Wastewater Application Notes

1. Environmental Applications Of The Agilent 1290 Infinity UHPLC: The Evolution Of Chromatography 2/6/2011
   This application note presents examples of the use of UHPLC (ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography) for environmental applications using the new Agilent 1290 Infinity LC. By E. Michael Thurman and Imma Ferrer Center for Environmental Mass Spectrometry Department of Environmental Engineering University of Colorado Boulder, CO, USA
2. Optimizing Brine Flow In A Geothermal Power Plant 1/27/2022

   Different flow meter technologies were used in this geothermal power plant to monitor and measure brine. However, these traditional technologies failed. That’s where Panametrics PT900 Portable Ultrasonic Flowmeter was able to help.

3. 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.

4. Flow Monitoring In The Partially Filled Discharge Of A Rainwater Retention Basin 9/19/2022

   Read about managing water discharge into a mixed water drainage system, electromagnetic flow measurement of water loads, and automated discharge control by way of a structure with overflow. 

5. Determination Of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons In Seafood 4/20/2015

   Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a large group of organic compounds found naturally in the environment. PAHs are monitored by the US Environmental Protection Agency due to their carcinogenic characteristics.

6. NEOSEP® Membrane Bioreactor System Simplifies 'Fundamental Necessities' Of MBR 1/17/2014

   The NEOSEP® MBR system features Kruger’s uniquely designed K-120C and K-240C flat sheet membrane modules.  The modules offer several innovative design features that enhance ease of installation, operation and maintenance.  This includes an integrated central lifting eye, offering an incredibly well balanced module that makes installation and retrieval a simple and stress-free process.

7. 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.

8. AquaSBR Sequencing Batch Reactor: Food And Beverage Industry 12/6/2023

   This application note explores Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) systems that have been installed worldwide in a variety of applications, ranging from a few gallons per minute (GPM) to thousands of GPM.

9. Recording & Control: Online Data Recording And Control In Anaerobic Digestion Processes 11/1/2019

   Solids present in wastewater need to be safely and comprehensively treated and removed. This means not only removing toxic compounds, including both organic and inorganic materials such as heavy metals, but also eliminating any harmful bacteria present in the solids.

10. Aerated Biological Nitrogen Removal 7/16/2013

    Excess ammonia in receiving waters causes algal blooms that decrease oxygen levels. For this reason, many wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) must limit ammonia in discharge. Mike Rousey, Hach Company
