Contaminant Removal Resources

  1. The Benefits Of Pretreatment Prior To Bulk Media Filtration Of PFAS 9/12/2024
    Advantages include enhanced media bed life, reduced waste, minimized downtime, and improved overall system performance.
  2. How Not To Get Oversold On Your PFAS Solution 9/12/2024

    Asking the right questions and properly vetting vendors are key to avoiding an over-engineered PFAS treatment package.

  3. The Risks Of Rushing A PFAS Solution (And How To Avoid Them) 9/12/2024

    Renting a temporary PFAS treatment package gives water treatment plants time to evaluate longer-term options while still meeting the current regulations.

  4. Are We Setting Ourselves Up For Failure With PFAS? 9/5/2024

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

  5. 6 Considerations When Preparing For Carbon Media Replacement 8/29/2024

    This guide can help operators ensure seamless granular activated carbon (GAC) media changeouts, minimizing downtime and maintaining high water quality standards.

  6. How To Future-Proof Your Drinking Water Treatment Process 8/21/2024

    Ozone and biologically active filtration (O3-BAF) can act as an additional barrier for existing systems to protect against emerging contaminants and water quality events.

  7. Rapid Small-Scale Column Tests For PFAS Treatment Evaluation 8/8/2024

    While pilot columns provide the most accurate estimations for predicting full-scale PFAS treatment performance by GAC or IX resin, they can be costly and time-consuming. Rapid small-scale column tests (RSSCTs) offer significant advantages over pilot columns, including less time, lower costs, less media, smaller sample volume, and faster data turnaround.

  8. Thermal Reactivation Series: Calcium Catalysis 7/16/2024

    Understanding the impact of pore size distribution on adsorption is crucial for water utilities aiming to optimize PFAS removal.

  9. Thermal Reactivation Series: A Sustainable And Feasible Solution For Utilities Using GAC 7/16/2024

    GAC’s finite adsorption capacity poses challenges in meeting treatment objectives, including EPA regulatory limits.

  10. A Multi-Billion-Dollar Water Industry Segment Not To Be Overlooked 7/11/2024
    Water resources are a critical component of any region's ecosystems. But, perhaps even more important is the realization that water is also essential for human survival. Its needs cannot be ignored.
