51. Ultrafiltration vs. Microfiltration 11/8/2019

    Which process should you choose for your application?

52. Common Problems Of Ultrafiltration System Operations 10/31/2019

    One facet of technological advancement is attempting to mitigate the more glaring issues that consistently crop up due to the nature of a system process. Of course, even with decades of improvement nothing is infallible. In this article, we will discuss the common issues that can occur using UF filtration systems.

53. How To Choose A UF Water Treatment System For Your Facility 10/23/2019

    Ultrafiltration (UF) water treatment systems have many possible combinations between the types of membrane configurations, flow patterns, aeration, and submergence. Each design consideration for a UF system has its own benefits that would work for a particular industrial/commercial application, and disadvantages that would work against it.

54. Water Treatment Filter Monitoring 10/22/2019

    A municipal water utility needed to improve sand filter consistency and boost performance of its overall fleet of filters in its water treatment plant. To do this, it needed to identify and monitor for poor filter performance while prioritizing filter maintenance.

55. Seawater Reverse Osmosis Plant Design: Important Criteria To Consider 9/30/2019

    When designing anything, whether it be a machine, a program, or a process, there are always a few key factors to consider that can determine the validity of the design. Over the past decade, water and wastewater treatment methods have been focused on developing solutions for the water scarcity epidemic with additional emphasis on sustainability. Seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) plant design requires careful analysis with several criteria to consider in the design of these systems.

56. Pros And Cons Of Seawater Desalination Using RO For Drinking Water 8/29/2019

    Using seawater desalination RO treatment systems, coastal communities and island nations can achieve clean and safe water. So why do some countries utilize this advanced treatment technology, while others do not?

57. Reconditioned And Rehabbed Filters Succeed At Large Treatment Plant 6/14/2019

    A large treatment plant includes several treatment processes that contribute to providing quality recycled water pursuant to the state of California Title 22 regulations. Major treatment processes include raw wastewater pumping, preliminary treatment, primary treatment, secondary treatment, tertiary treatment with Parkson DynaSand® filters, and disinfection.

58. Aqua MultiBore® C-Series Ceramic Membrane System Solves Disinfection By-Product (DPB) Challenge At Butte-Silver Bow, Montana 4/15/2019

    The Basin Creek Reservoir in Butte, MT served its community with pristine water from both sides of the Continental Divide for nearly 100 years. In 2010, a pine beetle infestation killed most of the trees surrounding the reservoir, many of which fell into the water, increasing the natural organic matter (NOM) level.

59. Design And Care Of Reverse Osmosis Systems, Part 3: Operation And Monitoring 2/5/2019

    Reverse osmosis (RO) systems offer power plant owners and operators a reliable and well-proven water treatment solution. However, designing and caring for an RO system requires a thorough understanding of a plant’s water supply and the technology’s capabilities. The final article of this three-part series will address RO system operation and maintenance best practices.

60. Is A Containerized Treatment System Right For You? 1/24/2019

    As industrial facilities continually look for ways to reduce capital costs and decrease installation timelines associated with water treatment and other systems, the practice of containerizing equipment has become more prevalent. A containerized system offers many benefits of lower costs than comparable field erected buildings, faster timelines, and lower field installation requirements.
