MORE WATER INDUSTRY FEATURES

• The Cheapest Capital You'll Deploy This Year Is The Sensor That Doesn't Break

  A growing infrastructure funding gap requires utilities to maximize every capital dollar. Relying on continuous, trustworthy monitoring data allows systems to shift away from age-based asset replacement and target maintenance precisely where water quality degrades.

• Why Industrial Pretreatment Programs Are Drowning In Administration, And What Modern Technology Can Do About It

  Evaluating industrial discharge data manually consumes valuable staff time and increases risk. Automated sampling ingestion flags limit violations instantly, streamlining enforcement, reducing administrative strain, and keeping municipal wastewater treatment infrastructure protected.

• EPA's Proposed Perchlorate Regulation: What It Means For Treatment Engineers And Oxidation Strategies

  EPA’s proposed perchlorate regulation challenges utilities to integrate advanced oxidation and separation technologies, enabling reliable removal, regulatory compliance, and flexible treatment for emerging contaminants.

• 4 Essential Truths About Carbon Reactivation

  Long-standing myths about GAC reactivation are being increasingly challenged, revealing performance, cost, and sustainability benefits many utilities may have overlooked.

• PPD Filters: Pleated Polypropylene Depth Media

  Increase process efficiency using high-capacity depth filtration to remove contaminants, protect downstream filters, and extend filter life for more consistent results.

• Challenges In Ensuring Long-Term Water Quality (And How To Address Them)

  Read about how mixers help prevent stratification, maintain consistent disinfectant distribution, and reduce sediment buildup, thereby mitigating public health risks associated with water storage.

• That Color Isn't Right – What Went Wrong?

  Chemical interferences during water testing can hide critical corrosion issues and fuel bacterial growth. Understanding colorimetric chemistry helps operators accurately identify testing anomalies, correct pH conditions, and protect cooling systems from bio-fouling.

• How Regulatory Pressure Is Driving Innovation In Surface Water Facilities

  What does it take to stay ahead of tightening drinking water standards? See how utilities are turning regulatory pressure into smarter infrastructure investment.

• 1,4-Dioxane And Advanced Oxidation: Designing Treatment Systems Around Radical Chemistry

  Learn why advanced oxidation processes are critical for treating 1,4-dioxane and how ozone-based systems can improve contaminant destruction and water quality.

• In A Drought, Non-Revenue Water Is The Cheapest New Supply You Have

  Drought conditions force utilities to seek new water sources, yet reducing non-revenue water offers an immediate supply boost. Eliminating sample waste and targeting line flushing recovers fully treated water without expensive capital projects.

• Analytical Blind Spots That Derail Microbial Programs Before The Clinic

  High refolding yields aren’t enough. Learn how analytical characterization, structural equivalence testing, and optimized fermentation reduce scale-up risk and improve quality.

• Containment Solutions For API Weighing And Dispensing In Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

  Potency bands and exposure limits are a starting point for containment selection, not the answer. Quantity, dustiness, transfer method and process energy determine whether a control fits weighing and dispensing.

• Peace River Manasota Regional Water Supply Authority Uses Powdered Activated Carbon To Ensure High Quality Drinking Water

  Founded in 1982, Peace River Manasota Regional Water Supply Authority supplies drinking water to a region of approximately one million people. Its surface water treatment plant draws water from the Peace River to a reservoir and treats it to drinking water standards at the rate of about 31 million gallons a day.

• Lentiviral Vector Upstream Process

  Scalable lentiviral vector production is moving beyond adherent systems. Learn how streamlined workflows enable linear scale-up in stirred-tank bioreactors for cost-effective gene therapy manufacturing.

• The Role Of Ozone In Municipal Water Treatment

  Discover why ozone, a powerful oxidant and sanitizer, has become a leading solution for addressing water quality challenges.

• Process Intensification And Other Ways To Adapt To Changing Needs

  As biologics manufacturing evolves, gain insight into why productivity depends on smarter investments, flexible production strategies, and supplier support that can address shifting modalities.

• Colorado Utility Removes PFCS From Well With Xylem's Ion Exchange System

  Perfluoro compounds (PFCs), which are suspected carcinogens, are a growing concern for communities and a challenge that many water utilities need to address. When the Stratmoor Hills Water District detected PFCs in a seasonal well, the utility partnered with Evoqua, a Xylem company, to find a cost-effective solution.

• Navigating EPA Surface Water Treatment Rules In 2026 And Beyond

  Single-future design assumptions are no longer sufficient. See what scenario modelling reveals about building treatment infrastructure that performs across decades of uncertainty.
