Frequently Asked Questions
Does Mako Industries Provide Pilot-Study Equipment?
Yes. Mako Industries supports bench-scale and field pilot studies and can review equipment requirements and current availability for environmental remediation sites. A pilot study can help evaluate a proposed treatment method and develop site-specific operating information before a larger or longer-term system is selected.
A Pilot Study May Help Evaluate
- Achievable airflow, vacuum, water flow, or injection rate
- Contaminant concentrations and removal trends
- Moisture, temperature, pressure drop, and other operating conditions
- Treatment equipment compatibility
- Utility needs and field logistics
- Monitoring and sampling requirements
- Preliminary full-scale equipment sizing
The environmental consultant or project engineer should define the test objectives, sampling plan, acceptance criteria, operating duration, and data interpretation. Mako Industries can then review the equipment requirements and current pilot-system availability.
