Tech/Engineering - Environment & Ecology / Waste water
German term or phrase: Galvanikabwasser
From a brochure about an equipment manufacturer - this bit deals with their responsible approach to the environment:
"Mit einer effizienten Reinigungsanlage der Galvanikabwässer ist Dings bereits vor vielen Jahren vorangegangen."

My guess is 'waste water from electroplating'.
