DRINKING WATER CASE STUDIES AND WHITE PAPERS

• Efficient Carbon And Ion Exchange Media Exchange

  This document outlines the essential steps required to exchange spent media, including disposal of spent media.

• Geoinfo Services Designs A Low-Carbon Water System To Provide Clean, 24/7 Service To One Of India's Holiest Cities

  In this case study, read about a network design that reduced energy use while improving health and quality of life for one of India's holiest cities. 

• Hamad International Airport Reduces Leaks By 60%

  The airport had to deal with a large volume of non-registered water in its extensive water distribution networks. In the light of this situation, the implementation of Idrica’s services and technology managed to boost efficiency in the facilities. The results included a 60% reduction in the number of leaks and a 20% drop in maintenance costs.

• Addressing Water Treatment Challenges: Technology Access Limitations By Small, Rural Water Utilities

  With aging infrastructures, lean and limited personnel, lower budgets, and less accessible, often remote locations, smaller and rural water treatment plants are challenged in maintaining operations while understanding new and important technologies in improving contaminant removal in water treatment. 

• EPA Research Provides Important Information On Health Effects Of Perchlorate Exposure

  To further our understanding of the effect of perchlorate exposure on the developing brain, there is a need for studies of perchlorate exposure and developmental neurotoxicity health outcomes.

• Why Should I Install A Water Storage Tank Mixer?

  Throughout my experience, I’ve tried countless ways to ensure my drinking water was of high quality. By far, the best, most efficient, and effective way I’ve found is by using an active water storage tank mixer.

• Water Scarcity And Water Stress: The Difference And Solution

  Understanding the difference and similarities between water stress and water scarcity is the first step in building a plan for a more sustainable, resilient water distribution system. 

• Moving Beyond Flow Measurement To Unlock Utility Efficiency

  Smart meters offer the opportunity for utilities to do significantly more with the same number of devices, reducing operational costs, improving response times, and contributing to overall system sustainability.

• What You Need To Know About The 3 Types Of Iron Filter Media

  Several treatment processes can be used to remove iron and manganese from ground water for potable water supplies. Iron and manganese are typically found in groundwater in a dissolved state and appear clear. While there are various less common treatment methods used (such as ion exchange and ultra-filtration), most treatment systems for iron and manganese oxidize the ferrous state of iron to a ferric state so the solid particles can then be filtered out.

• Mapping Assets For Resilience And Response In Emergencies

  Among utilities concerned about resilience and response in natural disasters or other emergencies, precise asset inventory and mapping are high priorities. In truth, there is value in having the same information for everyday purposes as well. For anyone who has ever had a problem locating or tracking key water or wastewater system assets, here are several good reasons and ways to avoid a last-minute scramble.
