DISTRIBUTION & COLLECTION SYSTEMS

Pipeline Assessment Technology Helps English Water Utility Love Every Drop

In response to a projection of future significant population growth in the area, a utility evaluated 7.2 km (4.5 miles) of an existing line between a reservoir and a treatment facility to determine if it could stand up to increased stress.

 

Installation Of AVT EZ Valves To Support Creation Of Stormwater Retention Pond

Infrastructure modifications on active C900 PVC sewer mains require careful isolation to protect delicate pipe materials. Operating under live line pressure enables safe cutting debris removal while establishing permanent isolation points without triggering costly service shutdowns.

Next-Gen Submersible Solids Handling Pump Helps Protect Pasadena, Texas

A submersible solids handling pump featuring a semi-open impeller and self-cleaning cutter plate solved a severe clogging issue. Operating without a single clog for over six months, the technology delivered "100% uptime" and freed up staff for other vital maintenance.

Understanding Flow And Pressure In Municipal Water Systems

Effective pressure management is essential for reliable municipal water delivery, preventing pipe bursts, improving energy efficiency, and extending infrastructure life. Balancing flow and pressure, which are affected by factors like elevation and pipe integrity, is key to utility operations.

WASTEWATER TREATMENT

Climate Change And Nutrients: Forewarned Is Forearmed

Rising temperatures and precipitation combined with increasing nutrient runoff from human activity are elevating challenges in water treatment efforts. In some cases, that means increased threats to drinking water quality. In others, it means increasingly stringent nutrient discharge levels. Either way, taking the nutrient monitoring battle out to the field can help in waging a better fight at the treatment plant.

 

Advancing Wastewater Treatment Through Specialized Bioaugmentation Solutions

Read about how new anaerobic treatment products address critical challenges in digester performance and biogas production.

Enhancing Wastewater Treatment With Efficient Blower Systems

Welcome to a world where innovation meets a tradition of superior quality — where KAESER delivers products and an experience that raises the bar for what you expect from blower solutions.

Minimizing Aerated Wastewater Treatment System Servicing

Reliability is especially important in the wastewater treatment sector. One is that the blowers have to dependably operate in conditions that are often very harsh.

UTILITY MANAGEMENT

How The North Burleigh Water Treatment Plant Improved Water Quality With Innovative Technology

See how Bismarck’s North Burleigh Water Treatment Plant boosted production by 64%, reduced operating costs by 20%, and improved treatment reliability using an advanced ozone system upgrade.

 

Cost Transparency As A Driver for Operational Efficiency In Wastewater Treatment

Many facilities can tell you their annual budget, and some can tell you what they spent on chemicals last month. However, far fewer can connect costs directly to daily operations. That gap is where cost transparency becomes powerful.

Why Planning Is The Hero Of AMI Deployment

Thorough planning, accurate data, and strong communication are the keys to successful AMI deployments, preventing costly disruptions and ensuring technology delivers long-term operational and customer service value.

Nutter Fort Embraces Smart Water Technology For A Sustainable Future
