Wastewater Application Notes

31. 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

32. 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.

33. 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.

34. Remote Monitoring And Maintenance Through Digitalization 3/17/2020

    Siemens offers to our customers the ability to make both process measurements, and to remotely monitor the activity and health of instrumentation, whether you have a SCADA, PLC or DCS system, or not. By utilizing Siemens’ ability to offer unparalleled flow, level, pressure, temperature, and weight measurement we can provide a broad range of process measurements and offer unequaled monitoring of the health and performance of those products.

35. 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.

36. 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.
