• While some defoamers are formulated to be
  environmentally friendly, others may contain
  components that pose risks if not managed
  properly. Silicone-based defoamers, for example,
  can persist in the environment and contribute to
  water pollution if not disposed of responsibly.
  Studies indicate that improperly managed defoamer
  waste containing silicone compounds has been
  identified as a potential source of water
  contamination in certain industrial settings.
