08.04.25 -- Freshwater Disappearing At Alarming Rate

Because the carbon-fluorine bond is one of the shortest and strongest chemical bonds, PFAS are a persistent problem once introduced into the environment. Activated carbon (AC) and ion exchange resin (IX) are two of the commonly used technologies to remove PFAS from groundwater and surface water. 

Discover keys to bring down the cost of PFAS treatment for operations with limited resources — or any operation using media filtration.

Despite meeting European drinking water standards, contamination levels at a brewery reached as high as 800 CFU/ml, prompting the brewery to seek a reliable disinfection solution to protect the integrity of its production processes.

Using advanced hydraulic modeling, EPM is analyzing how water flows through the sewerage system to inform decisions about operations, maintenance, network expansion, and environmental impact mitigation.

Landlocked, shallow bodies of water such as recreational ponds, irrigation ditches, drinking water reservoirs, and animal waste lagoons have a major problem with flow. The only natural methods of movement in these waterbodies are the slight Coriolis effect of the earth and wind.

The use of Vaughan's self-priming chopper pump and nozzles upstream of the influent screens improves plant efficiency and greatly increases the amount of cogenerated electricity from digester gas.

Pinnacle Ozone works with many water professionals in North and South America using a wide spectrum of application methods for water and wastewater treatment. One such company using a novel approach to wastewater treatment is BlueInGreen, LLC, which is based in Fayetteville, Arkansas.

Stories of real success with packaged pumping and wastewater treatment systems at breweries are explored, including for regulatory compliance and/or water reuse capabilities. Packaged pumping and treatment systems have helped hundreds of brewers meet their permits for local collection and/or direct surface discharge.

Certain aeration components have the potential to shut down the aeration unit and bring about unplanned downtime. Here are the ones to have on hand at all times.

Part 5 of the Get Pumped Up series brings it all together with a bold but practical shift: treating pump and lift station design as a living process, not a one-time deliverable.

Discover how the use of new smart technologies helps the Clean Water Project team better protect neighborhoods and local waterways through real-time monitoring of sewer system overflows, further driving digital transformation in one of America’s most historic cities.

Within the water treatment industry, aeration processes consume the most energy. However, costs for electricity are continuing to rise, even for large customers that are accustomed to negotiating lower than average prices.
