DRINKING WATER CASE STUDIES AND WHITE PAPERS

• Understanding Flow And Pressure In Municipal Water Systems

  Effective pressure management is essential for reliable municipal water delivery, preventing pipe bursts, improving energy efficiency, and extending infrastructure life. Balancing flow and pressure, which are affected by factors like elevation and pipe integrity, is key to utility operations.

• Aging Water System Transformed Into Leading Smart Water Solution

  When water utility managers in Bedford, Texas, determined it was time to replace the city’s aging water infrastructure, they anticipated it would be a challenging undertaking. However, by selecting a manufacturing partner with a comprehensive solutions portfolio, the Public Works Department achieved a successful infrastructure replacement project in less than two years.

• Apavital S.A. Digitalizes Water Consumption With Itron's Smart Metering Devices

  Modernize water network management by combining precision ultrasonic metering with advanced acoustic leak detection. This integrated digital approach provides real-time data to identify vulnerabilities, minimize non-revenue water, and optimize distribution for long-term operational sustainability.

• 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.

• Case Study: Deuel Vocational Institution (DVI) ZLD Drinking Water Treatment System, Tracy, CA

  A study was conducted by an environmental engineering firm to design a suitable treatment system for the groundwater currently used as the potable water supply for DVI. Reverse Osmosis (RO) was determined to be an effective technology in meeting the applicable standards for water quality.

• Ozone And PFAS: The Overlooked Tool In A National Water Crisis

  Ozone is a vital pre-treatment for PFAS mitigation. It oxidizes precursors and co-contaminants, significantly extending the service life of downstream GAC and membrane systems.

• No Chlorine, No Contamination: A Cleaner Future For Wastewater Reuse

  As municipalities worldwide look to reuse water for agriculture, industry, and tertiary treatment such as filtration and disinfection prior to discharge or reuse for irrigation or industrial purposes, one inconvenient truth continues to lurk in the pipes: chlorine.

• Chemical Feeders: A Guide To Successful Start-Up And Operation

  Disinfection is essential to municipal water treatment — for both producing a quality product and meeting environmental discharge limits — but the dosing process can be expensive and tedious if not administered efficiently. By carefully evaluating key factors in equipment selection and operation, water and wastewater management professionals can ensure their systems are running as efficiently and effectively as possible.

• Repairing A Suspended Pipe Within 30 Minutes With HYMAX Permanent Repair Sleeve

  In the picturesque village of Arzacq-Arraziguet in southwestern France, a critical water pipeline repair showcased the efficiency of modern tools and techniques.

• Cooling Towers Are Not The Problem — Or At Least They Don't Have To Be

  Water quite literally flows through every facet of life, being the key element for everyone and everything on Earth. The world’s population is increasing at 1.1 percent (roughly 83 million) every year, an incredible and alarming rate straining the world’s fresh water supply. The increasing pressures between what humanity demands and what is currently available emphasizes the importance of conservation.
