different.
373
00:19:27,500 --> 00:19:28,900
They go to the west and have a
look at this.
374
00:19:28,900 --> 00:19:32,700
A farm in the had just received
a tremendous amount of
375
00:19:32,900 --> 00:19:36,100
fertilizer manure and was being
delivered in that place, and
376
00:19:36,100 --> 00:19:37,600
that had come just from the
West.
377
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:40,800
However, if you had saved over
here and just look, where is the
378
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:43,700
wind coming from, at the time of
the complaints that wind was
379
00:19:43,700 --> 00:19:46,500
coming from the landfill, or
there another 15 minutes before
380
00:19:46,500 --> 00:19:49,200
the wind has shifted, and he
came across from that area.
381
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,200
So, it's not understand it, but
to come back to your think,
382
00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:53,800
okay?
When I know it's me, What do I
383
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,000
do?
And I think that's where for us
384
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,300
is after tremendous amount of
work, trying to understand what
385
00:19:59,300 --> 00:20:02,200
other landfills were doing, is
working with him a bios and
386
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,700
actually putting mitigations in
place that work at the Active
387
00:20:05,700 --> 00:20:08,500
phase so that were killing the
source is been the most
388
00:20:08,500 --> 00:20:11,400
effective and and I don't want
to kind of talk about the George
389
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,000
cycle.
So he understands it better that
390
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,300
me and I probably won't give it
a good service on it, but I
391
00:20:16,300 --> 00:20:19,400
think Shawn to to get to the
point where you're saying, once
392
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:23,100
you know, you are part of the
contributor towards the actual
393
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,200
Risotto with what's actually
happening.
394
00:20:25,500 --> 00:20:28,500
The next step is.
Okay, what will th do you have
395
00:20:28,500 --> 00:20:30,600
in place?
And there are a number of things
396
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,500
you can put, you can put some
covers, you can put you can
397
00:20:33,500 --> 00:20:35,700
cover completely tanks, you
deserve that kind of water,
398
00:20:35,700 --> 00:20:38,600
treatment plan but but there are
times where there are things
399
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,100
that are just much harder to
manage and I think with the team
400
00:20:41,100 --> 00:20:43,900
in buyers comes in place and
it's been, it's been tremendous
401
00:20:43,900 --> 00:20:47,100
we seen today that come in where
we like when the system is
402
00:20:47,100 --> 00:20:49,500
running and not running.
Now you see that reduction in
403
00:20:49,500 --> 00:20:51,400
the orders?
Like we have seen the data
404
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,200
happening.
So that's very important.
405
00:20:53,300 --> 00:20:55,900
Encouraging and very interesting
for us for sure.
406
00:20:55,900 --> 00:20:58,700
I mean so Josh here Don bring
you in on this.
407
00:20:58,700 --> 00:21:02,500
Let's talk a little bit about,
you know, they've got mitigation
408
00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:08,500
needs now, the client says, hey
okay, I'm the source andreas's
409
00:21:08,500 --> 00:21:12,100
like hey now I've got I'm going
to recommend somebody, like a
410
00:21:12,100 --> 00:21:16,900
buyer scientific to come in.
Talk about what buyers is doing
411
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:21,400
for clients with this scenario
and the technology you have to
412
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,500
really solve these problems.
Yeah, thanks a lot.
413
00:21:24,500 --> 00:21:27,400
Sean and Let Me Maybe set the
table first fire.
414
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,700
Scientific is a really unique
firm that really is focused on
415
00:21:30,700 --> 00:21:35,100
Custom Engineered solutions for
indoor, air quality for both
416
00:21:35,100 --> 00:21:38,900
commercial and Industrial
facilities as well as mitigating
417
00:21:38,900 --> 00:21:43,200
odor in ambient air sources.
Landfills are a primary example
418
00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,600
of that.
We do have several different
419
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,500
divisions of the first I'll
speak about is the mitigation
420
00:21:48,500 --> 00:21:52,000
technology division.
This allows us to really design
421
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,700
and deploy different types of
equipment, with the ability to
422
00:21:55,700 --> 00:21:59,100
mitigate odor.
That said I should, I should
423
00:21:59,100 --> 00:22:02,700
really take a minute to talk
about buyers is made a name for
424
00:22:02,700 --> 00:22:06,700
itself in a bit of a different
way and really going back to the
425
00:22:06,700 --> 00:22:09,700
drawing board if you will.
And and understanding the
426
00:22:09,700 --> 00:22:11,700
problem set.
Sure.
427
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:16,200
Landfills have odors sure
composting facilities have odors
428
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,300
we've taken a minute to better.
Understand.
429
00:22:18,300 --> 00:22:19,600
What is that?
Problem set?
430
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:23,200
What is a help us better?
Understand qualitatively and
431
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:25,900
quantitatively?
- Lee, what are these emissions?
432
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:29,600
And, where are they coming from?
And where are they traveling to?
433
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:33,400
So, a bit of a long-winded
answer is with, with the help of
434
00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,500
Enviro, sweetness partnership
that we have.
435
00:22:35,500 --> 00:22:39,200
Now we can really understand,
not only where these emissions
436
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:43,300
are going but what are the
emissions and to see the changes
437
00:22:43,300 --> 00:22:46,700
in emissions?
Based on barometric pressure or
438
00:22:46,700 --> 00:22:49,900
based on meteor lot other
meteorological data or the
439
00:22:49,900 --> 00:22:52,500
primary source is extremely
unique.
440
00:22:52,500 --> 00:22:56,200
So we have gained And a wealth
of knowledge in the last 16
441
00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,100
months or so.
Really understanding, for
442
00:22:58,100 --> 00:23:03,100
example, what happens on a
working face when it's covered
443
00:23:03,300 --> 00:23:07,500
at night time versus during the
day and or what are some
444
00:23:07,500 --> 00:23:10,900
emission sources from leachate
ponds, landfill gas collection
445
00:23:10,900 --> 00:23:14,600
system, so on and so forth.
So we've taken a unique approach
446
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,900
and saying, let's hit the pause
button.
447
00:23:17,100 --> 00:23:19,900
Let's really understand and
diagnose the problem by way,
448
00:23:19,900 --> 00:23:24,200
again of the type of compounds
and the concentration of So then
449
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:26,600
address the problem to answer
the question.
450
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:32,200
You've asked here landfills are
primary source and target for us
451
00:23:32,700 --> 00:23:35,900
because of the ongoing emissions
that come from the working face.
452
00:23:36,300 --> 00:23:39,200
We see for the most part,
whether it's a privately owned
453
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,900
and operated landfill or a
publicly owned privately
454
00:23:42,900 --> 00:23:46,000
operated or publicly owned
publicly operated.
455
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,900
We're for the most part.
Solid, Waste, folks are getting
456
00:23:49,900 --> 00:23:52,300
it, right?
I will say, and that means that
457
00:23:52,300 --> 00:23:54,500
they're doing the right.
Things in managing leachate
458
00:23:54,500 --> 00:23:57,600
correctly, they're doing the
right things in managing
459
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:01,900
landfill gas, emissions, coming
from these sources either
460
00:24:01,900 --> 00:24:04,700
collecting them and flaring
them, or collecting them, and
461
00:24:04,700 --> 00:24:07,300
making a fuel.
And so what we've seen over the
462
00:24:07,300 --> 00:24:10,800
last couple of years is the
primary emission source is
463
00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:14,200
really at that work face and now
we've got incredible data to
464
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:18,000
show when that team uncovers a
run peels, the cover in the
465
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:22,300
morning, you can begin to see
that work face really come to
466
00:24:22,300 --> 00:24:26,000
life by way of Wallace's and
data collection more
467
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,700
specifically we've seen where it
can be very difficult to use
468
00:24:29,700 --> 00:24:32,800
water water.
Historically has been a primary
469
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:36,900
vehicle to try to mitigate odor
misting systems have a
470
00:24:36,908 --> 00:24:39,500
historically been a really
common Approach at the fence
471
00:24:39,500 --> 00:24:43,400
line or even as the trash is
being dumped water.
472
00:24:43,900 --> 00:24:47,400
In some areas is expensive but
it takes a lot of Labor to move
473
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,900
the water around.
And so what Mark Byers designed
474
00:24:49,900 --> 00:24:53,200
and patented was a vapor phase
approach Where We Are.
475
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,500
Actively taking a liquid
neutralizer through a patented
476
00:24:56,500 --> 00:25:01,200
process and we're delivering it
in a vapor or dry State more.
477
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:04,700
Specifically for this work face
application anybody in the
478
00:25:04,700 --> 00:25:06,900
solid.
Waste industry knows that it's a
479
00:25:06,900 --> 00:25:12,300
moving Target, no pun intended,
as the cells, grow change and
480
00:25:12,300 --> 00:25:15,900
shift.
And and as the lifts change and
481
00:25:15,900 --> 00:25:20,700
shift, this is a moving living
organism, if you will.
482
00:25:20,700 --> 00:25:24,700
And so we designed what we refer
to, as our 223 M.
483
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:29,400
And that is a mobile system that
allows us to deploy as that
484
00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:33,500
working face area changes and
grows to then deploy.
485
00:25:33,500 --> 00:25:38,700
A dry Vapor product with proven
efficacy to mitigate that mass,
486
00:25:38,700 --> 00:25:42,100
but the truly mitigate those
odors one thing I'll say is
487
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:46,000
there is no Silver Bullet here.
Mitigating odor from a large
488
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,600
open-air space on a landfill is
probably hard to do, it's nearly
489
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:55,200
impossible to get 100% efficacy.
So, What we look at is is a game
490
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,800
of angles if you will
understanding hyper localized
491
00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,000
meteorological data,
understanding where those
492
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,800
emissions are going now and
where they're going to be
493
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:05,900
forecasted to go again with
Enviro sweets, ability to tell
494
00:26:05,900 --> 00:26:09,100
us that in forecasts that and
then place the unit accordingly.
495
00:26:09,100 --> 00:26:11,700
So that we're upwind and
downwind.
496
00:26:11,700 --> 00:26:14,000
So that we get multiple passes
through that, Vapor phase
497
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:20,900
system.

So, when you do that and you're
507
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:57,300
and you're putting out your
mitigation systems out there
508
00:26:57,300 --> 00:27:00,600
mean, is it just one is like a
mobile unit or these permanent
509
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:01,800
units?
Josh.
510
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,000
I mean, how does this work in
real time?
511
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:04,900
Are?
Yeah.
512
00:27:04,900 --> 00:27:08,400
So our newest Innovation.
Historically, we were we were
513
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:12,500
looking at doing permanent
systems along the fence line, if
514
00:27:12,500 --> 00:27:14,900
you will.
And what we realized was is that
515
00:27:14,900 --> 00:27:17,700
true odor.
Mitigation is predicated on
516
00:27:17,700 --> 00:27:22,400
contact, whether it's buyer.
Tiff occur ABC Odor Control.
517
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:28,300
We know now that these malodor
compounds must be mitigated and
518
00:27:28,300 --> 00:27:31,100
it's done generally by way to
different approaches.
519
00:27:31,100 --> 00:27:34,800
One is adsorption and that is
the reaction that we rely on.
520
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:38,400
The other is oxidation, those
are the two most common ways to
521
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,000
mitigate Notre.
And so to your point of what we
522
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,900
like to do is we deploy a 6-inch
lay flat hose.
523
00:27:44,100 --> 00:27:46,800
That's movable.
So it allows us to create a
524
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:50,600
almost a V formation around that
work face so that we have one.
525
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,200
Leg up.
Wind, if you will, another one
526
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,500
down went.
So as that air is traveling over
527
00:27:56,500 --> 00:27:59,500
that work face, and allows that
Vapor to be passed over the work
528
00:27:59,500 --> 00:28:04,100
face again, that mixing area is
really critical to get that
529
00:28:04,100 --> 00:28:06,900
contact.
And then again we get us another
530
00:28:06,900 --> 00:28:11,200
pass through the vapor as that
air is passing by the work face
531
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:15,100
and then potentially downwind
onto a potential community.
532
00:28:15,900 --> 00:28:19,000
So what about Josh doing it
more?
533
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:22,700
Targeted at you know that.
Actual Source release point you
534
00:28:22,700 --> 00:28:26,600
know where maybe it's a stack,
you know, maybe it's animation
535
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,000
step.
I mean like to me you don't need
536
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,700
to go very far.
You've got you've got the exact
537
00:28:31,700 --> 00:28:34,500
emission point out, fall or
whatever right there.
538
00:28:34,900 --> 00:28:37,200
Yeah.
Have you had success deploying
539
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,700
your odor mitigation systems at
those types of scenarios.
540
00:28:40,700 --> 00:28:42,800
Instead of a you know a large
landfill.
541
00:28:42,900 --> 00:28:45,000
That's a large area.
Yeah.
542
00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:50,600
Sean thanks for asking those
challenges are much easier lift.
543
00:28:50,700 --> 00:28:54,600
Saying we can understand several
things about it, not only going
544
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,700
back to the analysis piece,
which, by the way we do have an
545
00:28:57,700 --> 00:29:00,600
entire division, dedicated to
that known as buyers emissions
546
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:06,700
analysis, we have two active.
Phds on staff, they are teaching
547
00:29:06,700 --> 00:29:10,200
professors and they have really
given us a significant advantage
548
00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:14,000
and not only understanding
analysis required to diagnose,
549
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:19,100
air quality issues Again by way
of compound and concentration.
550
00:29:19,100 --> 00:29:23,300
But furthermore, it also Also
allows us to really understand
551
00:29:23,300 --> 00:29:27,000
those potential sources are flow
for example, showing you missed
552
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:30,100
an emission stack.
So at that point we can
553
00:29:30,100 --> 00:29:32,400
understand temperature
considerations, we can
554
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:37,500
understand volume of air CFM.
We can understand the speed of
555
00:29:37,500 --> 00:29:40,500
the air by way of face velocity
and then we can understand.
556
00:29:40,500 --> 00:29:42,000
Okay.
What are these compounds of what
557
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,700
are we looking to mitigate?
And what sort of dosing is going
558
00:29:44,700 --> 00:29:48,200
to be required?
In some applications Shawn, we
559
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:53,200
refer to and use what's known as
Atomization or a fracturing of a
560
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,000
water droplet into a very, very
tiny droplet.
561
00:29:56,100 --> 00:30:00,200
Generally 3 to 18 microns in
size and this allows us to use
562
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:05,300
water as a vehicle in a forced
air application where Vapor may
563
00:30:05,300 --> 00:30:12,300
not be nearly as as significant
of an impact further to your
564
00:30:12,300 --> 00:30:16,300
point, for indoor applications.
Transfer stations are a great
565
00:30:16,300 --> 00:30:20,100
example, where Dustin odor have
been a problem for years and
566
00:30:20,100 --> 00:30:23,500
years and Transfer stations and
certainly there are some
567
00:30:23,500 --> 00:30:26,400
approaches now we're missing
will help kind of drop that dust
568
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,800
to the bottom.
But we've looked at with our
569
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:32,200
molecular filtration technology,
a whole other subsets of our
570
00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:36,300
business allows us to really
address indoor air quality, both
571
00:30:36,300 --> 00:30:40,600
commercial and Industrial grade
to really attack significant
572
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:45,600
dust and odor issues that are
are endorse or inside of a
573
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:49,500
facility.
You know, that that may be solid
574
00:30:49,500 --> 00:30:52,100
waste.
And or other different
575
00:30:52,100 --> 00:30:54,700
applications that have various
types of odor.
576
00:30:55,300 --> 00:30:57,300
So here's one that comes to
mind.
577
00:30:57,300 --> 00:30:59,700
Just kind of thinking out loud
here guys.
578
00:30:59,700 --> 00:31:04,300
I mean a hog farm a confined
feeding operation of you guys
579
00:31:04,300 --> 00:31:07,500
deployed your Solution on,
something like that because
580
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,300
those types of facilities Drive,
neighbors, crazy.
581
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:16,300
Quite a Hot Topic, Sean and all
that all that Andre speak on
582
00:31:16,300 --> 00:31:18,100
that first and then I'm happy to
comment.
583
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,200
Thank you, Josh.
I was, I think I must have
584
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,000
bubbles, coming out with signs
out of my head.
585
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,800
When you were saying that shown
because we were, we'd actually
586
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:32,400
one of the biggest I grow
manufacturing companies down in
587
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:36,400
South America, and Chile ever
super, and so profound, and they
588
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,700
have turkeys, and they have
Hawks by, she could, that's,
589
00:31:38,700 --> 00:31:41,800
that's what it was, some of the
major things they do and what's
590
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,700
interesting Arresting on that.
Is that the controls part is
591
00:31:44,700 --> 00:31:47,800
extremely challenging?
I mean they have it's an
592
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:51,300
interesting part because I think
buyers and diffic not only is
593
00:31:51,300 --> 00:31:53,500
the mitigation system.
Josh has been talking about, but
594
00:31:53,500 --> 00:31:57,000
it's also even filtration
systems like they've used in
595
00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,400
other Industries.
But these guys do is they grab
596
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:04,600
these massive areas where all
the hooks aren't, they enclose
597
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,600
them and they become very large
enclosed areas, but they put air
598
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,500
filtration systems to write one
of the things that you always
599
00:32:10,500 --> 00:32:12,000
going to see orders coming out
of those.
600
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,100
What's interesting for me at
that, I've learned over the
601
00:32:14,100 --> 00:32:17,200
years working with them, is that
the order will change, depends
602
00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,500
on the age of the animals as
well.
603
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,500
So you're going to start putting
controls in place that are going
604
00:32:22,500 --> 00:32:26,300
to be based on your operation
and week what we do and working
605
00:32:26,300 --> 00:32:29,200
with their operation, their team
down there is we give them
606
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:34,700
Moreland of saying oh, if the
are not the same we have 200 300
607
00:32:34,700 --> 00:32:37,900
Hawks in this area and they are
of h x.
608
00:32:37,900 --> 00:32:40,900
Then what is the emissions and
the emission rate changes how we
609
00:32:40,900 --> 00:32:43,800
can produce models I tell you,
where is the mission going on?
610
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,100
What communities are going to be
impacting based on the age of
611
00:32:46,100 --> 00:32:48,700
the animals?
But it's certainly a very big
612
00:32:48,700 --> 00:32:50,700
challenge.
I think that at least what I've
613
00:32:50,700 --> 00:32:52,500
seen.
So far has been a lot more in
614
00:32:52,500 --> 00:32:55,200
closing the areas and putting
filtration systems in place.
615
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,400
And what we can actually do is
based on weather data, help
616
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,300
them, understand air flow
through those systems, how to
617
00:33:01,300 --> 00:33:03,300
increase the decrease, the
temperature, on a bunch of
618
00:33:03,300 --> 00:33:06,400
different controls around us.
But that's on our side.
619
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,600
We certainly invite is a big
challenge.
620
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,900
I mean, all the controls I've
seen in place.
621
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,700
You're still get this.
Still get those orders coming
622
00:33:13,700 --> 00:33:15,500
through and it's a big challenge
for sure.
623
00:33:16,900 --> 00:33:20,600
Josh helping out there.
Yeah, well, yes, or no.
624
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:23,600
Quite the Hot Topic.
And what we see right now is
625
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:30,200
that generally speaking.
Each state is covered under
626
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:34,600
agricultural farming protection.
In other words, these odors that
627
00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:37,200
are coming from these facilities
at least right now and most
628
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,400
capable operations, they're not
required to mitigate them.
629
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:44,200
And so, although the communities
are beginning to push back a
630
00:33:44,208 --> 00:33:47,600
little bit, in fact, it was
talked about Legislation the
631
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:51,200
state of North Carolina just
last week about cafo operations
632
00:33:51,500 --> 00:33:54,200
and potentially looking to
protect these communities from
633
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,300
these, odors.
But right now as we understand
634
00:33:56,300 --> 00:33:58,700
it, most of these big operators
are not willing to spend the
635
00:33:58,700 --> 00:34:03,100
money because it's not required.
And so whether it's becomes an
636
00:34:03,100 --> 00:34:06,700
environmental justice type
situation and or a legislative
637
00:34:06,700 --> 00:34:09,300
consideration.
Right now, we are not active on
638
00:34:09,300 --> 00:34:12,800
any of those facilities but we
do expect that to change over
639
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,000
time here, you got imagine like
the big corporate Farmers.
640
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:21,199
The Corporate, you know,
producers of, you know, turkeys
641
00:34:21,199 --> 00:34:22,800
chickens.
You can, you can go down the
642
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,100
list that, you know, the big
corporate names out there, you
643
00:34:25,100 --> 00:34:27,300
know.
And you know, those guys are
644
00:34:27,300 --> 00:34:32,300
probably thinking they should
probably put in mitigation or,
645
00:34:32,300 --> 00:34:36,699
you know, some monitoring
systems so they can keep the,
646
00:34:36,699 --> 00:34:39,100
the locals happy.
Hmm.
647
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:44,000
What one would think, you know.
It's big business and I think as
648
00:34:44,300 --> 00:34:46,500
environmental justice
initiatives continue to Push
649
00:34:46,500 --> 00:34:49,800
forward and communities rally
around each other.
650
00:34:50,900 --> 00:34:52,800
I think you'll see more action
in the future.
651
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,400
Yeah well you're seeing Sean I
think my experience is being
652
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:59,100
that you're seeing the tell way
the tail Winds of the things
653
00:34:59,100 --> 00:35:03,500
like ESG and all the corporate
driving elements of the sand.
654
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:07,000
I think corporations it is very
interesting because they always
655
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,800
seemed environmental themes as a
cost center all the savings
656
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:13,200
actually driving investment.
So that's certainly starting to
657
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:14,900
create out.
Wait a minute.
658
00:35:15,700 --> 00:35:18,200
If I them Straight years G.
Then I'm going to be able to
659
00:35:18,200 --> 00:35:21,400
drive better investment more
money into the business than I
660
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:25,600
was talking with a guy that
works now for IBM, and they are
661
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:29,100
doing very big business in
banking, on risk assessments.
662
00:35:29,300 --> 00:35:30,900
So what's the risk of your
business?
663
00:35:30,900 --> 00:35:33,500
If you're really not engaging
with the community proactively,
664
00:35:33,500 --> 00:35:34,800
if you're not doing these
things.
665
00:35:35,100 --> 00:35:38,800
So I agree with Josh, I think
you're going to see a lot more
666
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,400
interesting and I were talking
about earlier about public
667
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:45,400
sector private sector, we seemed
a lot more proactiveness
668
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,700
happening at times.
It's from that public sector,
669
00:35:47,700 --> 00:35:50,400
that truly kind of wants to
engage with that Community.
670
00:35:50,500 --> 00:35:53,700
But the private sector has been
kind of like, well, I'm going
671
00:35:53,700 --> 00:35:57,800
to, it's a lot more about a p&l
as well as that operation.
672
00:35:57,800 --> 00:35:59,400
But, the piano is driving
everything.
673
00:35:59,700 --> 00:36:03,000
So, now that ESG is coming and
playing a role, and it's exist
674
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:06,100
in many shapes and forms in the
past, but I feel that we're
675
00:36:06,100 --> 00:36:10,200
seeing a very significant push
towards environmental social
676
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:13,800
governance and, and that, that's
gonna that's going to continue.
677
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:15,200
I think that's going to continue
to drive.
678
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:18,600
And we Turning our iesg
reporting platform, but what I
679
00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,900
think is, we can fit a lot of
the real data that impacts us
680
00:36:21,900 --> 00:36:24,800
sustainability reports that can
actually help some driving some
681
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:26,500
of it.
So I agree.
682
00:36:26,500 --> 00:36:28,800
We're going to see probably big
changes happening as we keep
683
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,300
going this path, but but I think
it's just taking that extra
684
00:36:32,300 --> 00:36:36,300
shift on mentality is not just a
cause now it's actually driving
685
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:43,900
investment into the businesses.
Did you know, e tank is the only
686
00:36:43,900 --> 00:36:46,200
environmental Rental Equipment
company in the industry.
687
00:36:46,300 --> 00:36:49,700
Tree that offers a 100%
certified clean guarantee and no
688
00:36:49,700 --> 00:36:52,100
additional cost.
Well, this gives customers the
689
00:36:52,107 --> 00:36:54,600
Peace of Mind knowing that
container contents from the
690
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,400
previous renter, isn't going to
cross contaminate the contents
691
00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,200
of the current customer and
potentially cause liability
692
00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:01,700
concerns.
You know.
693
00:37:01,700 --> 00:37:04,800
E-tank also provides a
one-of-a-kind complete
694
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:08,100
maintenance program for all its
rental items including liquid,
695
00:37:08,100 --> 00:37:11,900
tight roll off containers, fluid
transfer pumps and filtration
696
00:37:11,900 --> 00:37:15,600
system components to learn more
about the types of containers of
697
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,100
pumps.
Eat tank supplies.
698
00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,600
Check out their website at
www.esa.int.
699
00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:23,900
So the next time you are faced
with an environmentally
700
00:37:23,900 --> 00:37:28,000
challenging project, give e-tank
a call to help solve your
701
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:30,000
problem.
It's just that easy.
702
00:37:33,500 --> 00:37:37,900
Wastewater treatment plants,
another point source location.
703
00:37:37,900 --> 00:37:41,400
That's I would think a lot
easier to control than the the
704
00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:45,300
face of a landfill.
What's your guys take on that or
705
00:37:45,300 --> 00:37:48,000
you are you doing any work in
the Wastewater area?
706
00:37:49,500 --> 00:37:52,600
Yeah, we certainly are and I
agree with you was one of the
707
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:55,000
interesting parts that we come
into place.
708
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,400
And we're always, it's, we're
always a trade-off of capital
709
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:01,700
investment or on pretty much
civil engineering
710
00:38:01,700 --> 00:38:04,700
infrastructure.
Change, or do we just control it
711
00:38:04,700 --> 00:38:06,500
and manage.
It kind of thing because one
712
00:38:06,500 --> 00:38:09,000
thing is, like, the say you have
a bunch of aeration tanks, do
713
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,900
you completely cover your
reaction tanks, and then all of
714
00:38:11,908 --> 00:38:15,000
a sudden, you don't have an
odor, or do we just manage it?
715
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,100
Because we are far away from the
community, but when I
716
00:38:17,100 --> 00:38:20,500
proactively still be on top of
what's Opening and to not enough
717
00:38:20,500 --> 00:38:23,000
controls as needed, but don't
invest the millions of dollars.
718
00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,500
That probably will take an
engineering job to do that.
719
00:38:25,900 --> 00:38:30,500
And and and then or is that
someone in between like we were
720
00:38:30,500 --> 00:38:32,600
wait.
We're working on some very large
721
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:35,400
projects right now with water
treatment plants were what
722
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:37,800
they're doing is they're
implementing other mitigations.
723
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:41,100
But it's, that is the
situational awareness that now
724
00:38:41,100 --> 00:38:44,700
becomes important to them.
Is that element of how do I know
725
00:38:44,700 --> 00:38:46,900
that things are actually working
as expected?
726
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,100
How do I know things that are
probably studying?
727
00:38:49,300 --> 00:38:52,500
To work as well.
And the and I think that that's
728
00:38:52,500 --> 00:38:55,100
where we start to play a role
which is which is fantastic.
729
00:38:55,100 --> 00:38:58,000
Because one of the things is
nothing better for me that we
730
00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:00,000
are able to demonstrate to a
client that what they've
731
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:04,800
invested in is actually helping.
So was like okay you invested
732
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,600
all of these now it's helping
but create a baseline so that
733
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:11,800
when it starts to change because
things weren't are and change is
734
00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:15,300
happening, and a lot of these
Solutions are very best box
735
00:39:15,300 --> 00:39:19,400
Solutions like every inch.
Every plant is somehow the Same.
736
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,600
But somehow very unique in the
way they actually operate on
737
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:25,300
rank.
So it's I think that that's
738
00:39:25,300 --> 00:39:27,200
where we probably have have
added more value.
739
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,800
And, and also on the last
project that I had on the Water
740
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:34,700
Treatment Plant, just recently,
but those guys were saying is we
741
00:39:34,700 --> 00:39:37,900
have X number of million dollars
to invest in a project that we
742
00:39:37,900 --> 00:39:40,500
have to choose.
So is that prioritization, where
743
00:39:40,500 --> 00:39:42,800
do I go?
And with modeling data, you're
744
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,500
able to say, well, 80% because
of your metrological conditions,
745
00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,300
80% of the orders are impacting
the They're coming from these
746
00:39:50,300 --> 00:39:53,700
tank over here, for example,
from these clarifiers section.
747
00:39:53,900 --> 00:39:56,700
So yes, your reaction time may
be the biggest but because of
748
00:39:56,700 --> 00:39:59,200
where you are with your
metrological data that may not
749
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:00,600
be, the one is impacting the
community.
750
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:02,600
The most, you're better off
covering the other source.
751
00:40:02,900 --> 00:40:05,900
So understanding that becomes
very important and critical as
752
00:40:05,900 --> 00:40:07,600
well.
So when you guys go out to do a
753
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:11,200
deployment I mean yeah well
what's the assessment?
754
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:14,300
Like I mean how many you know
sensors do you really need to
755
00:40:14,300 --> 00:40:18,200
get a good feel for?
You know the wind direction, the
756
00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:21,700
odors the air quality.
I mean we talking I mean I'm
757
00:40:21,700 --> 00:40:24,200
assuming it's more than one you
know.
758
00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:28,300
So what how many does it take
really to do a good job?
759
00:40:28,500 --> 00:40:31,300
Yeah that's a that I get that
question all the time Sharon and
760
00:40:31,300 --> 00:40:35,100
I wish I had a, bulletproof
answer of Z, this is what it is.
761
00:40:35,100 --> 00:40:37,500
But I'm going to make my best
effort toward for the audience
762
00:40:37,500 --> 00:40:39,300
to answer that.
The first thing is to understand
763
00:40:39,300 --> 00:40:41,100
you metaphorical conditions,
why?
764
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,100
Because if you have very calm
conditions, you're going to need
765
00:40:44,100 --> 00:40:45,700
more sensors.
Because air is just going to
766
00:40:45,700 --> 00:40:48,900
dissipate And go everywhere and
you're just having points in a
767
00:40:48,900 --> 00:40:51,400
map.
Basically, if you have a strong
768
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,400
wind conditions happening, you
know, that this predominant
769
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:56,900
winds are always never changing.
You can actually reduce the
770
00:40:56,900 --> 00:41:00,300
number of sensors, but more than
the actual having a discrete
771
00:41:00,300 --> 00:41:02,700
numbers at all, every X number
of miles, you should have a
772
00:41:02,707 --> 00:41:04,600
sensor.
I think it's more about
773
00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:07,300
understanding your app, wind and
wind conditions and your wind
774
00:41:07,300 --> 00:41:10,100
patterns throughout the year.
I use this analogy, sometimes
775
00:41:10,100 --> 00:41:12,700
people say, oh my permanent
waves are coming from the north
776
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:16,300
and it's like yes, but on that
spring time when the kind of
777
00:41:16,500 --> 00:41:19,300
Winter does when you have wings
coming at different direction
778
00:41:19,300 --> 00:41:21,800
and you probably didn't know
that because it's one season of
779
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:23,700
the year but doesn't want you to
get the most complaints because
780
00:41:23,700 --> 00:41:25,000
it's going towards the
community.
781
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:27,300
So it's kind of understanding
those patterns first.
782
00:41:27,300 --> 00:41:30,300
So your to your point, one of
the first things we do is we
783
00:41:30,300 --> 00:41:33,200
will try to understand.
Do we have access to it before
784
00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:36,100
you become a client even on in
virus with do you have any
785
00:41:36,100 --> 00:41:38,900
weather data and if you don't
can we get hold of any publicly
786
00:41:38,900 --> 00:41:42,700
available weather data like are
poor so we Weather Underground
787
00:41:42,700 --> 00:41:43,800
and a bunch of different
applications.
788
00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:46,300
We can go and get it and we do a
preliminary analysis.
789
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:48,800
Us of what the metrological
conditions, to understand how
790
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:52,400
many sensors you're going to
deployed as a bare minimum.
791
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:55,300
I like to start with an app
going downwind, type scenario.
792
00:41:55,300 --> 00:41:58,900
Orca discover all is Northwest
and and, and so on.
793
00:41:58,900 --> 00:42:03,200
So for sensors and a good
metrological session, but more
794
00:42:03,200 --> 00:42:06,400
and more clients, when once they
see that they go, oh, I want to
795
00:42:06,408 --> 00:42:08,600
put one in the community.
So they want are the sensitive
796
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:10,800
receptor are okay, fine.
I will just now go.
797
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:14,300
They, they start building these
greens of Defense.
798
00:42:14,300 --> 00:42:17,000
I like to call them.
So you got from Right.
799
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:20,200
As much as you can just start to
build outer rings and the outer
800
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:23,000
Rings allows you to then
understand really what's going
801
00:42:23,000 --> 00:42:25,300
on in orders.
And then you complement that
802
00:42:25,300 --> 00:42:27,100
with modeling and that, there
you go.
803
00:42:27,100 --> 00:42:29,900
You get a, you get a much better
picture of the complete
804
00:42:29,900 --> 00:42:31,600
solution.
And how long do you need to run
805
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:35,600
these systems to really get a
good feel for day-to-day
806
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,500
operations, like this is what
you're going to typically find
807
00:42:38,500 --> 00:42:42,500
and this is where we should, you
know, put our mitigation system
808
00:42:42,500 --> 00:42:44,800
for, you know, long term
deployment.
809
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:47,600
Yeah, we are.
Normally up and running.
810
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,600
I mean relatively quickly right
now means supply chain has
811
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:53,000
always been a bit of a challenge
since kind of governor was
812
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:54,500
recovering.
But once we get our sensors
813
00:42:54,800 --> 00:42:57,300
second, our platform.
It's a matter of two.
814
00:42:57,300 --> 00:43:00,000
Three weeks basically are up and
running and you're able to start
815
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:03,300
accessing some of these data.
However, what we actually then
816
00:43:03,300 --> 00:43:07,400
do is we then work with the team
and Josh's, you won't be very
817
00:43:07,400 --> 00:43:09,400
helpful with some of the clients
we already have as well.
818
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:13,200
The have got the joint combined
solution to say, let's have a
819
00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:15,000
quarterly.
Meeting will be doing analysis
820
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:16,900
and start putting hypothesis.
Place.
821
00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:20,100
So also you get value from day
one because you already got data
822
00:43:20,100 --> 00:43:23,000
sensors you already get a larger
regular soap leading to three
823
00:43:23,000 --> 00:43:24,300
weeks.
You take want to start getting
824
00:43:24,300 --> 00:43:28,000
that but the inside true
knowledge over time that you
825
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:31,500
start to build.
I actually will say that it
826
00:43:31,500 --> 00:43:34,500
takes the full year and once we
do the annual report and you
827
00:43:34,500 --> 00:43:36,400
start to go, oh wow, I didn't
realize these.
828
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:40,500
I didn't see this was happening
so I need some time you need
829
00:43:40,500 --> 00:43:43,800
some time to build the trend.
So you can at least understand
830
00:43:44,100 --> 00:43:46,300
you know, the weather patterns
and things.
831
00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:49,300
Like that, you know?
So Josh when you, when you come
832
00:43:49,300 --> 00:43:53,400
into play here with these types
of supporting projects, I mean,
833
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:57,400
you know, how long does the the
buyers, you know, systems run?
834
00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:00,800
I mean, is it 24/7?
Is it time to during you know,
835
00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:03,700
certain times of the day when
people are, you know, going to
836
00:44:03,700 --> 00:44:08,200
be more apt to smell the the
odors like, you know, nine to
837
00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:11,400
five and then you know kind of
tailed off toward the evening or
838
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:12,800
what do you do?
Yeah.
839
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:14,500
So we see a little bit of
everything.
840
00:44:14,500 --> 00:44:17,700
We have some clients that run
the Unit Around the Clock
841
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:21,100
especially with composting
facilities whether or not they
842
00:44:21,100 --> 00:44:24,000
may be open to ambient air all
the time.
843
00:44:24,900 --> 00:44:27,900
A common approach that we see in
solid waste is to really
844
00:44:27,900 --> 00:44:30,700
leverage.
The intelligent systems division
845
00:44:30,700 --> 00:44:36,000
of buyer scientific and and that
is our our scada platform.
846
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:40,100
And so that empowers us to not
only monitor the equipment in
847
00:44:40,100 --> 00:44:43,800
real-time, but also to provide
real-time controls part of that
848
00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:48,600
offering also involves or allow
Now's empowers the client to, to
849
00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:52,100
use production scheduling.
So, Sean almost, I would say
850
00:44:52,100 --> 00:44:55,300
probably 80 to 85 percent of our
clients say we want the unit to
851
00:44:55,308 --> 00:44:58,400
come on at 4:00 in the morning.
We wanted to shut off at 6 p.m.
852
00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:02,700
at night and we program it as
such and the unit effectively
853
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:06,700
turns itself on and off.
We can regulate actually
854
00:45:06,700 --> 00:45:11,700
delivery rates and because the
unit is actually able to store
855
00:45:11,700 --> 00:45:15,700
over 60 gallons of neutralizer
at any given time these units
856
00:45:15,700 --> 00:45:20,800
run for Over two weeks without
any interaction from the solid
857
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:23,200
waste operator.
And that's exactly what we plan
858
00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:25,900
for.
We want to liberate Manpower.
859
00:45:25,900 --> 00:45:27,200
We don't, we don't want to
demand it.
860
00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:31,000
We know that these facilities
have enough to do than babysit,
861
00:45:31,000 --> 00:45:32,900
another piece of equipment.
So, a bit of a long-winded
862
00:45:32,900 --> 00:45:36,400
answer, but, but that production
scheduling capability with our
863
00:45:36,700 --> 00:45:41,000
coyote and scada capabilities.
Our platform, excuse me is
864
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:44,000
extremely beneficial and allows
the client to kind of set the
865
00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:45,700
unit.
Let it do what it needs to do.
866
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:51,000
Well, so Does your system also
Josh work off of you know wind
867
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,800
wind information?
Do you set up a devices as well
868
00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:58,500
to trigger the your system?
I mean you've got Andres is you
869
00:45:58,500 --> 00:46:00,700
know system is kind of showing
you the trends and stop.
870
00:46:00,700 --> 00:46:04,700
But do you have your own system
where hey the winds are high
871
00:46:04,700 --> 00:46:07,000
right now?
It's going off because you know,
872
00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:09,400
it's telling it to go off.
I mean, you know, I don't know.
873
00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:11,200
Yeah, I know Shawn.
I understand.
874
00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:14,500
So we really we rely on that
meteorological data that we get
875
00:46:14,500 --> 00:46:19,000
from the Enviro sweet system.
Most Up you deploy a system and
876
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:20,700
the environmental monitoring is
not a package.
877
00:46:20,700 --> 00:46:23,200
We can offer, meteorological
data collection.
878
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:26,100
You are showing the challenge of
trying to manipulate the
879
00:46:26,100 --> 00:46:29,900
operation of the unit with wind
is, it's constantly changing.
880
00:46:29,900 --> 00:46:32,200
And so you get into a situation
where the units coming on and
881
00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:35,800
turning off and and so what
we've said is, you know, it's
882
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:37,800
really difficult to put the
genie back in the bottle.
883
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:41,300
And so, I'm going to most all
applications will run that
884
00:46:41,300 --> 00:46:45,100
machine throughout the time that
that Omission is present.
885
00:46:45,100 --> 00:46:48,000
So if that work faces This is
covered in the evening, then,
886
00:46:48,100 --> 00:46:50,600
you know, the client can dial
The Machine down, but if that
887
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:53,700
mission source is ongoing, we'll
just allow it to run.
888
00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:56,700
You know, that odor is going to
be carried, wherever the wind
889
00:46:56,700 --> 00:47:01,800
takes it and because we're a
vapor, and we're a very, very,
890
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:04,600
very tiny droplet that stays are
born all the time.
891
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:08,900
It allows us to move with those
odor patterns and increase that
892
00:47:08,900 --> 00:47:12,200
probability of contact.
And so stolen Airborne is a
893
00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:15,700
critical benefit to our Vapor
phase technology.
894
00:47:16,500 --> 00:47:19,600
That's good.
So, so if you're somebody who's
895
00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:22,800
got an odor problem or an air
quality problem, or you know,
896
00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:24,700
you're, you know, you're wanting
to know what's happening.
897
00:47:24,700 --> 00:47:28,200
I mean, or noise vibration issue
in virus.
898
00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:31,500
Sweet sounds like the great, a
great monitoring, you know,
899
00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:34,500
platform to help you understand
what your problems are where
900
00:47:34,500 --> 00:47:37,300
they're coming from.
Sounds like we got fire,
901
00:47:37,300 --> 00:47:41,200
scientific is like a fantastic
mitigation odor mitigation
902
00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:45,000
system that can really address.
These these problematic odors
903
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:47,500
for communities and And these
sources.
904
00:47:47,900 --> 00:47:50,700
And guys, I really thank you
guys for coming on the show
905
00:47:50,700 --> 00:47:53,300
today.
This has been a great discussion
906
00:47:53,500 --> 00:47:56,100
for the listeners.
How do they get a hold of you?
907
00:47:56,100 --> 00:47:59,500
If they want more information
about buyer, scientific and
908
00:47:59,500 --> 00:48:02,000
environs week?
Yeah.
909
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:04,500
So for by our scientific, you
can find us on LinkedIn or
910
00:48:04,500 --> 00:48:06,800
simply Googling buyer
scientific.
911
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,100
Our website will come right up.
There's plenty of information
912
00:48:09,100 --> 00:48:12,500
there and of course, were ready
and willing to look at any
913
00:48:12,500 --> 00:48:15,800
applications and have a, you
know, a discussion to better
914
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:17,700
understand the Of them said to
see how we might be able to
915
00:48:17,700 --> 00:48:20,700
help.
If so, then I was likewise from
916
00:48:20,700 --> 00:48:24,700
virus sweet in virus, with.com
or website for the best place to
917
00:48:24,700 --> 00:48:29,100
look at.
Some find us and they were very
918
00:48:29,100 --> 00:48:32,100
much, really excited about
continuing developing some of
919
00:48:32,100 --> 00:48:33,900
these.
And, and at the end of days,
920
00:48:33,900 --> 00:48:35,900
it's about creating the
situational awareness.
921
00:48:35,900 --> 00:48:38,700
So, that operations can't really
act on it, so that's the key
922
00:48:38,700 --> 00:48:40,400
aspect.
And that's great, guys.
923
00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:42,800
