Drinking Water Treatment Case Studies and White Papers

  1. Inside The Blue-White Factory 1/28/2026

    Take a quick tour of the Blue-White factory in Huntington Beach, California, where skilled employees are busy building chemical dosing pumps, complete metering systems and flow measurement equipment.

  2. Engineering Resilience In Water Supply: How Ozone-Based Oxidation Supports DC Water's Pure Water DC Vision 1/21/2026

    Securing urban water futures requires shifting toward resilient, multi-source supplies. Advanced oxidation provides a critical barrier against emerging contaminants, enhancing treatment efficiency and ensuring long-term reliability without chemical residuals. Explore the foundations of engineering a decentralized, drought-proof water supply.

  3. Setting Global Standards: Inside North America's Only Full-Scale UV Disinfection Validation Facility 1/15/2026
    Portland's industry-leading facility reaches 100 reactor validations in 23 years.
  4. Why Haven't Field Tests For Lead In Water Gone Mainstream? 1/15/2026
    Given the maturation of sensor technology, the scientific and operational hurdles to portable lead analysis are somewhat surprising — but surmountable.
  5. Understanding The Limit Of Detection 1/7/2026

    Accurate low-level turbidity monitoring requires a deep understanding of detection limits and the variables affecting measurement sensitivity. Learn how refined laboratory techniques and standardized spiking protocols ensure precision in demanding water treatment applications.

  6. Aries Arsenic Reduction 1/7/2026

    Arsenic has no smell, taste, or color when dissolved in water even in high concentrations. It is a potential concern to those who live in areas with high natural deposits of arsenic, receive runoff from orchards, or from glass and electronic production waste. Long-term exposure to arsenic can cause a number of harmful effects on the human body including cancer, skin lesions, cardiovascular disease and diabetes, among others.

  7. The Laser Advantage 1/7/2026

    High-resolution laser technology detects microscopic particles and subtle filtration breaches that traditional systems miss. By monitoring signal fluctuations and utilizing concentrated light sources, operators can achieve superior effluent accuracy and optimize filter run performance.

  8. Electrocoagulation Unlocked 1/2/2026

    Despite electrocoagulation's demonstrated effectiveness, developing a reliable, low maintenance reactor with sufficient water processing volume has proven to be a significant engineering challenge.

  9. Custom Tank Designs That Actively Manage PFAS Mass Transfer Zone (MTZ) — And Why It Matters More Than Ever 12/23/2025

    As utilities prepare for the pending 4-ppt PFAS drinking water MCL, many are discovering that legacy lead/lag designs—workhorses for decades when treating contaminants in the ppm and ppb range—simply are not optimized for the parts per trillion-level (ppt) precision PFAS demands.

  10. Success Roadmap For Advanced Metering Infrastructure Installations 12/11/2025

    For a water utility of any size to function properly, effective meter reading is a vital aspect of day-to-day operations. Meter reading supports both ends of the transaction, ensuring that water is being properly delivered, accounted for and billed each month.
