  1. New Turbocompressors Boost Efficiency At Wastewater Plant 7/6/2020

    Sulzer engineers helped a plant in the Netherlands cut its energy costs with a turnkey project. Now the plant’s owners have worked with Sulzer engineers to upgrade its existing units with three latest generation machines.

  2. EPA's SARS-CoV-2 Research: Assessing Virus Levels In Sewage For Community Level Screening 6/9/2020

    EPA researchers are developing and applying methods for detecting different forms of the virus, including live, or infectious, virus and the genetic marker of the virus, its RNA, in wastewater. Standard, reproducible methods of detection are critical to accurately inform public health decisions. This research will focus on developing the best method for detection.

  3. Reducing Water Waste And Increasing Reuse With Remote Monitoring And Control 5/12/2020

    Now more than ever, it’s time to explore circular water management solutions to prevent loss of the world’s most valuable resource.

  4. Ultrasonic And Radar Level Technologies: Bringing Clarity To The Water And Wastewater Market 5/7/2020

    If your head spins after reading how amazing one level measurement technology is in comparison to another, understanding the key attributes of these technologies and their applicability to specific processes may help to clear the waters.

  5. COVID-19 And Wastewater Utilities 4/23/2020

    Today, the world is facing unprecedented circumstances that are affecting every single sector and the water service is no exception. Although there is still more research to be done, this article has collected the currently available information to highlight how wastewater utilities have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. More specifically, this article will attempt to look at the outbreak’s impact on utilities, the potential hazards, and the predominant solution.

  6. How Can The Water Industry Benefit From IoT Technology? 4/16/2020

    The technology of the Internet of Things (IoT) has been a pioneer in developing solutions that are rich in monitoring, analytical, and automation features. These innovative features allow the industry to optimize operational methodologies, boost overall equipment effectiveness, and automate processes that are generally performed manually.

  7. Applying Data-as-a-Service To The Wastewater Sector 4/6/2020

    A major concern with real-time monitoring networks is the accuracy and reliability of data. In 2017, the Smart Water Networks Forum (SWAN) surveyed 23 global water utilities about their Big Data management practices as part of a Water Research Foundation (WRF) study, including their barriers to adoption.

  8. Modernizing Monitoring And Manual Data Entry For Water And Wastewater 3/17/2020

    Advancements in security and technology help bring confidence — and a multitude of benefits — to remote, cloud-based utility monitoring.

  9. The Future Of Collection Systems 1/21/2020

    As real-time monitoring continues to infiltrate the water industry, it’s time to apply such instrumentation to detect the other type of infiltration — along with inflow, snow and ice melt, etc.

  10. The Drive Towards Digital Transformation 11/25/2019

    It seems that everywhere that you go in the water industry at the current time, somebody is talking about digital transformation…or if we go back five minutes, it was Water 4.0…and 10 minutes ago (it seems), it was “smart water.” These are all very well used buzzwords that the industry is destined to think about for a short-term and then promptly forget about. In reality, though, we as an industry have been hit by a number of different concepts for a number of different technological aspects for a good number of years now. For almost as long we have had a term for all of this — “widgets.”
