Drinking Water Case Studies and White Papers

1. How Advanced Pressure Monitoring Bolsters Risk Mitigation And Asset Management 9/8/2020

   Properly executing pressure management can attack pipeline failures on two fronts: by avoiding high pressures that exacerbate the problem and by providing the operational awareness needed for managing the most vulnerable spots. The insight provided by newer solutions helps accomplish this by going beyond advanced metering infrastructure as part of the building blocks for a smart utility network.

2. How Strategic Valve Installation Prevented Service Disruption at a Senior Living Facility 5/15/2024

   Learn how Hydra-Stop’s insertion valve provided new control points to mitigate future disruptions during a service line emergency.

3. AFC SEMPER RPM Used To Study New Fairfield, California Transmission Line 9/9/2021

   In March 2021, the city of Fairfield, California’s Water Division was tasked with commissioning a new 36-inch Cross Town Transmission Line (CTTL). The CTTL will enhance the already robust distribution system and better serve the water needs of the Water Division’s 33,000 customers. This new CTTL, however, will change the dynamics of the city’s current distribution system. To better understand how the new CTTL would affect operations, the AMERICAN Flow Control SEMPER Remote Pressure Monitor (RPM) was deployed to strategic points throughout the system.

4. Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor Technology Validated For Title 22 Compliance 2/13/2019

   Title 22 of California’s Water Recycling Criteria is among the strictest water treatment standards for water recycling and reuse in the United States. Fluence’s MABR demonstration plant was installed at the Codiga Resource Recovery Center (CR2C) in Stanford, California, in January 2018 for the purpose of third-party evaluation. The testing parameters included criteria to evaluate reliable enhanced nutrient removal in the form of Total Nitrogen, which is increasingly important across the United States and difficult and costly to achieve through conventional wastewater treatment.

5. AMA Improves Accuracy And Customer Service For Texas City 2/24/2016

   After deployment of an AMI system that didn’t work properly, initially forcing them to manually read meters, Highland Village was in need of a new vendor and product they could count on. Enter Badger Meter and the BEACON® AMA managed solution, with ORION® Cellular endpoints.

6. Recognized Results Based On Quality Assurance And Quality Control 5/11/2016

   Responsibility for analysis results lies with the users themselves or their supervisors. Both are therefore liable for any incorrect interpretations and decisions that are made as a consequence of incorrect data.

7. A Pilot Study Involving Three Different Treatment Media (Loprest) 10/8/2018

   As part of a feasibility study for arsenic treatment at an elementary school in California, a pilot study was conducted to test the performance of three different treatment media: (1) greensand and anthracite, (2) standard sand and anthracite, and (3) manganese dioxide.

8. Burnsville Becomes First Metro System With On-Site Hypochlorite Generation 7/24/2018

   When Linda Mullen took over as water superintendent in Burnsville in 2007, the city was in the process of adding surface‐water treatment to its existing plant. Burnsville began purchasing water from the nearby Kraemer Mining and Materials quarry, both to supplement its supply and to help the quarry meet discharge permits.

9. Drinking Water Disinfection In A New Hampshire Town 4/14/2024

   The town of Hillsborough, NH chose Atlantium's HOD UV system to disinfect their drinking water due to its low disinfection by-products and reliable virus inactivation. Atlantium's UV technology is validated and offers stable and efficient water treatment solutions.

10. The Payoff From Improved Chemical Dilution 7/1/2021

    Chemical dilution systems play a critical role in many municipal and industrial water treatment systems. However, older technology tends to be less reliable and accurate while being a drain on resources, whereas a more advanced solution can significantly improve performance and generate labor savings.
