  1. Benefits Of Integrating Chemical Metering Pumps Into SCADA 5/28/2026

    SCADA-connected chemical metering pumps improve dosing accuracy, reduce labor, and enable proactive maintenance — helping utilities modernize operations without massive infrastructure overhauls.

  2. Six Weeks Or Six Hours? Why Lead Times Are Breaking Wastewater Utilities 5/20/2026

    Wastewater utilities cannot afford six-week delays when pumps fail. Learn how domestic manufacturing and local inventory are reshaping emergency response and maintenance strategies.

  3. ThingsLog As An Over-the-Top SCADA: Delivering Operational Intelligence The Moment You Need It — Without The Civil Works 5/15/2026

    Operational intelligence shouldn't be delayed by trenching and permitting. By leveraging wireless networks and low-power hardware, utilities can deploy real-time monitoring across complex terrain in weeks rather than months, bypassing the high costs of traditional infrastructure.

  4. Why You Need To Modernize Your Pump Station Controllers 4/9/2026

    Modern pump controllers enhance cybersecurity, reduce maintenance, and optimize performance, helping utilities replace reactive operations with more efficient, resilient, and future-ready wastewater systems.

  5. How To Design Stormwater Pump Stations For The Next 50 Years 4/9/2026

    Stormwater systems must evolve for extreme weather. Submersible pumps, compact designs, and digital modeling help build resilient infrastructure capable of handling future flood challenges.

  6. Why Early Vendor Partnership Is The Secret To Engineering Success 4/9/2026

    Early vendor collaboration helps engineers avoid costly pump design mistakes by providing application expertise, advanced analysis tools, and insights that ensure wastewater pumping systems perform reliably from startup onward.

  7. Is Monitoring Of Total Or Free Chlorine A Better Option For Dechlorination Control? 3/26/2026

    Accurate dechlorination control requires monitoring all residual oxidants that threaten membrane integrity. Total chlorine analysis provides the necessary precision at ultra-low levels, ensuring comprehensive protection against oxidative damage while maintaining reagent stability during intermittent system operations.

  8. Beyond The SCADA Alarm: Building A Predictive Framework For Water Quality Operations 3/12/2026

    Transitioning from reactive SCADA alarms to predictive water quality frameworks improves operational resilience. By unifying data and automating reporting, utilities can identify emerging risks early, ensuring continuous compliance and more efficient resource management across complex treatment processes.

  9. Centralizing Wastewater Operations Through A Unified Digital Operating System 1/22/2026

    Each day, operators and managers use SCADA systems, lab results, maintenance logs, and compliance records to make decisions. However, in many facilities, this information is stored in separate systems that don’t communicate well with each other.

  10. Smarter Control For Seasonal Demand: How Aquana Smart Valves Help Utilities Manage Frequent Water Shutoffs 1/5/2026

    Managing water service in high-turnover communities requires balancing operational costs with infrastructure protection. Remote control technology enables utilities to mitigate the risks of frequent shutoffs, reduce labor-intensive field visits, and detect leaks in vacant properties.
