Wastewater Application Notes

  1. Panametrics' Technology Proves Key In Supporting Serbia's Flood Prevention Strategy 2/1/2024

    A water management company in Serbia used Panametrics' ultrasonic flow meter technology for stormwater management, ensuring reliable measurement and accuracy in challenging conditions. The technology allowed for live monitoring of water transfer and reduced the risk of flooding.

  2. Ultrasonic Flow Meters Improve Biogas Measurements 9/20/2016

    As interest in biogas grows, more attention is being paid to measuring biogas flow, which has long been a problem area in process measuring technology.

  3. Application Bulletin: Reverse Osmosis 3/19/2008

    Osmosis is the phenomenon of lower dissolved solids in water passing through a semi-permeable membrane into higher dissolved solids water until a near equilibrium is reached

  4. Instruments For Environmental Applications 10/29/2021

    Keeping the water in our lakes, rivers, and streams clean requires monitoring of water quality at many points. Over the years ever increasing environmental concerns and regulations have heightened the need for increased diligence and tighter restrictions on wastewater quality.

  5. Reduce SBR Maintenance Costs With Jet Aeration 6/16/2017

    Aeration has been a primary method for treating municipal and industrial wastewater for over a century. It is a natural way to reduce biological oxygen demand (BOD) and control odors. In the SBR process, aeration helps foster nitrification by bubbling air through the mixture of wastewater and activated sludge, encouraging the multiplication of aerobic microbes which consume nutrients and convert ammonia into nitrites and nitrates.

  6. Harmonics Reduction Methods 4/17/2017

    There are several basic methods for reducing harmonic voltage and current distortion from nonlinear distribution loads such as adjustable frequency drives (AFDs). Following is a description of each method, along with each method’s advantages and disadvantages.

  7. Flexible Expansion Joints Provide Protection For Pipelines Subject To Subtle Or Sudden Movement 12/7/2020

    Flex-Tend flexible expansion joints have a proven record of providing protection for pipelines subject to subtle or sudden movement. As with all products used in the water and wastewater industry, protection is optimized with the selection of the proper assembly incorporated into a sound design. This paper is intended to provide assistance in both of these areas.

  8. Pile Cloth Media Filtration Removes 97% Of Microplastics From Wastewater 12/6/2023

    Learn about filtering microplastics from industrial wastewater prior to discharge, and how this is one way to effectively reduce the volume of this waste material from entering our surface water.

  9. 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.

  10. Determination Of Hexanal In Foods Utilizing Dynamic Headspace 4/9/2015

    Hexanal is one of many well-documented aromatic components that contribute to flavor and aroma in common consumer food products containing omega-6 fatty acids. Hexanal content is also used to measure the oxidative status of foods rich in omega-6 fatty acids.
