Wastewater Application Notes

  1. Analysis Of Pesticide Residue In Spinach Using The AutoMate-Q40 An Automated QuEChERS Solution 10/16/2014

    QuEChERS is a Quick-Easy-Cheap-Effective-Rugged-Safe extraction method that has been developed for the determination of pesticide residues in agricultural commodities.

  2. 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.

  3. FLEX-TEND® Flexible Expansion Joints, Features And Specifications 12/3/2020

    FLEX-TEND® flexible expansion joints are designed to protect structures and pipelines from differential movement whether this movement is earthquake induced or the gradual motion of soil subsidence. This bulletin offers a concise listing and discussion of the important features and materials of the double and single ball assemblies.

  4. Biogas Measurement From Wastewater To Power Plant 12/13/2021

    Stockholm water company produces biogas from their wastewater facility which feeds Scandinavian Biogas for energy production. As they need to accurately meter what they sell to the energy facility they used a project contractor firm to engineer and define the best solution for the project.

  5. 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.

  6. VFD Energy Savings For Pumping Applications 4/6/2017

    In the early days of variable frequency drive (VFD) technology, the typical application was in process control for manufacturing synthetic fiber, steel bars, and aluminum foil.

  7. Ultrasonic Level Measurement In Water And Wastewater Plants 5/19/2016

    Radar technology is often viewed as the “best” method of level measurement, but this isn’t necessarily true in the water industry.

  8. LLT100 Laser Level Measurement In Water And Wastewater 3/12/2020

    In the water and wastewater market segment, the LLT100 laser level transmitter provides an efficient way to measure levels of liquids.

  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. 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
