How A Combo Utility Benefits From AMI

With both water and power customers to serve, the city of Dothan, AL needed an advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) solution that could work as well with 35,000 water meters located in pits as it did with 31,000 electric meters wired to homes.

Resilience In The Face Of Emerging Contaminants

There are over 150,000 public drinking water systems in the United States, and more than 80 percent of the population receives their potable drinking water from these systems. And today our water systems are faced with a growing list of challenges.

Using Supersaturated Dissolved Oxygen To Reduce Costs And Increase Treatment Capacity

Supersaturated dissolved oxygen (SDOX) can cut aeration-related energy costs in half for a range of applications, including activated sludge systems, oxidation ditches, odor control in collection systems, and more.

10 Essentials To Specify A Thermal Mass Gas Flow Meter

Whether you are working on a plant upgrade, a process improvement, or an expansion project, doing your homework on the application and installation will save you time and expense. To specify a thermal mass flow meter correctly, there are 10 key questions you will want to consider.

How Ozone Generators Effectively Remove 1,4-Dioxane From Water Supplies

This white paper shows how ozone can be used for the safe, effective removal of 1,4-dioxane from water. 

Redefining The Way Fluids Are Transported Today

ALTRA3D is the answer to a number of challenges experienced in the field by first responders using hoses in extreme conditions.

Remove Perfluorinated Compounds From Drinking Water — Without Creating A Toxic Waste Stream

Water utility managers have a lot of responsibilities, not the least of which is to keep up with the latest in the industry — especially contaminants like PFAS. Water Online spoke with Calgon Carbon about these important emerging contaminants and how best to remove them.

Navigating Troubled Waters: 5 Challenges To Water Utility Profitability

Water utilities are the unsung heroes of modern society, providing us with the lifeline of clean and safe water. However, they face a barrage of challenges that threaten their efficiency, profitability, and, by extension, the sustainability of this vital service.

Opportunities And Challenges In Decentralized Wastewater Reuse Applications

Decentralized wastewater management, when coupled with reuse or recycling of treated sanitary sewage, increases treatment options and creates even greater value than when employed alone.

City Of Columbus: Facilities And Safety Training Management

The City of Columbus entered into a Consent Order with the USEPA to reduce sewer overflows, and 360Water was hired to develop the facilities training and documentation.

Lead And Leaks: The Many Benefits Of Replacing Old Pipes

Neighborhoods in the U.S. unexpectedly flood from burst pipes, and cities must send unwanted notices to residents about lead traces in the water. These unfortunate circumstances happen often but are easily preventable by replacing old pipes. Utility professionals and engineers must collaborate to upgrade pipe infrastructure to be sturdier and contaminant-free. What are the benefits of these efforts?
