Cooling Tower Crisis: How Hydrogen Peroxide Scrubbed Away The Bacteria Buildup

A West coast power plant needed an immediate solution to clean its cooling tower that was fast, cost effective, and did not require removal and manual cleaning of the tower's fill material. 

Protecting Wastewater Treatment Equipment And Improving The Bottom Line With Septage Receiving Stations

Learn about a solution that employs a combination of grinding, solids removal, washing, and dewatering, and enables a typical septage truck to unload in 5 to 15 minutes. 

Understanding The Impact Of Entrained Gas On Flow Measurement Accuracy In Wastewater Treatment

Understanding how entrained gas can disrupt flow measurement ― and the technologies that can help overcome this challenge ― are key to ensuring reliable and efficient plant operation.

It Takes Two To Tango: Effective Water Loss Management

Reducing non-revenue water (NRW) and managing water loss is a critical challenge in water utilities. However, it’s important to understand that there’s no magic solution to this problem.

Nutter Fort Embraces Smart Water Technology For A Sustainable Future

Discover how Nutter Fort, WV, modernized its water infrastructure with smart metering technology, reducing water loss, cutting costs, and fostering sustainability in a close-knit community.

How To Cost-Effectively Increase Pumping Station Capacity

Early detection of leaks can preserve pumping station capacity. Full-profile insertion (FPI) mag meters can be installed near valves and bends, making them ideal for pumping stations.

Pentair Next-Gen Submersible Helps Protect Danville, Indiana

The County Home Lift Station in Danville, Indiana, plays a crucial role in managing wastewater for a diverse area that includes a regional hospital, a county jail, a landfill, and numerous businesses and residences.

How Pipeline Monitoring Transforms A Smart Water City

Learn about Smart Water Cities, a forward-thinking approach that leverages advanced Information and Communication Technologies like Big Data and AI to monitor and manage urban water systems in real time.

A New AMI LineTOC Reference At Haw Par Healthcare Ltd

The existing TOC analyzer at the Haw Par Healthcare Facility was found to be in need of replacement. Explore the process that led to the successful completion of the project. 

How Fluorometers Are Revolutionizing Wastewater Treatment Plants

Wastewater treatment plants are tasked with removing contaminants from water before it’s safely released back into the environment. With the complexity and volume of wastewater treatment, traditional monitoring methods can be slow and labor-intensive. However, fluorometers are transforming how these plants operate by providing rapid, real-time measurements of water quality.

Scanning The Snow From The Sky

If you want to know about the snow, the sky is the limit when it comes to collecting data about the mountain snowpack. That’s why Denver Water, the Colorado Water Conservation Board, and other water providers across the state are investing in a high-tech program to measure snowpack using lasers from a plane.

 

Algae Can Clean Sewage Without Electricity Or Chemicals — We Put It To The Test

Large wastewater facilities are designed to remove physical, chemical, and biological contaminants from domestic wastewater or industrial effluent, producing treated water that is safe to discharge into rivers. But they’re expensive and energy-intensive. They’re also difficult to maintain in rural areas where local government doesn’t get much revenue.
