Philadelphia is placing a major bet on mussels for improving water quality in the Delaware River basin.
Sustainable, biological filters called slow sand filters have been used to filter drinking water since the 1800s. They don’t use any chemicals, create no waste and use very little energy. However, technologies that meet modern requirements for control, monitoring and time-efficiency have become popular, while biological water treatment has been less favoured, since little has been understood about how it works.
Xylem Inc., a global water technology leader, recently announced that its ozone equipment has been selected to support the City of Grand Forks in developing a new regional water treatment plant.
LACROIX Sofrel, a company with over 40 years' of expertise in the remote management of water and energy networks, is launching its new range of data loggers: SOFREL LX
H2O Innovation Inc. (“H2O Innovation” or the “Corporation”) is proud to announce it was awarded five (5) new water and wastewater projects in North America.
The Bureau of Reclamation is launching a new prize competition that is seeking improved methods to sample and monitor for pathogens, specifically viruses, in order to help with indirect and direct reuse of wastewater.
In a first of its kind, the Smart Water Networks Forum (SWAN) has launched the SWAN Asia-Pacific Alliance, which will be free to join in its first year. The APAC Alliance, which includes progressive utilities and leading solution providers, seeks to advance the use of “smart”, data-driven water and wastewater solutions across the fast-growing region.
Mechanical stress on plastic piping systems is one of the leading causes of premature leaks. Typical pipe clamp products often create unintended fixed points throughout piping systems that permanently lock in stress.
The world’s freshwater resources are in short supply. According to the United Nations, water scarcity affects an estimated 1.9 billion people and 2.1 billion people live with drinking water services that are not safely managed.
Despite the years that have passed with seawater desalination gaining popularity, it is still not an alternative to traditional freshwater procuring methods. It seems rather unfair that mankind stands in front of a very big payload of water but cannot use it for their benefit.
