DRINKING WATER CASE STUDIES AND WHITE PAPERS

• Water Authority Chooses Siemens Pressure Transmitters For Accuracy, Reliability And Ease Of Use

  A county water authority in the Northeast U.S. supplies over 40 million gallons per day to its 340,000 residential customers. In this case study, learn why they chose Siemens pressure transmitters. 

• EPA Creates Database To Find Thermal Treatment Processes For Remediating PFAS

  Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of synthetic chemicals that have been in use since the 1940s. PFAS are found in a wide array of consumer and industrial products. Due to their widespread use and persistence in the environment, most people in the United States have been exposed to PFAS. There is evidence that continued exposure above specific levels to certain PFAS may lead to adverse health effects.

• Bridging The Gap: How LeakZon Unifies SCADA And AMI For Smarter Water Management

  In the world of water utilities, two crucial systems often operate in parallel: SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) and AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure). While both play vital roles in managing water networks, their separation can create challenges for utilities striving for efficiency and reduced water loss.

• Insta-Valve 250 Provides Permanent Control After Traditional Valve Fails

  During an infrastructure improvement project, the Town of Windsor discovered an inoperable valve close to the historic downtown area. With residences, a fire department, a middle school, and businesses nearby, the loss of a control point could create significant issues should routine maintenance or an emergency repair be required. Also, replacing the valve would disrupt service to essential services within the area.

• BEACON® SaaS Provides Real-Time Data, Improving Customer Service And Accuracy

  With a 2,400 square mile service area and approximately 40,000 customers to serve in southeastern Illinois, EJ Water Cooperative was having difficulties scheduling the nearly 4,000-mile monthly drive to complete a meter reading cycle. The rising cost of their aging system and the need to reduce operating costs prompted the search for a new meter reading system.

• Strategic Valve Insertion Prevents Widespread Shutdown At Military Facility

  Learn how a military installation used an Insta-Valve insertion valve to repair a water leak, minimizing disruption and costs. Hydra-Stop's support was valued in maintaining military readiness.

• Niederzeuzheim WWTP Case Study The villages of Oberzeuzheim and Niederzeuzheim, Germany are served by the Niederzeuzheim wastewater treatment plant. The plant was originally designed as a nitrification facility for a population of approximately 3,000.
• NE Alabama Water District Case Study Northeast Alabama Water District (NEAW) services 15,200 connections within 2,052 square miles, resulting in a very large distribution area.
• How To Save Time, Save Money With Pilot-Plant Testing

  When developing water or wastewater treatment processes for entirely new applications or modifying existing processes to accommodate changing water characteristics or regulatory discharge requirements, understanding capital investment, operating cost, and long-term performance is critical. Here are several ways to view pilot-plant or lab-scale testing as viable approaches to better outcomes with lower risks.

• Cottage Grove Municipal Treatment System Removes PFAS Compounds From Well Water Using Granular Activated Carbon

  Located in the Twin Cities metro area, the city of Cottage Grove, Minnesota, needed to increase the capacity of its drinking water system. To meet demands for compliant water two additional wells were equipped with treatment systems designed to reduce PFAS.
