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.

00:00:03,500 --> 00:00:07,700
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.

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
