WASTEWATER REGULATIONS AND LEGISLATION RESOURCES

  • Trenchless rehabilitation provides a sustainable alternative to traditional excavation for failing sewer infrastructure. High-performance geopolymer liners offer structural restoration in highly corrosive environments, minimizing urban disruption while preventing environmental hazards through efficient, spray-applied application techniques.

  • Protecting residential water access during emergency repairs is essential for municipal reliability. Advanced insertion technology creates permanent control points on live, pressurized lines, preventing large-scale service outages and boil-water advisories for thousands of residents.

  • Critical safety systems must remain operational during repairs. Advanced insertion technology enables the installation of permanent valves on pressurized lines without service interruptions, preventing costly facility shutdowns while ensuring constant fire suppression readiness.

  • Increase productivity and expand service offerings by utilizing advanced reinstatement technology. These high-performance tools allow for precise work in small-diameter lines, enabling the successful completion of complex trenchless projects that traditional methods cannot handle.

  • Real-time nutrient monitoring allows wastewater facilities to detect industrial spikes and prevent permit violations. By utilizing automated, hourly sampling and dual-stream analysis, operators can optimize chemical dosing and maintain consistent effluent quality.

  • Return activated sludge pumps are critical to wastewater treatment, maintaining biological balance, ensuring efficiency, and supporting resilient infrastructure amid aging systems and emerging contaminants.

  • Pump oversizing drives hidden costs through energy waste, reduced reliability, and increased wear, making proper sizing and modern controls critical for long-term efficiency and performance.

  • A next-gen submersible pump eliminated clogging at a high-demand lift station, reducing maintenance, cutting costs, and delivering reliable, clog-free wastewater performance for over a year.

  • Jersey City in New Jersey is undergoing a period of development and growth which has seen its population increase by more than 50,000 people in the last 13 years. To cater for this growth, the Jersey City Municipal Utilities Authority is tasked with maintaining its aging water infrastructure and improving its critical water supply to ensure it can meet the needs of its customers both now and into the future.

  • Modernize solids handling with automated aerobic digestion to manage rapid community growth. This high-rate process increases capacity, ensures Class A compliance, and significantly reduces disposal costs while providing odor-free operations through advanced nutrient and off-gas management.

WASTEWATER SOLUTIONS

  • Oxelia™

    Xylem’s Leopold Oxelia is an ozone-enhanced biologically active filtration system and multi-barrier solution for municipal wastewater treatment. The Leopold Oxelia system combines ozone, filtration and analytical instrumentation to deliver optimal wastewater treatment for water reuse and discharge into sensitive waters.

  • AVFM-II Area-Velocity Flow Meter Monitor flow through open channels, partially full sewer pipes and surcharged pipes without a flume or weir. Ideal for stormwater, combined effluent, raw sewage, irrigation water and streams.
  • Wastewater Collection System That Causes Less Disruption To Communities

    Cost-Effective, Environmentally Sound

    Orenco Sewer™ (effluent-only sewer) is a cost-effective, environmentally sound wastewater collection system. With an Orenco Sewer, raw sewage flows from a house or business to a watertight underground tank. Only the filtered liquid portion is discharged (by either pump or gravity) to shallow, small-diameter collection lines that follow the contour of the land. Solids remain in the underground tank for passive, natural treatment and only need to be pumped every 10 to 12 years (depending on the number of residents and the tank volume).

    Orenco Sewers take significantly less time to install than conventional sewers. And in an Orenco Sewer, material and excavation costs are reduced because the inexpensive collection lines are shallowly buried just below the frost line. Because only liquid is being pumped, system designers don’t need to worry about minimum velocities and associated grades. This simpler installation process causes less disruption to communities and allows businesses to operate normally during construction.

  • Grit Decanter

    Get economical wastewater grit dewatering even at small treatment plants.

  • ROMAG™ CSO Screen

    The ROMAG RSW CSO Screen, fitted between the discharge culvert and the relief sewer, reliably retains all visible solids during peak events.
