05.11.26 -- What The Impending "Super El Niño" Means For Water Utilities

Utilities need to revisit mistakes of the past and ask tough questions about what it truly means to treat and remove PFAS.

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.

What does it take to stay ahead of tightening drinking water standards? See how utilities are turning regulatory pressure into smarter infrastructure investment.

Not long ago, systems engineered to manage and mitigate stormwater runoff were predominately of the “gray” variety. Today, however, more and more municipalities are embracing green stormwater infrastructure (GSI).  

As municipalities increasingly switch to vertical dry pit submersible pumps to address flooding concerns, one critical yet often overlooked installation detail can make-or-break system performance: baseplate grouting.

Replacing mechanical seals twice per year was difficult and expensive for Chester, IL, but a more serious problem occurred when the seals failed with the Mississippi River at flood stage and the sealed lift station underwater.

The community of Kinglake West was on a waiting list to receive government financing for a new sewer system when, in 2009, a disastrous fire swept through the area. The damage was so extensive that funding for a wastewater collection system was expedited. The new system needed to be up and running as soon as possible, without being an undue financial burden to homeowners.

Modern biosolids management requires sophisticated biological treatment to achieve Class A pathogen reduction and efficient solids destruction. Explore how integrated aerobic digestion and nutrient management technologies provide reliable, cost-effective paths toward regulatory compliance.

Oil-free blowers are an essential element of municipal and industrial wastewater treatment facilities, where they are utilized to power a variety of applications. Here are eight of the most common processes/applications fueled by blowers.

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.

A dedicated, manufacturer-approved verification system is the ideal solution for maintaining optimal performance of your installed base of KROHNE electromagnetic and mass flow meters.

The existing TOC analyzer at the Haw Par Healthcare Facility was found to be in need of replacement. Explore the process that led to the successful completion of the project.
