Wastewater Membranes Resources

  1. In The BREW Tank, Everyone’s A Winner 10/26/2015

    The BREW Tank was a series of brief product pitches in the vein of television’s popular reality competition “Shark Tank.”

  2. Will Zero Liquid Discharge Save Forward Osmosis? 9/10/2015

    While increasing patents indicate potential forward osmosis (FO) applications that may generate opportunities for new FO products, a new BlueTech Research Insight Report explores the reasons why FO remains a niche technology.

  3. Methadone In The Water: What’s The Real Risk? 8/28/2015

    An environmental study made headlines this spring as it drew a distinct parallel between the growing PPCP epidemic and a poisonous disinfection byproduct (DBP) making its way into drinking water.

  4. Reaching Zero Liquid Discharge: A Starter’s Guide 8/26/2015

    Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) systems employ cutting-edge technologies to minimize water use within a given industrial facility and maximize the reuse of its processed wastewater. In the perfect ZLD system, no effluent ever leaves the factory, savings are immense, discharge and reuse requirements are met with ease, and the praise of conservation groups is bestowed fervently.

  5. Changxing Power Plant Debuts The World’s First Forward Osmosis-Based Zero Liquid Discharge Application 8/20/2015

    Desalination Technology Transforms 650 m3/day of Abused Industrial Wastewater

  6. ED vs. RO: The Benefits Of Electrodialysis For Desalination 8/11/2015

    There is no doubt that reverse osmosis (RO) currently reigns among desalination techniques, if your metric is total number of installations. But a new competitor has arisen, at least for particular applications. If you have brackish water in the 2,000 to 15,000 ppm range of total dissolved solids (TDS), you may want to consider electrodialysis (ED) over RO.

  7. Innovative Options For Brackish And Wastewater RO Concentrate Disposal 6/1/2015

    In an era of inspired recycling and enviable reuse of industrial and manufacturing byproducts, the water treatment industry continues to search for innovative disposal options or, better yet, viable secondary use options for high TDS (total dissolved solids) RO (reverse osmosis) concentrate streams

  8. The Future Of Energy-Neutral Wastewater Treatment Is Here 5/27/2015

    Resource recovery during wastewater treatment is becoming essential. Thanks to new technologies, it’s also achievable.

  9. Nanofiltration: The Up-And-Coming Membrane Process 5/18/2015

    The forgotten child of the membrane family has plenty of capabilities and potential. Learn the factors and applications that are increasing the popularity of nanofiltration.

  10. The Do’s And Don’ts Of MBR Pretreatment 5/5/2015

    They say a picture's worth a thousand words. If that's true, this image of a fouled membrane bioreactor (MBR) system needs little prelude — it's simply what happens when you don't properly protect your membranes with pretreatment.
