Drinking Water Case Studies and White Papers

  1. Groundwater Replenishment System - Orange County, California 6/15/2009

    The full-scale advanced treatment system takes filtered secondary effluent from the neighboring OCSD treatment plant and converts it to water that exceeds all drinking water quality standards.

  2. Membrane Filtration Water Treatment Plant Meets Hotel Complex's Needs 10/23/2012

    The Little America West Hotel complex located near the town of Granger, Wyoming, used an outdated surface water treatment plant that provided poor quality water during storm events.

  3. Office Of Naval Research Contract Leads To New Chlorine Sensor Technology 11/19/2025

    Developed from U.S. Office of Naval Research requirements, this multiparameter chlorine sensor offers extended maintenance-free operation, flow-independence, and automatic compensation for reliable, in-pipe monitoring.

  4. 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.

  5. EPA Researchers Study What Causes Agricultural Nutrients To Move Into Waterbodies 12/14/2021

    Phosphorus and nitrogen are essential nutrients to people, animals, and plant growth. They occur naturally in the environment at low levels; however, they can also occur in high levels when introduced through sources like agriculture. When excess nitrogen and phosphorous used in fertilizers and manure seep from agricultural fields into watersheds, they can impact larger waterbodies by increasing algae growth. This can result in harmful algal blooms, which produce toxins that can negatively impact drinking water sources, aquatic species, and recreational water activities. 

  6. 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”.

  7. Ultrasonic Metering For Small Water Meter Applications 9/19/2013

    For many years, ultrasonic metering has been utilized for large scale liquid and gas measurement. However, it is a relatively new technology for small meter applications — particularly those designed for potable water.

  8. QUA UF Membranes Provide Pretreatment for Seawater Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) System 12/1/2015

    Hinduja National Power Corporation Ltd. (HNPCL) constructed a 1040 MW coal fired power plant at Vishakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, India. The power generated from the plant is intended to supply to Andhra Pradesh, as well as to other states through interstate transmission system.

  9. Navigating Flow Measurement Choices In Water Treatment: A Guide To Optimal Decision-Making 5/2/2025

    In today’s economic climate, finding cost-saving opportunities has become crucial for the survival of companies across various sectors, including water and wastewater management. Inefficiencies in processes or measurement equipment can lead to significant resource and revenue losses.

  10. ORP And pH — What You Don't Know Can Hurt You 11/15/2016

    When I look back at 2016 one of the most significant trends I observed was the growing acceptance of ORP measurements, especially for monitoring disinfection. With one caveat, the ORP value measured in a solution provides an unambiguous measure of the disinfection efficacy.
