Drinking Water Case Studies and White Papers

41. EPA Scientists Test Non-Targeted Analysis Methods Using Drinking Water Filters 5/19/2021

    Today, researchers can rapidly search for thousands of never-before studied chemical compounds in a wide variety of environmental, residential, and biological media. This approach is called “non-targeted analysis” (NTA). It differs from targeted analysis because researchers do not have to know what specific chemical they are looking for in a sample. They can use high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) to rapidly identify many of the chemicals present in a sample. The HRMS measures the accurate mass of molecules and can find chemicals that would have gone unnoticed before. This approach is beneficial not just to researchers, but to States, tribes, and local communities who might want to know more about chemical exposure.

42. Retrofit Significantly Reduces Backwash Cycle Interval, Duration And Water Use For Georgia Utility 5/1/2017

    A Leopold filter system helped save the North Columbus Resource Facility approximately 1,000,000 gallons of water per day that was previously used for backwash purposes.

43. How Ultrasonic Clamp-On Meters Deliver Savings To Users 4/26/2022

    Ultrasonic clamp-on meters offer a cost-effective alternative to traditional electromagnetic meters (also called mag meters) and other metering technologies for non-billing applications.

44. Precision Accuracy Flow Measurement Through Ultra Mag Implementation 7/20/2022

    Explore why he Hach Ultra Mag is a fan favorite in numerous industries such as municipal water and wastewater, amongst others.

45. Mountain Resort City Reduces Water Loss By 10 Percent By Deploying Intelligent Leak Detection And Pressure Monitoring Solution 12/1/2020

    Park City turned to Xylem to deploy their intelligent sensor hardware and monitoring solutions as part of a condition assessment program and to reduce non-revenue water.

46. Installation Of Insta-Valve 250 Keeps Hospital Operational 5/18/2020

    The Insta-Valve 250 provided targeted shutdown to allow proactive maintenance while ensuring a nearby hospital remained fully operational.

47. Not All Differential Pressure Meters Are Created Equal 10/21/2019

    Due to the dynamics of liquids and gases flowing through elbows, valves, pumps, and other pipeline structures, every flow-meter methodology has its own design limitations. Unlike Venturi meters, pitot tubes, orifice plates, and other devices, V-Cone meters provide highly accurate and reliable readings with minimal straight-pipe length restrictions and virtually no maintenance, in pipe sizes up to 120”.

48. Advantages Of Using Ozone And Biologically Active Filtration For Potable Reuse 7/12/2024

    Understanding how ozonation and biologically active filtration (O3-BAF) systems work and their benefits in reuse can help water authorities meet cost, treatment, and sustainability goals.

49. Asset Management And The Age Of Infrastructure 10/20/2023

    Water is our most precious resource but with some systems dating back a hundred years or more in the United States, our water infrastructure is in dire need of repair.

50. High-Precision Non-Invasive Temperature Measurement 6/1/2021

    This white paper presents ABB’s new TSP341-N temperature sensor for non-invasive temperature measurement and provides examples for applications and accuracies that can be achieved. The present Edition II of the whitepaper additionally presents the results of a direct comparison of non-invasive temperature measurements with classic measurements in a measuring medium, achieved in realistic conditions. These results emphasize the outstanding suitability of the device for multiple applications.
