04.17.26 -- Finding The Balance Between Water And Energy For A More Sustainable Future

No single disinfection method does it all. Utilities are combining chlorine, UV, and ozone to build more effective, flexible treatment strategies for today’s water challenges.

A water purveyor was in urgent need of a chemically-resistant flow instrumentation with a long life of service that allowed reliable and long-term stable dosing of the sodium hypochlorite solution.

Choose the right chlorine monitoring approach by weighing the continuous, reagent-free speed of amperometric sensing against the superior, stable accuracy of batch-based colorimetric analysis, ensuring long-term reliability based on specific site and process requirements.

The 2000PV is a restraint for PVC pipes and the standardized mechanical joint. This product is the result of years of testing and evaluation, and its performance has been proven by thousands of hours of proof tests, as well as third-party evaluations. This report describes the 2000PV through the 12" size.

Every day in the U.S., an estimated 6 billion gallons of water is lost due to leaks in our water distribution systems. That’s enough to meet the needs of 60 million people — and it’s not just your water that’s being lost.

Mechanical point repair offers a cost-effective, efficient alternative to traditional lining for fixing pipe defects. These thin-profile stainless-steel sleeves restore structural integrity and seal leaks quickly, significantly reducing project costs while maintaining optimal flow.

Because energy costs represent up to 60% of WWTP plant operating expense, air distribution designs and changing loading demands require control strategies designed to adapt to all eventualities efficiently. The following checklists, plus important do’s and don’ts, can help in identifying an underperforming control strategy and developing a better one.

Wastewater screening isn’t one-size-fits-all. The right choice depends on flow, debris, and efficiency needs, with long-term performance and maintenance costs shaping the best solution.

Aerobic granular sludge enables compact, energy-efficient nutrient removal, helping utilities increase capacity and reduce costs without expanding footprint or relying on complex, multi-stage treatment systems.

Digital design is a strategic infrastructure investment: it compounds value across capital programs, improving decision quality, cost accuracy, and operational performance over decades. Deferral carries real opportunity cost.

Open platforms eliminate data silos and vendor lock-in, enabling seamless tool integration and collaborative innovation. This transparent approach democratizes advanced analytics, helping utilities of all sizes optimize network performance and build more resilient infrastructure.

Managing multiple water systems can be complex and challenging. That is why 120Water created the 1-to-many digital solution, PWS Insights, to give those managing multiple systems one place to view all of their data and quickly take action.
