Wastewater Case Studies and Whitepapers

  1. Maintaining Greater Value In Bar Screen Performance 2/20/2019

    Before wastewater can be treated to minimize biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), nutrients, and pathogens, it is important to eliminate as much debris as practical, as early on in the treatment plant as possible, to avoid clogging pumps or compromising downstream performance. Careful consideration of design and operating factors can minimize total lifecycle costs and maintenance effort while protecting screening efficiency.

  2. CFD: 'Paint By Numbers' Insight Into Fluid Mixing Performance 4/8/2021

    Here are some insights on CFD technology, its specific use in wastewater basins, and inside tips on how to apply it to greatest advantage across a variety of processes.

  3. Sewer Bypass Projects Surge As Infrastructure Ages 2/18/2020

    Temporary bypass systems allow for necessary maintenance and repair. 

  4. Demystifying Explosion Proof Submersible Pumps 12/18/2012

    When the discussion turns to requirements for “explosion-proof” pumps, many people rely on word of mouth, past practices or even old wives tales it seems. By Kevin Clemons

  5. Conversion From Chlorine To UV Treatment In Auburn, Alabama 10/23/2013

    The city of Auburn, AL has two wastewater treatment facilities – the Northside Water Pollution Control Facility and the H.C. Morgan Water Pollution Control Facility. In 2012, the H.C. Morgan facility was upgraded, and treatment was converted from chlorine to UV. This case study will provide you with details about the selection process, why our TrojanUVSigna™ was chosen, and how we helped simplified the conversion from chlorine.

  6. Encapsulation Fittings: The Pipe Repair Solution You Didn't Know You Need 9/23/2022

    Encapsulation fittings offer a solution to pipe repairs involving difficult-to-access lines, critical lines to users such as hospitals, intercity areas, or major traffic arteries.

  7. A Guide To Wastewater Pump Materials: Selecting The Right Materials To Extend System Life And Raise Performance 8/13/2013

    Wastewater can be both corrosive and abrasive. To ensure reliable and cost-effective pump operation, it is important to select a wastewater pump made from the most suitable material for your wastewater.

  8. Enhance Performance & Minimize Downtime With Blower Upgrades 9/23/2024

    Rather than purchase a whole new blower package, wastewater treatment plants can gain the functions and features of a next-generation blower with strategic upgrades.

  9. How To Execute A Combined Control Strategy For Dissolved Oxygen 3/30/2019

    Maintaining dissolved oxygen levels by pairing smart controls with multiple blowers is emerging as a desirable method to address airflow requirements. Selecting the proper system and avoiding unnecessary complications are critical to successful implementation.

  10. N-Technology Impeller Pumps Eliminate FOG Buildup At Resort And Casino 3/19/2015

    The successful addition of new restaurants and clubs at a resort and casino in Upstate NY brought with them a flow of fats, oil and grease (FOG), which gelled into a floating blanket atop the main station’s wet well, where the sewage flows converge from the network of smaller stations throughout the property boundaries.
