Drinking Water Case Studies and White Papers

  1. Integrating MBRs Into Mixed-Use Developments 12/11/2025

    Diverse wastewater flows from mixed-use projects strain conventional systems. Learn how advanced biological treatment stabilizes unpredictable loads, ensures compliance, and delivers high-quality water suitable for reuse.

  2. Leveraging AMI For The Low Voltage Landscape 8/15/2022

    In this white paper, explore ways that utilities are prioritizing grid management use cases and challenges that utilities face in capturing the full value of AMI data. 

  3. Remote Monitoring Helps Growers, Water Districts Do Their Jobs 1/16/2019

    Propeller flow meters have long been an important tool for agricultural irrigation management. As water scarcity and resource management have become increasingly critical, getting the most timely, accurate readings available from those meters is becoming more important than ever. Here is how growers and water conservation districts (WCDs) are each getting the best of both worlds for their own purposes.

  4. How To Get Accurate Flow Measurements Despite Flow Disturbers 9/17/2018

    Flow meter accuracy is critical for process control but can be hampered by upstream and downstream flow disturbers. This problem may be addressed during the design process, though in some circumstances it’s impossible to eliminate disturbers.

  5. The Right Choice For Environmentally Friendly Pipe Installation 6/30/2014

    Like several of its counterparts in Florida, Pasco County is a name frequently repeated in the news when it comes to growth.

  6. Community-Driven Algal Monitoring: Empowering Local Stewards 7/4/2025

    As algal blooms become more frequent and severe due to nutrient pollution and climate change, community-driven monitoring efforts are playing a vital role in safeguarding water quality and ecosystem health. Local stewards—citizens, educators, nonprofit groups, and tribal communities—are increasingly stepping up to fill critical data gaps, improve early detection, and advocate for more responsive environmental management. 

  7. A Perilous Choice: COVID Patients Or Safe Drinking Water? 4/20/2022

    In August 2021, as Florida's hospitals were filling up with COVID-19 patients, the mayor of Orlando pleaded with local residents to reduce water use to free up liquid oxygen to provide life support for victims of the pandemic.

  8. Operational And Maintenance Benefits Of Portable Flow Instruments 7/16/2018

    Accurate flow measurement is critical for process control and regulatory compliance. Flow meters are essential instruments for water and wastewater facilities, installed at multiple locations throughout entire systems. For the most part, these are permanent installations. However, portable flow instruments prove beneficial in certain situations.

  9. Insertion Valves Eliminate System Shutdown 9/1/2017

    Winchester Municipal Utilities (WMU) faced challenges regarding two separate sections of town. The lines required maintenance due to old inoperable inline valves that needed to be replaced. The challenge - replacing these valves using a procedure that eliminated the shutdown of the water lines that service hundreds of homes and businesses.

  10. Advantages Of Thermal Dispersion Switches For Pump Protection 7/1/2014

    Thermal dispersion switches use similar principles as thermal mass flow meters. Fluid carries heat away from the probe tip reducing the temperature difference between a heated resistance temperature detector (RTD) and a reference RTD.
