Two Processes, One Flow Metering Technology: The Benefits Of Standardization

By Glen Fishman, Fluid Components International (FCI)

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.

For instance, standardizing gas flow meters offers several advantages. Let’s look at an activated sludge plant using anaerobic digestion for biosolids treatment as an example.
