Webinar: A Better Choice for Chemical Feed Control

The water treatment chemicals market is growing from $37.5B in 2022 to $53.8B by 2032. Chemical costs have surged, making accurate measurement critical. Traditional flow meters offer 1.5–5% accuracy, while Coriolis mass flow meters reach 0.1%, saving costs. This presentation highlights where Coriolis meters outperform others and how they solve tough measurement challenges in water and wastewater treatment. Click here to learn more.
