Geomembrane Liner Selection For Municipal Wastewater Lagoons: HDPE vs. LLDPE vs. RPP — A Field Installer's Perspective
7/14/2026
High-density polyethylene (HDPE), linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), and reinforced polypropylene (RPP), among other materials, all show up on municipal wastewater and manure lagoon liner projects. Each of these lagoon liners has a place, and the differences aren't just chemistry on a datasheet; they show up physically on site.

Beyond Clarification: Optimizing Polyacrylamide Selection For High-Complexity Industrial Wastewater Treatment
4/21/2026
Polyacrylamide (PAM) selection in industrial wastewater treatment is frequently reduced to a trial-and-error exercise, resulting in reagent waste, inconsistent effluent quality, and inflated operating costs. This article presents a structured framework for PAM optimization across three critical variables — ionic charge density, molecular weight, and coagulant synergy.

Sustainable Wastewater Solutions For Today's Challenges
3/13/2026
Traditional gravity sewers rely on large-diameter mains, deep trenches, and often multiple lift stations — elements that carry significant capital and restoration costs, particularly in rural or rugged terrain. To improve cost efficiency and sustainability, many municipalities are adopting decentralized collection systems such as Septic Tank Effluent Pump (STEP) systems, Septic Tank Effluent Gravity (STEG) systems, and liquid-only sewers.

Liquid-Only Sewers: A New Approach To Decentralized Wastewater Collection
1/14/2026
Traditional sewer systems, while effective, often require significant capital investment, invasive implementation measures, and complex maintenance. As a result, innovative decentralized wastewater solutions are necessary to address the needs of communities or commercial areas in need of wastewater service. One such solution is the liquid-only sewer (LOS) system.

Mobile Equipment Reduces Phosphorus In Wastewater Effluent
11/5/2025
When frigid temperatures hinder standard filtration, mobile high-rate clarification provides a rapid response to stabilize effluent quality. This approach ensures total phosphorus remains below strict permit limits during seasonal spikes without requiring long-term capital investment or infrastructure overhauls.
