L&R disposes of received liquid waste through the most environmentally sound method available: solar distillation.
Currently the L&R, Kuna, Idaho facility has seven treatment ponds with a total capacity exceeding 60-million gallons. These treatment ponds are used to evaporate the wastewater. Following evaporation, the consolidated solids are collected and treated through composting or bioremediation.
All liquid waste is profiled before acceptance, then unloaded into one of our seven different treatment ponds. This is where the solar distillation is performed.
