Wastewater Application Notes

51. 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.

52. The Active Control Program For Advanced UV Oxidation 12/1/2025

    This application note will explore how active control programs lower operational costs of compliant contaminant removal. 

53. 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.

54. Scrubber Application 1/27/2022

    This customer supplies district heating and electricity for the region of Sønderborg. For one of their waste applications a MAG meter failed within 6 months, and was successfully replaced with a Panametrics Aquatrans AT600.

55. 'TOTEX' Is Key When Purchasing Instrumentation 4/29/2021

    There’s a lot to be considered in the price tag of an ultrasonic instrument. Derek Moore from Siemens explains how the historical way of thinking only of capital costs needs to change to the more holistic approach of total expenditures.

56. Pile Cloth Media Filtration For Food Processing 12/6/2023

    Read about the cloth media filter installations that have been operating in food and beverage wastewater plants for over 25 years.

57. Waste Technologies Transform Problems To Profit 9/8/2015

    Anaerobic digestion processes that radically improve the quality of wastewater while delivering green energy extracted from biological waste streams are emerging as a profitable way for agricultural and food processing industries cope with the twin impact of drought and pollution challenges.

58. 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.

59. Optimizing pH Control In Biomanufacturing With Pulsafeeder NextStep® Pump 1/15/2026

    Precise pH control is critical in biomanufacturing processes to ensure product quality, consistency, and safety. This application note explores the challenges of pH management across bioprocessing stages and introduces Pulsafeeder’s NextStep pump as a reliable solution for accurate chemical dosing and process stability.

60. Protecting Pumps From Dead Head Conditions 4/6/2017

    The C445 motor management relay offers the most configurable protection options in the industry, with features specifically designed to protect critical pumps from costly damages due to dead-head and other underloaded or starved pump conditions.
