Optimizing Wastewater When Expansion Isn't An Option

Population growth, combined with a lack of land for new clarifiers, is putting a strain on wastewater plant operators in a number of places across the country. Smaller, more efficient clarifiers can provide the solution in a cost-effective manner. The key to their performance is rooted in flow control while optimizing detention times, energy inputs, and the use of coagulants. In this Water Talk interview, Tom Grubb, technical sales manager for Meurer Research, Inc. (a Parkson brand), discusses the advanced technology that is helping wastewater treatment plant operators in growth centers to address their requirements.
