12.16.25 -- Study: Federal Water Giveaways Bad For Strained Systems, Taxpayers; Why Utilities Need Transformational Consulting

This series aims to highlight crucial considerations for utilities contemplating cellular networks as the foundation of their communication systems.

In response to Hurricane Harvey, the Fort Bend, TX, Levee District No. 2 embarked on a major upgrade project to increase the flow and capacity of one of its pump stations by 400%. The goal of the project was to protect the area around the district from 100-year floods in the future.

The Boy Scouts of America wanted an environmentally friendly method for disposing of the greywater generated by their shower buildings. Here’s how Orenco’s AdvanTex Treatment Systems helped.

Calera Creek Water Recycling Plant, located in Pacifica, CA, retrofitted to Thermal Process Systems’ ThermAer. This is California’s first installation of the second-generation ATAD system.

One of the UK’s largest manufacturers and suppliers of PVC windows and doors expanded production and required an increase in their cooling water. Read the full case study to learn how Amiad helped.

Wastewater treatment facilities use multiple processes and a variety of equipment to produce water clean enough for reuse. Each process within the treatment train may serve a different function yet use the same or similar equipment. In such cases, standardizing equipment may be beneficial.

Utilities can leverage advanced technologies to make monitoring and maintenance easier for operators to execute with fewer advanced skills, while reducing manpower and increasing the life of equipment.

One of the most perplexing challenges that wastewater plant operators face is the need to measure the various sources of influent. For closed-pipe systems, the use of traditional flow devices requires intensive and expensive engineering to keep the pipe full at the point of measurement. The good news is that there is an emerging solution that measures flow in a less-than-full pipe.

A self-starting backup pump combines the pump and power in a single package, providing 100% redundancy plus additional capacity when needed, all without relying on generators or external power sources.

The ability to treat drinking water both efficiently and to the highest standards is a necessity for municipal water utilities. In some instances, however, the backwash requirement of traditional pressure filter systems is more onerous than it needs to be. By comparison, the multi-cell pressure filter design is highly efficient because it generates its own backwash water source from the other operating cells.
