Drinking Water Case Studies and White Papers

  1. Keys To A Successful AMI Rollout 3/16/2020

    With its ability to improve customer service, reduce costs and boost visibility into water distribution systems, AMI has rapidly become a worthwhile investment. The ability to capture and analyze vast amounts of actionable data is at the core of AMI.

  2. Monitoring WTP Ozone Use With Maximum Cost-Efficiency 4/29/2019

    The value of ozone as a disinfection agent is well understood in water treatment plants (WTPs). So too, is its cost. Getting maximum value from an ozone investment requires accurate measurement to assure proper disinfection levels without wasteful overuse of the precious gas. Here are multiple ways thermal dispersion mass flow meters deliver precise readings with lower installation and maintenance costs.

  3. Next-Gen Water Monitoring: Autonomous And Real-Time Results 2/9/2021

    Municipal, commercial, and industrial water users all face a common issue — how to monitor the quality of the water they use, dispose of, or distribute in a timely, cost-effective manner.

  4. AMERICAN Ductile Iron Pipe Used In Northwest Missouri's New Regional Water Authority 5/16/2025

    What began as a lofty idea will soon become a reality as a new regional water authority is established in Northwest Missouri. The Great Northwest Wholesale Water Commission will supply water to more than 11,000 people in rural areas of Cameron and Maysville, Missouri, with the capability to expand to other communities in the future.

  5. Making Municipal Water Supply Reliable, Economical, And Sustainable 3/1/2016

    A global scarcity of resources is a compelling reason for businesses and people to use raw materials more responsibly. Modern municipal water supply concepts must therefore not only consider such aspects as the structural development of the region and the population’s quality of life, but must also integrate the sustainable use of water in their policy planning.

  6. How pH Standards Impact The Accuracy Of Water Quality Measurements 3/4/2020

    When it comes to pH measurement in water and wastewater treatment, there are two focal points for the word ‘standard’ — one is a compliance-related state or federal water quality specification; the other is a specific fluid used as a calibration reference point to ensure pH instrumentation accuracy. Here is why both are important and how they affect the best pH measurement outcomes in both areas.

  7. Defending Against Saltwater Intrusion 7/16/2019

    Are “ghost forests” a sign of things to come? Rising sea levels and superstorm tidal surges are already impacting coastal areas, with rising salinity levels affecting some drinking water sources. Coastal water utilities are not the only ones that have to worry about salinity, however, as high concentrations of winter storm road treatments, gas drilling, and mining can also generate elevated salinity levels in surface water sources.

  8. 12 Steps To Precise pH Measurement 4/18/2013

    You want good pH data.  Who doesn’t?  You deserve good data, but for good pH data you need to calibrate.  You need to calibrate well and calibrate often. By Lyndsey McDermand

  9. Winning Strategies For Smart Cities, Smart Water, And Water Reuse 9/16/2019

    Every city facing infrastructure or operational challenges or concerns about maintaining quality of life in the face of population growth or a changing environment has benefits to gain from a unified smart-city approach. Here are some concepts for promoting understanding and acceptance among utility and government decision-makers, plus several examples of benefits already being garnered by smart cities large and small.

  10. Local Support Saves Time And Money 2/1/2016

    At a water treatment plant that provides drinking water for distribution to a large area of customers, a contractor decided to switch to SITRANS FM MAG 5100W flowmeters. A local representative saved a the contractor time and money by recognizing the need for the magmeter to be isolated from the piping protection before startup, which also saved the customer from added downtime.
