Airports and Aviation Industry

Hach^® understands that the total organic carbon (TOC) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) content of your airport runoff water can change dramatically in just minutes due to weather, deicing, mishaps or any number of unpredictable events. Periodic monitoring and composite samples simply aren’t enough to dependably maintain compliance.

Whether it’s everyday runway and parking runoff or the rapid-change, high-impact of deicing events, Hach’s field instruments, process control and lab equipment are designed to give you the power to maintain continual compliance in real time, system-wide. When an organic load exceeds compliance parameters, it can be automatically diverted for treatment or holding. No delay. No disruption. No violations.

Our equipment has been designed and tested to remain reliable and online through the harshest and most changing conditions. Surface water containing silt, sand, particulates or other matter doesn’t impact uptime or performance. With self-cleaning and diagnostics, uptime is at a maximum and maintenance can be as little as once or twice annually.

We also offer the training and unmatched service and support to help your team make the most of our solutions and keep your airport’s water system efficient, adaptive and compliant.

Airports need to manage stormwater runoff and mitigation of organics due to de-icing, fuel, and other tarmac contaminants

Featured Applications for the Aviation Industry

De-icing Pad

When bad weather hits, the last thing you need to worry about is your wastewater monitoring equipment. With Hach, you are choosing time-proven quality and functionality that offers world-class reliability and control. When the TOC or COD content of your surface water shifts rapidly due to glycol contamination, your system acts without hesitation or delay, seamlessly diverting and managing.

Runway and Gate Runoff

Hach understands that daily airport functions still require a strict degree of monitoring to ensure surface water meets standards no matter what’s happening on the tarmac. Our instrument reliability and responsive support provide the efficiency, control, and visibility to stay on top of the daily requirements for compliance and efficiency.
