  1. Control Valve Selection: Criteria And Key Considerations For Utilizing Online Sizing And Selection Tools 8/15/2024
    Choosing the right process control valve is essential for ensuring operational efficiency and reliability and avoiding expensive downtime. The advent of online sizing and selection tools has transformed the process of selecting valves, providing a more efficient and accurate way to determine the best valve for each specific application.
  2. Community RISES To Occasion For Coastal Restoration Project 8/7/2024

    The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New York District is collaborating with RISE (Rockaway Initiative for Sustainability and Equity) and other partners to make Rockaway Beach more resilient to coastal storm erosion and flooding that has increased due to more frequent and stronger coastal storms.

  3. Rethinking Preparedness: Flooding Can Happen Anywhere 7/29/2024

    Severe flooding is shaking communities across the globe, and governments everywhere — regardless of their historical risk factors — need to use more advanced technology systems in order to keep citizens safe.

  4. New Nashville Equalization Facility Helps Manage Wastewater Flows 7/18/2024
    Workers in Nashville recently completed an $18.9 million project to supplement an existing pump station to help manage excessive flows in the existing sewer system. The new equalization storage tank is the centerpiece to the facility, and those tanks play an important role in wastewater management.
  5. Improving The Resilience Of A UV System For Wastewater Disinfection 7/18/2024
    One important consequence of climate change for wastewater treatment plants is that they now need to cope with sudden increases in the effluent volume with the receiving waterbodies equally carrying more water and being in flood conditions. This is especially true for the final treatment step — disinfection prior to discharge.
  6. Harnessing Rainwater: A Sustainable Solution For Water Security 7/15/2024

    The global rainwater harvesting market, valued at US$839.7 million in 2022, is projected to exhibit a robust CAGR of 6.3%, reaching US$1.5 billion by 2031. This growth is driven by escalating water scarcity concerns exacerbated by erratic rainfall patterns and climate change impacts.

  7. Hydraulic Modeling: Engineered For Florida's Booming Population 7/12/2024
    A case study on working smarter and saving resources by leveraging technology to inform project planning and management.
  8. The Potential Of Rainwater As A Renewable Resource 7/12/2024

    As water resources become more stressed, continuing to "waste" rainwater becomes increasingly inadvisable, perhaps even irresponsible.

  9. Optimization Strategies To Streamline Community Wastewater Utility Operations 7/12/2024
    The availability of robust, stable treatment systems with simple treatment processes and O&M is key to serving growing community wastewater treatment demand.
  10. A Multi-Billion-Dollar Water Industry Segment Not To Be Overlooked 7/11/2024
    Water resources are a critical component of any region's ecosystems. But, perhaps even more important is the realization that water is also essential for human survival. Its needs cannot be ignored.
