11.20.25 -- How To Keep Wastewater Running When Ransomware Strikes; EPA Unveils 'Durable' WOTUS Proposal

Choosing the wrong MDM vendor creates massive risks, including financial strain, operational disruption from data inaccuracy, and technical limitations. A poor selection can severely damage customer trust and stifle future innovation.

Not all cloth filtration media are created equal. OptiFiber’s woven depth filtration design delivers superior solids removal, more efficient backwashing, and longer lifespan — reducing total cost of ownership for wastewater utilities.

Since 1857, Mueller Water Products have been helping municipalities increase operational efficiencies, improve customer service and prioritize capital spending. Throughout this time Mueller has played an essential role in the research, development and manufacturing of products and services used in water systems across North America.

A municipal wastewater plant in North America sought a reliable flow measurement for one of their key wastewater lines. The existing dual-channel ultrasonic flow meter from a competitor had consistently failed to provide accurate readings.

Ozone systems build resilience into water treatment. They ensure utilities remain chemically self-sufficient, allow fast recovery from power outages, and handle rapid water quality shifts.

KETOS PRISM is an environmental intelligence tool that sources, aggregates, and analyzes publicly available environmental data from various sources, including the EPA, USGS, NOAA, and NASA.

Effective pressure management is essential for reliable municipal water delivery, preventing pipe bursts, improving energy efficiency, and extending infrastructure life. Balancing flow and pressure, which are affected by factors like elevation and pipe integrity, is key to utility operations.

Understanding global and national water standards is essential for compliance and safety. Rapid changes in regulation and the rise of emerging contaminants demand smarter, data-driven monitoring strategies.

From ragging and grit to odors and cost constraints, wastewater operators face persistent challenges. Proven headworks technologies and preventative maintenance help utilities improve performance, reduce downtime, and control costs.

BABAA-compliant flow meters help utilities secure federal funding, avoid waiver delays, and simplify documentation by ensuring domestic manufacturing and fully traceable components.

Stricter nutrient limits and rising costs are putting real pressure on wastewater operations. Join Hach’s upcoming webinar to see how advanced online analyzers are helping facilities stay compliant and save big. Hear two real-world success stories — a municipal plant preventing permit violations and a beverage facility saving $350K a year — plus learn practical strategies to boost efficiency and ROI. Click here to learn more.

As an essential tool for firefighting agencies and emergency services worldwide, aqueous film forming foams (AFFF) have been favored to provide a rapid and effective solution to suppress fires. Unfortunately, AFFF contains per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) which have both adverse environmental impact and potential health risks.

In this episode of Water Talk, Angela Godwin sits down with Beth Powell, president of Fluid Conservation Systems, to discuss urgent challenges and promising innovations in the water industry. Powell highlights aging infrastructure — especially in the Northeast, where 150-year-old pipes are still in use — and rising concerns over water scarcity in the West.

Easy, fast, and reliable valve control is essential to the smooth and reliable operation of your process.
