  1. Multi-Contaminant Removal With Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) In Drinking Water Filtration 4/10/2025

    Learn why the U.S. EPA has recognized granular activated carbon (GAC) as a best available technology (BAT) for a wide range of substances within the same system.

  2. Constant vs. Proportional Diffusivity In RSSCT: Choosing The Right Model For GAC Performance Testing 9/9/2025

    When designing adsorption systems for PFAS removal, utilities and engineers increasingly rely on RSSCTs (Rapid Small-Scale Column Tests) to compare the performance of granular activated carbon (GAC) or other sorbents. One often overlooked yet critical assumption in RSSCT modeling is the choice between constant diffusivity and proportional diffusivity. Though both approaches are valid, selecting the right model can significantly impact how well bench-scale results translate to full-scale systems.

  3. Exosome Isolation By TFF And Size Exclusion Chromatography 3/6/2024

    Here, we demonstrate a scalable workflow for the isolation of exosomes that combines tangential flow filtration for the concentration of exosomes followed by gentle size exclusion chromatography.

  4. Introducing AquaKnight™: Revolutionizing Water Filtration For A Cleaner And Safer Tomorrow 4/22/2024

    In a world where access to clean and safe water is increasingly vital, AquaKnight emerges as the steadfast guardian of clean drinking water in the ongoing battle against PFAS.

  5. How Instrumentation Powers The Circular Water Economy 3/6/2024

    The Circular Water Economy is built on the so-called six Rs: "Reduce," "Reuse," "Recycle," "Reclaim," "Recover," and "Restore". The six elements represent different strategies aimed at sustainable water management and conservation.  

  6. Taking The Lead On Ditching Lead 11/5/2025

    AWWA C800, Underground Service Line Valves and Fittings, was built around the use of one brass alloy, C83600, also known as leaded red brass, favored for its manufacturability and low cost. Over the last two decades, the waterworks industry has transitioned to brass alloys that meet the definition of lead-free for most surfaces contacting potable water.

  7. A Year Of Reflection And Preparation 1/3/2025

    The Trial Master File (TMF) landscape in 2025 will require companies to stay attuned to the evolving ICH E6(R3) guidelines and the full implementation of the CTIS.

  8. Martin County Saves Millions With leadCAST's Automated Workflows And Statistical Analysis To Tackle LCRR 5/23/2025

    With the LCRR deadline fast approaching and over 59% of its service lines unverified, Martin County recognized the significant work ahead in preparing to meet the LCRR requirements. The county needed to establish a clear strategy for its compliance program, and to support this effort, it needed an engineering consulting partner with extensive expertise in LCRR.

  9. How Remote Water Quality Monitoring Improves Crisis Response 3/27/2024

    Remote water quality monitoring, a key component to effective crisis response, can mitigate the risk of contaminated source water or distributed water reaching consumers.

  10. PFAS Treatment Technologies For Water Utilities And PFAS-Contaminated Sites 11/18/2025

    Discover how PFAS treatment technologies can provide safer drinking water and limit the amount of PFAS in the environment.
