    Real-time wastewater monitoring with fluorometers enables instant contaminant detection, helping treatment plants adjust quickly, prevent pollution, meet regulations, and better protect public health and the environment.

  8. When Disaster Strikes Nearby, Wastewater Systems Face The Surge 3/6/2025

    Discover how investing in scalable, adaptive systems now ensures resilience not just for today’s disasters but for the challenges ahead.

  9. Enhancing Leak Detection With Remote Pressure Monitoring 3/3/2025

    Remote pressure monitoring is increasingly being implemented by progressive water utilities, both large and small, to get better visibility into their distribution systems. This results in lower operating costs and reduced stress on their aging pipe networks.

  10. Built to Weather Any Storm: One of the Largest Drainage Pumping Stations in the World 3/1/2025

    After Hurricane Katrina, the Army Corps of Engineers moved quickly to fast-track a multi-billion-dollar infrastructure project to shore up the Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection System – a project that had been stalled for decades. As part of this effort, Pentair was commissioned to build 11 massive pumps to be installed along the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway (GIWW) just south of New Orleans.
