Drinking Water Application Notes

  1. LC-MS Analysis Of PFAS Compounds In EPA 533 After Supelclean™ ENVI-WAX SPE Cleanup 8/29/2022

    This application note demonstrates the extraction and subsequent analysis of 25 related analytes from water using Supelco SPE cartridges.

  2. Temperature Monitoring For Water Treatment 4/29/2024

    Learn how to ensure compliance, monitor water temperature diligently, and implement robust measures to mitigate regulatory penalties.

  3. Application Note: Busseron Creek Watershed Partnership Addresses Concerns In A Rural Watershed 1/20/2010
    As with other watershed organizations, the Busseron Creek Watershed Partnership (BCWP) exists because of surface water quality degradation. In this case, those waters drain 163,231 acres of a watershed that crosses the boundaries of Vigo, Clay, Green, and Sullivan counties in West- Central Indiana. By YSI
  4. Pile Cloth Media Filtration Removes 97% Of Microplastics From Wastewater 12/6/2023

    Learn about filtering microplastics from industrial wastewater prior to discharge, and how this is one way to effectively reduce the volume of this waste material from entering our surface water.

  5. 'TOTEX' Is Key When Purchasing Instrumentation 4/29/2021

    There’s a lot to be considered in the price tag of an ultrasonic instrument. Derek Moore from Siemens explains how the historical way of thinking only of capital costs needs to change to the more holistic approach of total expenditures.

  6. (E)-2-Nonenal In Beer 4/5/2015

    Numerous compounds contribute to changes in beer flavor as it becomes stale. One of these compounds, (E)-2-nonenal, has been investigated as a major source of the papery/cardboard flavor that develops in aged beer.

  7. LC-MS/MS Analysis Of PFAS Extractables In Polyethersulfone Syringe Filters Using EPA 537.1 5/18/2022

    A key consideration for any PFAS method is to avoid contamination that can impact the accuracy of data, including those coming from sample preparation techniques such as filtration.

  8. Application Note: Continuous Monitoring Of Drinking Water Provides Assurance Of Safety 9/28/2005
    A water utility in Ohio wanted to learn more about the variability of water quality parameters such as pH, ORP, turbidity, and chlorine. Previously, most of these parameters had been measured by spot sampling protocols with only a few measurements during a daily period. In order to more accurately assess the water variability, the utility used a YSI 6920DW Drinking Water Multiprobe
  9. Protecting Pumps From Dead Head Conditions 4/6/2017

    The C445 motor management relay offers the most configurable protection options in the industry, with features specifically designed to protect critical pumps from costly damages due to dead-head and other underloaded or starved pump conditions.

  10. The Basics: Testing RO Quality 4/28/2014

    Osmosis is the phenomenon of lower dissolved solids in water passing through a semi-permeable membrane into higher dissolved solids water until a near equilibrium is reached.
