Drinking Water Treatment Case Studies and White Papers

  1. Legionella And The Buildings You Don't Control: Monitoring Hot-Water And Premise Sections 7/27/2026

    Premise plumbing and hot-water systems are vulnerable to rapid residual decay and biological growth. Continuous, flow-independent monitoring delivers minute-by-minute tracking in stagnant, high-risk zones, helping operators verify disinfection and maintain safety before issues arise.

  2. 2,080 Hours: What Five Sensors Gave Back To One Utility 7/24/2026

    Routine sensor maintenance silently drains utility workforce capacity through constant recalibration, reagent refills, and travel time. Transitioning to low-maintenance monitoring technology reclaims thousands of operator hours, allowing short-handed crews to focus on vital system infrastructure priorities.

  3. Data Centers Are Coming For Your Water. Your Meters And Analyzers Are Your Defense. 7/24/2026

    Rapid industrial expansion and data center growth strain municipal water supplies. Eliminating continuous analyzer sample waste and targeting line flushing recovers treated water, strengthening local supply security and demonstrating responsible resource management.

  4. 70,000 Gallons Per Sensor: The Water You're Treating Just To Throw Away 7/24/2026

    Continuous sample-to-waste streams can dump roughly 70,000 gallons of treated water per monitoring location. Eliminating flow-dependent sampling preserves finished water, reduces non-revenue losses, and recovers embedded energy and chemical treatment expenses across distribution networks.

  5. Six Billion Gallons Down The Drain, Literally 7/24/2026

    Diverting continuous sample streams to waste drains billions of gallons of fully treated water annually. Adopting in-line, waste-free measurement methods preserves finished supply, lowers embedded production costs, and eliminates unnecessary non-revenue water loss across distribution networks.

  6. The Cheapest Capital You'll Deploy This Year Is The Sensor That Doesn't Break 7/24/2026

    A growing infrastructure funding gap requires utilities to maximize every capital dollar. Relying on continuous, trustworthy monitoring data allows systems to shift away from age-based asset replacement and target maintenance precisely where water quality degrades.

  7. Every Bad Chlorine Reading Costs You Twice 7/24/2026

    Inaccurate residual readings force water treatment facilities to overdose expensive chemicals or risk regulatory non-compliance. Maintaining measurement accuracy across fluctuating water conditions eliminates costly safety margins and lowers daily chemical expenses.

  8. Precision Engineering For Clean Water 7/23/2026

    On The Water Online Show, Shaun Sharrett, Vice President of Sales at Swan Analytical, examines how continuous online monitoring differs fundamentally from traditional, sporadic testing methods.

  9. The Swarm Effect: Monitoring The Pipe, Not Just The Plant 7/22/2026

    Conventional distribution monitoring relies on sparse plant-level data, forcing utilities to infer water quality across wide piping networks. Dense, multi-point sensing delivers real-time visibility, allowing operators to target flushing, isolate contamination, and optimize distribution operations.

  10. The Water Online Show: Understanding The Limit Of Detection 7/22/2026

    In this episode of The Water Online Show, host Travis Kennedy is joined by Mike Sadar of Lovibond to demystify two critical specifications often listed on instrument spec sheets: Limit of Detection (LOD) and Limit of Quantification (LOQ).
