Wastewater Case Studies and Whitepapers

  1. 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.

  2. Protecting The Environment And Reducing Cost Through Improved Sludge Quality 4/13/2022

    Sassuolo WWTP operators noticed high levels of zinc in generated sludge. Here is how Kando helped prevent metal contamination, allowing the sludge to be applied for agriculture.

  3. Dechlorination Of Boiler Makeup Water At Baseload Generation Facility 4/14/2024

    Atlantium Technologies installed a HOD UV system at a North American baseload generation facility to replace GAC filters and provide efficient and effective water treatment. The system ensures low chlorine concentration and reduces bacterial growth.

  4. The History Of Water Infrastructure And What We Can Learn From It 9/16/2016

    This article is in support of the Imagine a Day Without Water campaign –- a national online movement to raise awareness about the value of water and water infrastructure. See more articles on AMERICAN’s Imagine a Day Without Water home page.

  5. 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.

  6. CeraQ Ceramic Membranes Provide Robust Solution For Automotive Parts Manufacturing 3/23/2016

    An automotive parts manufacturing plant was using a polymeric membrane to remove oil from water it used to rinse parts. The rinse water contained between 6% and 7% oil and the customer wanted to remove >95% of the oil from the water so the water could be reused in the plant.

  7. Stormwater Wetland Reduces Sewer Overflow By 84 Percent 10/21/2015

    Through hydraulic computer modeling, MWH Global helped alleviate stormwater flooding in Cambridge, M.A., by creating the Alewife Reservation Stormwater Wetland to enhance water quality and provide recreational benefits to the community.

  8. Integrating Artificial Intelligence With Machine Learning Deluge Tool 4/18/2024

    With climate change exacerbating extreme weather events and shifting hydrologic models, our traditional drainage systems have failed us repeatedly. It’s evident that engineers, designers, water modelers and the like need to advance the way that we design drainage systems.

  9. Do More With Less: Integrating Nutrient Removal Control Improves Treatment Capacity And Efficiency 11/9/2017

    Wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) are facing many challenges. Permits on nitrogen and phosphorus in the effluent water are progressively becoming stricter in order to protect surface waters from eutrophication. At the same time, plants are required to reduce both energy and chemical consumption and are often challenged with limited time and staff. In total, they are required to do more with less. In order to meet these challenges, a plant with a Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) in Green Lake, Wisconsin was upgraded with an advanced process control system – the OSCAR process performance optimizer with NURO controller.

  10. An Affordable Greywater Treatment And Reuse Solution For Commercial Properties 4/21/2020

    The Boy Scouts of America wanted an environmentally friendly method for disposing of the greywater generated by their shower buildings. Here’s how Orenco’s AdvanTex Treatment Systems helped.
