Wastewater Application Notes

  1. Monitoring IWW Effluents With FP 360 sc Oil-In-Water Sensor 5/14/2024

    This application note explores a test which demonstrated significant improvements in Oil-in-Water monitoring of industrial wastewater in comparison to the weekly grab sample analysis method.

  2. Sink Or Swim: A Comparison Of Submersible And Surface Mixers For Anoxic And Anaerobic Tank Mixing 9/18/2017

    With increasing requirements for enhanced nutrient removal, many wastewater plants are adding anoxic and/or anaerobic tanks in their secondary treatment systems. There are multiple options for enhanced nutrient removal including, but not limited to, the A2O (Anaerobic, Anoxic, Aerobic) process, the UCT or MUCT (Modified University of Cape Town) process and the Bardenpho process.

  3. Removal Of PFCs With Activated Carbon 12/30/2013

    In recent years, various perflorinated chemicals (PFCs) have come under increasing scrutiny due to their presence in the environment, in animals, and in human blood samples. There are two major classes of PFCs: perfluoroalkyl sulfonates such as perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) and long chain perfluoroalkyl carboxylates such as perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA).

  4. Sewage Lift Station Pumping System 6/20/2019

    Lack of sufficient straight pipe run made it impossible to successfully apply the preferred magnetic flow meter (magmeter) to accurately measure the flow of raw sewage.

  5. Achieving A Delicate Balance To Maintain RO Membranes 7/8/2024

    This application note explores the importance of maintaining a delicate balance in reverse osmosis systems to protect RO membranes.

  6. Flow And Concentration Measurement For Automated Sludge Thickening 9/19/2022

    Learn how a wastewater treatment plant in eastern Switzerland relies on the targeted use of flocculants to prevent sludge washout. 

  7. Enhancing Clean-In-Place (CIP) Systems With Pulsafeeder's NextStep Pump Technology 1/15/2026

    Clean-in-Place (CIP) systems are critical for industries where hygiene and contamination control are mandatory—such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and specialty chemical manufacturing. These systems automate cleaning through validated, programmed steps that ensure compliance with stringent safety and quality standards. This application note explores the challenges of CIP operations and demonstrates how Pulsafeeder’s NextStep pump technology addresses these challenges with precision, reliability, and cost efficiency.

  8. TOC Monitoring In Process Return Condensate 4/23/2021

    Industrial power plants or co-generation power plants utilize steam for industrial purposes other than power production.

  9. Take Control Of Your Water Distribution Network With Digitalization And Remote Monitoring 5/19/2022

    Any process plant constantly generates a high volume of status data. Today, this data can be extracted from the plant, stored, analyzed, and prepared to meet operator needs and lower marginal costs.

  10. Vacuum Sewer Truck: Optimize Cleaning Performance With The Right Accessories 1/31/2022

    Selecting the correct accessories will maximize cleaning while minimizing water use, tank refills, labor, and headaches.
