Wastewater Filtration Resources

31. Reconditioned And Rehabbed Filters Succeed At Large Treatment Plant 6/14/2019

    A large treatment plant includes several treatment processes that contribute to providing quality recycled water pursuant to the state of California Title 22 regulations. Major treatment processes include raw wastewater pumping, preliminary treatment, primary treatment, secondary treatment, tertiary treatment with Parkson DynaSand® filters, and disinfection.

32. Church Road Transfer Station - Modular MBR Wastewater Treatment Plant 5/28/2019

    The Church Road Transfer Station (CRTS) is located southwest of downtown Parksville, British Columbia in the Regional District of Nanaimo (RDN). The facility receives organic waste, solid waste, recyclables, and construction/demolition waste from the general public and commercial haulers. Its expansion under the RDN’s Green Building Policy transformed it into a zero-waste facility.

33. TITAN MBR™ Microfiltration Provides Private Development Site With Water Reuse Capabilities 5/21/2019

    When developers of a condominium complex sourced wastewater treatment systems, it did so with two primary requirements: efficient land utilization and high effluent quality to meet stringent guidelines. State regulators advised the developers to discuss combining its wastewater system with the owner’s association of an adjacent housing development, whose existing wastewater treatment system was aging and required augmentation.

34. Ontario - Modular MBR Sewage Treatment Plant 5/18/2019

    The Detour Lake deposit is Canada’s largest undeveloped pure gold reserve, and is located approximately eight kilometers west of the Ontario-Québec border, 180 kilometers northeast of Cochrane, Ontario. Gold production at the site began in early 2013 and production at the mine is expected to grow over time.

35. Removing Iron From Groundwater 4/15/2019

    In 2008 Texas was facing an extended drought and the City of San Angelo was weighing its alternatives. The City felt the Hickory Aquifer well field was the best water option available, but this water contained significant amounts of radium and iron.

36. Pile Cloth Media Filtration For Clean Utilities 4/15/2019

    Cooling towers and boilers consume the most fresh water in the industry, with industrial process waters carrying the balance. Power plants and refineries use more water volume for the cooling process than any other area of the facility. Mining and food and beverage industries consume higher volumes for their processes. Clean water may come from a range of sources, including clarified surface waters, groundwater or properly treated wastewater (reuse) sources.

37. City Saves Big Money By Using Cloth Media Filters To Treat CSO Discharge 4/12/2019

    The City of Rushville, Indiana had to remedy a consent order filed in 2007 for its untreated combined sewer overflow (CSO) discharges that were polluting the Flatrock River, a violation of the Clean Water Act. The city originally planned to install a 1 MGD stormwater storage tank, but was approached by Aqua-Aerobic representatives with a pilot test proposal utilizing a new technology.

38. Filter Installations Remove Solids From FGD Scrubber Effluent 4/9/2019

    Power plants and refineries around the world must manage and treat complex effluent waste streams from the Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) process. Flue gas is generated by the combustion process of fossil and fossil-derived fuels, such as coal, oils, and natural gas in power plants. Petrochemical refineries may generate flue gas from a number of different processes, including Catalytic Cracking, Steam Methane Reforming, and Heaters or Furnaces.

39. The Role Of IoT And Control Technologies In Water Filtration Systems 10/16/2018

    Filtration and separation technologies are the core of water treatment processes, and in many cases, they can be critical process bottlenecks. 

40. Dual Parallel Lateral Filter Underdrains Selected To Replace Underperforming Nozzle Design At Mexico's Largest Drinking Water Treatment Plant 10/3/2018

    Located about 78 miles (125 kilometers) west of Mexico City lies the municipality of Villa de Allende, home of Mexico’s largest potable water treatment plant. The Los Berros water treatment plant was constructed in 1980 by the National Water Commission (Conagua), an agency of the Mexican government that manages the nation’s drinking water and wastewater treatment. The plant provides 396.3 million gal/day (1.5 billion L/day) of water to the country’s capital city, equivalent to approximately 25 percent of the total water supply of the western hemisphere’s most populace metropolitan area.
