Wastewater Case Studies and Whitepapers

  1. Case Study: Andrews Infrastructure - Sewer Main remote inspection 12/10/2007
    Andrews Infrastructure provides remote sewer-main inspection to municipalities. A problem for the firm was the lowering and retrieval of its cameras and umbilical cords down deep shafts
  2. PFOA/PFOS Stormwater Treatment 5/11/2021

    Following several years of piloting ion exchange resin for the removal of perfluorinated compounds, CKS Engineers needed to design and construct a full-scale system to treat the former military base stormwater runoff before entering Neshaminy Creek.

  3. Local Support Saves Time And Money 2/1/2016

    At a water treatment plant that provides drinking water for distribution to a large area of customers, a contractor decided to switch to SITRANS FM MAG 5100W flowmeters. A local representative saved a the contractor time and money by recognizing the need for the magmeter to be isolated from the piping protection before startup, which also saved the customer from added downtime.

  4. Electromagnetic Flow Meters, Flow Straighteners, And Vanes: Compatible Or Not? 7/13/2021

    Those familiar with propeller flow meters are usually familiar with their common counterparts, flow straighteners and vanes. Implemented to reduce swirl in shorter straight-run applications, straighteners are a complementary instrument for agriculture, irrigation, and municipal flow measurement applications.

  5. From Off-The-Shelf To Custom RO Systems For Industrial Applications 11/14/2023

    Read about why reverse osmosis is one of the most effective technologies in water purification. 

  6. The Root Of The Problem: How Trees Affect Our Sewers 9/20/2024

    In this article, explore how tree roots grow and how they impact our sewer systems.

  7. MBR Modules Help Achieve Sustainable Management Of Wastewater On Vancouver Island 4/29/2022

    The Cowichan Valley Regional District (CVRD) in Vancouver Island, Canada teamed with Toray to successfully install several membrane bio-reactor (MBR) systems updated with new technology to expand capacity.

  8. What You Need To Know About Peracetic Acid (PAA) For Water Treatment 4/21/2022

    Peracetic acid (PAA) is begging to supplement or replace chlorine in some water and wastewater treatment applications, particularly where disinfection byproducts (DBPs) are a challenge.

  9. VM V-Cone: When Is A Differential Pressure Meter Best For Municipal Applications? 7/13/2021

    Oftentimes in municipal flow applications utilities and districts opt for a propeller meter, an electromagnetic (mag) meter, or another type of “no moving parts” meter like an ultrasonic device. However, there are instances in which a differential pressure (DP) meter is a more attractive option, and specifically the VM V-Cone, McCrometer’s DP meter designed for a wide variety of municipal flow applications.

  10. 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.
