Abstract
As air regulations controlling volatile organic compounds (VOCs) become more strict, many flexographic printers are switching to water-based ink technology to reduce their emissions. With water-based ink production on the rise, the flexographic industry has begun exploring alternatives for handling the waste generated from working with these inks.
