Wastewater Application Notes

51. Advances In Paper-Based Devices For Water Quality Analysis 2/22/2017

    Water quality test strips have been around for decades. They are usually constructed from a porous media, including different types of paper, and undergo a color change when dipped into water containing the analyte of interest. These test strips have seen application in swimming pools, aquariums, hot tubs, remediation sites, and other commercial/environmental areas.

52. 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.

53. 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.

54. Determination Of Polar Pesticide Residues In Food Of Plant Origin, By And Automate QuPPe Solution 9/29/2014

    The QuEChERS (Quick-Easy-Cheap-Effective-Rugged-Safe) sample extraction method was developed for the determination of pesticide residues in agricultural commodities.

55. Improved Efficiencies In TOC Wastewater Analysis For Standard Method 5310B And EPA Method 415 10/16/2014
    Total organic carbon (TOC) measurement is of vital importance to the operation of water treatment due to organic compounds comprising a large group of water pollutants. TOC has been around for many years, and although it is a relatively simple analysis in theory, operational efficiency is paramount.
56. 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.

57. Best Practices In Moist And Wet Gas Flow 12/20/2021

    The Wet Gas MASSter sensor is for use in applications that have a high level of moisture or condensation present in the gas flow stream that cannot otherwise be removed.

58. 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

59. Magnetic Flow Meters Improve Recycling Of Gas Well-Produced Water 11/26/2019

    As old gas & oil fields play out, newer methods must be used to extract resources from areas where they are locked in layers of shale. One current technique is known as “fraccing,” in which high pressure water is pumped into the well shaft to “fracture” the rock layers, allowing more natural gas to escape and be collected. However, this technique poses a number of environmental problems, including contamination of water with hydrocarbons, solid particulates, and scale producing ions — making it unsuitable for reuse.

60. Dissolved Oxygen Measurement In Wastewater Treatment 11/11/2013

    A wastewater treatment plant separates solids from the liquid, and consists of two basic stages: primary treatment and secondary treatment.
