Drinking Water Application Notes

  1. Dissolved Oxygen Measurement 11/11/2013

    One of the most important measurements in the determination of the health of a body of water is its dissolved oxygen content. The quantity of dissolved oxygen in water is normally expressed in parts per million (ppm) by weight and is due to the solubility of oxygen from the atmosphere around us.

  2. Recording & Control: In Coagulant Dosage Applications For Potable Water Treatment 7/1/2019

    Potable water or drinking water as it is also known, is water that is safe to drink or to be used in food preparation. Typically, in developed countries, tap water meets the required drinking water standards although only a small proportion is actually drunk or used in food preparation. Coagulant is added to potable water as part of the treatment to create suspended solids that are large enough to be removed through the process of sedimentation.

  3. Application Note: Using Real-Time Telemetry For Ecological Monitoring Of Coastal Wetlands 2/3/2011
    The Grand Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve (NERR)in Mississippi is one of 27 protected estuarine reserves across the United States. By YSI
  4. Analysis Of Pesticide Residue In Spinach Using The AutoMate-Q40 An Automated QuEChERS Solution 10/16/2014

    QuEChERS is a Quick-Easy-Cheap-Effective-Rugged-Safe extraction method that has been developed for the determination of pesticide residues in agricultural commodities.

  5. MEGA-STOP Bell Protection System Aids In Pipe Joint Assembly 4/13/2021

    Water and wastewater piping come in a variety of materials, joints, and diameters. They can meet a multitude of demands and needs for the country's infrastructure.

  6. Application Note: Miami Conservancy District Uses Nitrate Screening As Conjunctive Management Tool 1/20/2010
    Tasked with monitoring a watershed covering nearly 4,000 square miles, almost 2,300 miles of rivers and streams, and a huge aquifer that provides drinking water for more than 1.2 million people, water quality monitoring specialists at the Miami Conservancy District (MCD) in Dayton, Ohio, have their hands full.

  7. Real-Time Water Quality Data For Agriculture 9/23/2020

    We arm farmers with mission-critical water data to help enhance crop yield and taste. KETOS delivers valuable insights for fluctuations in deficiency and toxicity.

  8. The Basics: ORP and Free Chlorine Monitoring 5/13/2014

    Oxidation Reduction Potential or Redox is the activity or strength of oxidizers and reducers in relation to their concentration. Oxidizers accept electrons, reducers lose electrons. Examples of oxidizers are: chlorine, hydrogen peroxide, bromine, ozone, and chlorine dioxide. Examples of reducers are sodium sulfite, sodium bisulfate and hydrogen sulfide. Like acidity and alkalinity, the increase of one is at the expense of the other.

  9. Dosing Of Sodium Hypochlorite Solution For Drinking Water Disinfection 9/22/2022

    A water purveyor was in urgent need of a chemically resistant flow instrumentation with a long life of service that allowed reliable and long-term stable dosing of the sodium hypochlorite solution.

  10. Optimization Of Water Treatment Using Zeta Potential 5/27/2020

    Drinking water in the US and developed nations of the world is treated to remove contamination of foreign materials, both mineral and organic.
