Wastewater Case Studies and Whitepapers

  1. Springdale, Arkansas, Wastewater Treatment Plant Operators Call Headworks Screens 'Bulletproof' 1/4/2017

    The Poultry Capital of the World is a city in northwest Arkansas in the heart of the Ozark Mountain range. Springdale, Arkansas, the fourth largest city in the state, is the headquarters for Tyson Food Corporation, the world's largest meat-producing company. The city was founded in the mid-1800s and has been a hub for agriculture and industry in the region since then. In addition, the region is home to outdoors activities like fishing, hunting, camping, boating, etc., and the natural, outdoors life is enjoyed by many residents as well as visitors to the area.

  2. Three-Dimensional ROI: Getting More Than Just Dollars From Your Smart Water Network 12/22/2020

    When it comes to digital transformation via ‘smart city’ technologies for leak detection or sewer overflow prevention, utility needs inevitably overlap with the economic and infrastructure interests of other city operations. Evaluating operating efficiencies in the context of three-dimensional (3D) ROI can uncover practical ways to drive greater dividends for all concerned — utilities, society, and the environment around them.

  3. TASKMASTER Aids In Biomass Research 12/10/2020

    At CRBM Marine Biology Research Center in Quebec, Canada, researchers were in search of a grinder for a project involving marine biomass. A big part of this research project was focused on finding and extracting marine molecules that could fight against major diseases such as cancer (breast, lung, prostatic and intestinal). For the research, marine materials such as hard shells, lobster pieces, stretchable fish skin and even large and resistant seaweed needed to be ground to a homogeneous size so the research elements could be effectively extracted from the material. Getting the output size right was imperative to having a workable material for the very delicate extractions and research.

  4. Using Master Controls To Enhance Aeration And Reduce Power Use 8/6/2019

    Precision management of dissolved oxygen (DO) allows wastewater treatment plant operators to maintain optimal biological conditions in their activated sludge basins. However, older blowers and a lack of advanced aeration oversight can sabotage that effort while substantially wasting money.

  5. How To Manage The 4 Water-Based Fluids Associated With Hydraulic Fracturing 12/26/2013

    The primary fluid used in hydraulic fracturing is water and the completion process can require from 2.75 - 8.25 million gallons per well. This white paper discusses the different water management and instrumentation requirements for controlling and processing drilling mud, hydraulic fracturing fluid, flowback water and produced water.

  6. Our Screens Work Great! Now What? (Part 3 Of 3) 9/22/2016

    This is the third installment of a three-part series exploring headworks screening problems and solutions. In this installment we will explore solids removal options for headworks facilities.

  7. Remove CO2 With SEPAREL Degassing Modules 2/15/2018

    In recent years, hollow fiber membrane degassing modules have become an ideal option for CO2 removal when compared to harmful, costly chemicals and bulky deaerating towers.

  8. Evoqua Helps WWTP Address Future Tertiary Filtration Requirements 1/30/2023

    Discover how Disc Filter increases filtration capacity and performance in a small footprint. 

  9. Z-88® Radium Treatment Process - City Of New Underwood, South Dakota Case Study 8/9/2012

    This radium removal pilot study was conducted for the City of New Underwood, South Dakota. New Underwood’s water system contains concentrations of radium and gross alpha in excess of the Maximum Contaminant Levels (MCL).

  10. The Benefits Of Adaptive Control Systems 2/21/2019

    In municipal and industrial wastewater treatment, there has been a shift from manual to automatic process control in order to increase efficiency and improve effluent quality.
