One of the U.K.’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.

Let’s walk through how engineering firms and asset owners are using BIM in real life to improve their business position — using an imaginary interview of a forward-thinking civil engineer at a design expo:

Cybersecurity continues to grow as a critical initiative for water utilities, with certain trends helping to drive and even accelerate digital transformation.

Conventional activated sludge treatment for wastewater is becoming increasingly problematic over time. Not only does the process require significant amounts of energy, which drives up operating expenses, but utilities are under mounting pressure from the U.S. EPA to go green.

“Digital water is already here” is the clear message after interviewing utility executives and leading experts from around the globe.

Officials at the Jefferson Parish Sewerage Department approached the team at Digital Engineering to find a long-term solution for the odor and corrosion issues throughout the East Bank Wastewater Treatment Plant. 

Landlocked, shallow bodies of water such as recreational ponds, irrigation, drinking water, and animal waste lagoons have a major problem with flow. The only natural method of movement in these bodies of water is the slight Coriolis effect of the earth and wind.

A key consideration for any PFAS method is to avoid contamination that can impact the accuracy of data, including those coming from sample preparation techniques such as filtration.

In many clean water pump applications, performance problems affect only a small segment of the total infrastructure. Dealing with routine repairs, extinct pump OEMs, or changing performance requirements does not have to come down to all-or-nothing replacement.

Here is one example of how challenging a 36”-line repair can become, plus five guidelines to help decision-makers minimize the risks of the same happening to them.

The Rahway Valley Sewerage Authority (RVSA), which operates a large wastewater treatment plant in New Jersey, embarked on a green co-generation waste-to-energy project to power a portion of its operations.

Due to population growth in recent years, Sanessol, the concessionaire responsible for the water supply and sewage treatment of Mirassol and part of Igua Saneamento Group, decided to use a state-of-the-art technology for their new WWTP, Fartura.

We discuss the function of various types of chemicals used, and why we believe a FLEXFLO peristaltic dosing pump is the best choice to deliver those chemicals.

The combination of water scarcity and aging infrastructure is pushing water utilities to use machine learning analytic software to predict demand patterns and develop long-term investment plans.

Learn how to choose a solutions provider that can act as a natural partner to both the WWTP and the design engineer for expansions, retrofits, or greenfield projects.

Now, leak detection options that include acoustic monitoring as a built-in feature of residential water meter replacement are cutting the costs and complexity of identifying NRW losses and recapturing lost revenues.

Trickling filters have been the workhorse of the biological wastewater treatment industry for over 100 years. Trickling filters have proven to efficiently remove pollutants from wastewater since their inception, earning recognition as a technology that will continue to serve the industry well into the future.

Throughout my experience, I’ve tried countless ways to ensure my drinking water was of high quality. By far, the best, most efficient, and effective way I’ve found is by using an active water storage tank mixer.

There is a lot of buzz and hype around machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI). While machine learning and AI can be powerful tools to solve practical business challenges, these kinds of techniques are not a silver bullet.  

Learn about what’s available and what’s coming in the safe and permanent destruction of PFAS.
