Navigating Troubled Waters: 5 Challenges To Water Utility Profitability

Water utilities are the unsung heroes of modern society, providing us with the lifeline of clean and safe water. However, they face a barrage of challenges that threaten their efficiency, profitability, and, by extension, the sustainability of this vital service.

Comparison Of Ultra-Low-Range Total Chlorine Residual Limits Of Detection And Quantitation Across The Water Industry

Limits of detection and quantitation are key to understanding analytical instrumentation capabilities, especially when non-optimal process control can lead to damage of sensitive equipment due to insufficiently accurate readings.

Eliminating Chlorine Sensor Pain Points With New Technology

Next-generation chlorine sensors eliminate the need for reagents and membranes, while offering flow-independent, multi-parameter, self-cleaning operation. This reduces maintenance and enhances monitoring accuracy.

Protecting The Environment With Environmental Remediation

Environmental remediation involves the removal of pollutants to protect human health and restore ecosystems. Learn more about the various techniques used, and how to ensure these projects are handled professionally.

The Importance Of Integrating Your Hydraulic Model With SCADA Systems

This article will explore the key benefits of combining SCADA with hydraulic models, and how engineers, modelers, and operators can work together more effectively.

SpiralWeld Pipe Performs In New Music City Stadium Project

What do the Indy Music City Grand Prix, Taylor Swift Eras Tours concerts, Country Music Awards Festival, and college and NFL football games have in common? These and other events were held at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, TN, in the spring, summer, and fall of 2023. At the same time, crews were installing approximately 2,200 feet of 60" AMERICAN SpiralWeld Pipe.

Building A Sustainable Future With Smart Water Solutions

In a world facing mounting water stress and increasing demands on utilities, ensuring consistent water quality and minimizing pipeline losses have never been more important.

Keep Your Cool: The Importance Of Advanced Side Stream Filtration In Data Center Operation

Advanced side stream filtration protects sensitive cooling infrastructure in data centers, extending membrane life, reducing water and energy use, and preventing costly downtime caused by particulate-loaded cooling water.

Hot Under The Collar? Why Your Pump Motors Overheat

An overheating pump motor can be a worrying issue for operators and engineers alike, but like many pump issues, it is usually a symptom that can be traced to a problem in the system. These common causes of motor overheating are good places to begin.

IFAS System Produces High-Quality Effluent In East Central Kansas

The City of Emporia, in East Central Kansas, experienced an increase in population and more stringent effluent permit requirements resulting in a strained wastewater treatment plant. Emporia retained the services of a local engineering firm to evaluate the current and future needs of the system and recommend an economical, sustainable, and effective solution.

Why Digital Solutions Still Struggle To Gain Traction At Utilities

Utilities need greater efficiency, lower costs, and more visibility. So, one would think the uptake for digital solutions would be smoother and faster. But it’s not. Why? Perhaps solving the operational challenges are only half of the issue.

Governments Need To Prepare For More Frequent Large Floods

While many scientific and technical reports show that floods are becoming larger and more common, reports underestimate how their frequency is changing. Flood sizes get the spotlight, but governments and experts need to also consider their frequency to address implications overlooked by traditional management methods.
