  2. University System Remains Operational Thanks To EZ VALVE 1/10/2022

    The installation of an AVT EZ Valve has helped to future-proof the water system of a university utility system in a Northeastern U.S city. 

  3. Chlorine Scrubber Installation Protects World-Class Water Treatment Plants In The Phillipines 11/18/2016

    In 2014, bids were solicited to design, supply, install, and commission two Emergency Chlorine Scrubber Systems at the La Mesa Treatment Plants 1 and 2 in Quezon City, Philippines.

  4. Membrane Aerated Biofilm Reactor Technology Validated For Title 22 Compliance 2/13/2019

    Title 22 of California’s Water Recycling Criteria is among the strictest water treatment standards for water recycling and reuse in the United States. Fluence’s MABR demonstration plant was installed at the Codiga Resource Recovery Center (CR2C) in Stanford, California, in January 2018 for the purpose of third-party evaluation. The testing parameters included criteria to evaluate reliable enhanced nutrient removal in the form of Total Nitrogen, which is increasingly important across the United States and difficult and costly to achieve through conventional wastewater treatment.

  5. Advances In UV Disinfection For Wastewater Tertiary Treatment In Open Channels 10/2/2025

    Meeting modern water reuse goals requires moving past legacy disinfection. Advances in UV technology now provide chemical-free, reliable pathogen inactivation for even high-flow, open-channel tertiary treatment.

  6. Decreasing Lifecycle Costs: Don't Lose Dollars Chasing After Cents 10/27/2022

    This article explores some of the best practices to ensure overall station reliability, i.e., “total station efficiency,” in order to keep operating costs and downtime at a minimum.

  7. Coal Yard Runoff Compliance Using Actiflo® Technology 3/6/2015

    Storm water runoff from a 37-acre coal storage yard utilized as part of daily operations at an industrial site in Southwestern Pennsylvania posed a problem when the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) updated the facility’s NPDES permit.

  8. Continuous Fill SBR Tanks Help WWTP Exceed Effluent Requirements, Generate Additional Revenue 12/10/2013

    In order to meet the anticipated effluent criteria required by the Pennsylvania DEP, the Newville Borough Water & Sewer Authority determined that its existing wastewater treatment facility needed renovations. By installing two continuous fill SBR tanks, the facility lowered total nitrogen below permit limits, reduced energy costs, and created a new revenue stream (selling unused nutrient allocations). Read the case study for full details.
