Pitot Testing: The Gold Standard For Wholesale And Production Meter Accuracy Evaluation
For most water utilities, master and production meters represent the system's financial and operational truth. These meters quantify the volume of water entering the distribution network, support water accountability programs, validate NRW calculations, and influence everything from treatment costs to rate structures.

Reimagining Wastewater Screening: Advances In Headworks Protection That Reduce Downstream Costs
Wastewater treatment plants are facing a more challenging influent environment than ever before, making effective inlet screening a much higher priority. Extreme weather is driving bigger and more frequent peaking events heavily laden with plastics and other non-biodegradable debris, while modern waste stream challenges like flushable wipes, pharmaceuticals that bind to solids, fats, and oils that form fatbergs, and a growing load of non-dissolvable materials are overwhelming systems designed for a bygone era.

Why Vessel Design Is The Ultimate Performance Driver For Media Filters
Choosing the right media is only the first step. Vessel and underdrain design often determine whether filtration systems meet expectations — or quietly fall short over time.
