Factoring Temperature Into Water Chemistry Reading Accuracy

Water that exhibits certain chemical or electrical characteristics at laboratory temperatures can provide entirely different readings in the field. Here is a quick review of what to look for in common water tests and why to consider automatic temperature compensation in the instruments used to collect them.

MEGA-STOP Bell Protection System Aids In Pipe Joint Assembly

Water and wastewater piping come in a variety of materials, joints, and diameters. They can meet a multitude of demands and needs for the country's infrastructure.

Comparing Benefits Of V-Cone And Coriolis Meters

Proper operation of water treatment processes depends on accurate flow measurements. Also, flow data is often required by regulatory agencies.

A Fairy Tale Ending At A Pump Station

When the Otay River Pump Station had a floating blanket of grease problem, they turned to the Vaughan Chopper Pump to help eliminate it — while also being a cost-effective solution.

How To Optimize Your DAF System With Air Dissolving Pumps

Despite their importance in modern wastewater applications, not all DAFs are created equal. Factors, such as the components that make up these systems, will influence how well they work and how long they last.

Metering-as-a-Service — A Revolutionary Approach To Advance The Water Industry

Metering-as-a-Service (MaaS) provides a means for utilities to transition to, or upgrade existing advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) with no upfront cost and immediate ROI.

The Role Of AI In One Water: Transforming Non-Revenue Water Management With LeakZon

One of the greatest challenges in achieving a holistic water management philosophy is non-revenue water (NRW) — water that is lost before reaching consumers due to leaks, theft, or inaccurate metering.

The Root Of The Problem: How Trees Affect Our Sewers

In this article, explore how tree roots grow and how they impact our sewer systems.

UK PVC Windows And Doors Manufacturer Uses Galaxy Filters To Achieve High Quality Process Water

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.

Challenges In Ensuring Long-Term Water Quality (And How To Address Them)

Read about how mixers help prevent stratification, maintain consistent disinfectant distribution, and reduce sediment buildup, thereby mitigating public health risks associated with water storage.
