DRINKING WATER CASE STUDIES AND WHITE PAPERS

• Case Study: Singapore Utility Eliminates Harmful Transients Improving System Reliability And Prolonging The Asset Life

  Water scarcity has long prompted water self-sufficiency in Singapore, the third most densely populated country in the world, with 5.6 million residents crowded into just over 275 square miles.

• Advancing The Potential For Stormwater Reuse: Investigation Of Water Quality And Treatment

  Managing stormwater runoff is a complex environmental challenge for communities across the country. As stormwater runoff flows into nearby waterways, it can collect various pollutants including trash, chemicals, oils, and dirt, which can lead to environmental and public health impacts.

• AFC SEMPER RPM Used To Study New Fairfield, California Transmission Line

  In March 2021, the city of Fairfield, California’s Water Division was tasked with commissioning a new 36-inch Cross Town Transmission Line (CTTL). The CTTL will enhance the already robust distribution system and better serve the water needs of the Water Division’s 33,000 customers. This new CTTL, however, will change the dynamics of the city’s current distribution system. To better understand how the new CTTL would affect operations, the AMERICAN Flow Control SEMPER Remote Pressure Monitor (RPM) was deployed to strategic points throughout the system.

• Drinking Water Disinfection At Lunenberg, Massachusetts, USA Local Community

  In this case study, read how the Lunenburg Water District improved their water disinfection system with the installation of an Atlantium RZ300-11 HOD UV system. The system effectively disinfects water, meets future demands, and eliminates chlorine taste and odor.

• SPRWS Upgrades To Corrosion-Resistant Zinc-Coated Ductile Iron Water Main

  It is no secret that a large portion of the drinking water infrastructure in the United States is near or past its intended design life. Our nation’s water infrastructure needs an overhaul, and the cost of doing so is climbing rapidly. The American Society of Civil Engineering’s 2017 Infrastructure Report Card graded the nation’s drinking water infrastructure a D. According to the American Water Works Association, an estimated $1 trillion is necessary to maintain and expand drinking water service to meet demands over the next 25 years.

• Tennessee Town Checks For Water Loss In More Than 8,000 Feet Of Pipe

  Learn how Electro Scan helped a rural Tennessee town check for water loss and to find the sources of its non-revenue water (NRW). 

• Wastewater Plant In Como, Italy, Upgrades To De Nora Ozone For Significant Savings

  The Lariana Depur wastewater treatment plant in Fino Mornasco, Italy, treats wastewater from multiple textile manufacturers in the Como region, known as the heart of the textile industry. Since 1994, ozone has been used effectively as a polisher to remove the dark blue-purple color — the result of the dyes used in the textile dyeing and printing process — from the water.

• PFAS Beyond Removal: 7 Often-Overlooked Factors

  While performance and cost matter, there are a range of other factors that can have a substantial impact on the overall viability and success of a solution.

• PFAS Filtration: Designing For Smaller OPEX And Footprint

  Keys to bring down the cost of PFAS treatment for operations with limited resources — or any operation using media filtration.

• Integrating Multiple Strategies To Optimize Water Use And Minimize Losses

  This white paper will explore a three-pronged approach to handling non-revenue water, helping utilities to manage costs and maintain a healthy water delivery ecosystem.
