Wastewater Case Studies and Whitepapers

  1. VLR® System For Biological Treatment Case Study 10/8/2014

    Economic development has its price and sometimes calls for major upgrades to a community’s wastewater treatment facilities.

  2. How To Design A Solution For A Temporary Water Or Vapor Treatment Project 9/14/2022

    The key to a successful water treatment or vapor extraction project is to understand the elements that can impact the treatment process, as well dispelling key myths about temporary treatment systems.

  3. PFAS Remediation: How To Construct A Temporary Solution For A Forever Chemical 7/27/2022

    This article will discuss considerations for designing a temporary solution for removing per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from water, including effective technologies and how to select a solutions provider.

  4. The Elimination Of Fecal Coliforms And E. coli In Lagoons 11/29/2023

    Many horse racetracks throughout the world are designed to drain water from the track into a lagoon that is located in the infield of the track. Due to the track being predominantly used for horse racing, there is a high amount of fecal coliform, especially of the Escherichia coli species, bacteria in the water that drains from the track. During the racing season, fecal coliform and E. coli counts increase dramatically and the subsequent drainage of these lagoons can become a problem for the receiving waters.

  5. The Minimalist Guide to Water Quality Analysis For Biological Nutrient Removal 5/21/2018

    Nitrogen and phosphorus are two wastewater constituents that, together, pose one of the most high-profile threats for consumers and the environment. An abundance of these elements is what ultimately leads to the formation of toxic algae in surface waters, an environmental issue that regularly gains mainstream headlines and, in some cases, poses an acute health risk to consumers.

  6. Getting A Better Handle On Open Channel Flows 6/8/2021

    Flow meter choices are plentiful when it comes to full pipes, but the lack of options for open channels and partially filled pipes in wastewater and stormwater applications presents a special challenge for municipalities. In many of those cases, utility managers are contending with water contaminated with foam, oil, grease, or debris. The good news is that economical and reliable open channel flow meters are available to tackle those issues.

  7. Matt Brewing — Spent Hops Screening And Dewatering 8/11/2014

    An internally fed rotary screen with wedgewire drum featuring 0.020” screen slot openings is applied to screen 900 GPM of brewery wastewater and remove spent hops while letting yeast pass through to reach the anaerobic digester.

  8. Enhancing Wastewater Treatment With Efficient Blower Systems 10/10/2024

    Welcome to a world where innovation meets a tradition of superior quality–where KAESER delivers products and an experience that raises the bar for what you expect from blower solutions.

  9. Polymer Activation Equipment Upgrade Yields Consistent Polymer Savings Of Over 13% 9/24/2018

    In an effort to lower operational costs and extend the life of the dewatering centrifuge, operators in Springboro, OH, began to look at the polymer activation equipment in use at the plant. The Polyblend® M-Series emulsion polymer activation systems had been in steady operation for over 10 years. The equipment still performed reliably, but operators were interested in ways to achieve greater efficiency. They were aware of the new Polyblend® Magnum mix chamber, with its enhanced two-zone mixing energy.

  10. AquaNereda® Aerobic Granular Sludge Technology 4/10/2020

    The AquaNereda® Aerobic Granular Sludge (AGS) Technology is an innovative biological wastewater treatment technology that provides advanced treatment using the unique features of aerobic granular biomass. An aerobic granular biomass is comprised of compact granules that provide advantages compared to other secondary treatment processes.
