Wastewater Treatment Resources

41. Why You Should Replace Differential Pressure Transmitters With Radar 3/6/2026

    Replacing DP transmitters with 80 GHz radar eliminates density errors, reduces maintenance, and simplifies installation — delivering safer, more reliable level measurement for modern wastewater systems.

42. From Compliance To Circularity: Rethinking Chromium Management In Chrome Tanning 3/5/2026
    In an industrial landscape increasingly shaped by lifecycle accountability, material traceability, and rising disposal costs, chromium recovery is not merely a technical alternative — it is a strategic upgrade, where wastewater can become a resource stream.
43. Pumping And Network Operations Optimized Through Collaborative Digital Twins 2/24/2026

    Collaborative digital twins streamline utility operations by integrating real-time data into a shared, intuitive environment. This approach enables precise pump optimization, efficient maintenance scheduling, and proactive network simulations to improve water quality and system resilience.

44. Innovative Water Reuse Solutions With Xylem's Advanced Treatment Technology 2/19/2026

    Transitioning to advanced purification methods like UV-hypochlorite oxidation allows municipalities to secure reliable, local water supplies. These strategies mitigate drought risks and protect coastal environments by transforming wastewater into a high-quality resource for reuse.

45. Produced Water Treatment Market: The Next Big Wave In Industrial Sustainability 2/18/2026
    With the rise of water scarcity, environmental regulations, and corporate sustainability mandates, produced water treatment has become a strategic imperative for industries far beyond oil and gas. It is one of the fastest-growing segments in the water treatment industry, which has emerged as an amalgamation of environmental stewardship, regulatory compliance, and technological innovation.
46. Reimagining Wastewater Screening: Advances In Headworks Protection That Reduce Downstream Costs 2/16/2026

    Wastewater treatment plants are facing a more challenging influent environment than ever before, making effective inlet screening a much higher priority. Extreme weather is driving bigger and more frequent peaking events heavily laden with plastics and other non-biodegradable debris, while modern waste stream challenges like flushable wipes, pharmaceuticals that bind to solids, fats, and oils that form fatbergs, and a growing load of non-dissolvable materials are overwhelming systems designed for a bygone era.

47. Reclaiming Water From Contaminated Brine Can Increase Water Supply And Reduce Environmental Harm 2/6/2026
    People around the globe are trying to figure out how to save, conserve, and reuse water in a variety of ways, including reusing treated sewage wastewater and removing valuable salts from seawater. But for all the clean water they may produce, those processes leave behind a type of liquid called brine. I’m working on getting the water out of that potential source, too.
48. L.A.'s Terminal Island Water Reclamation Plant Leverages Water Reuse To Protect Groundwater Supply 2/5/2026

    In this article, Lance Thibodeaux, division manager for the Terminal Island water reclamation division at LA Sanitation and Environment, describes Terminal Island’s industry leading water reuse program and its long-time partnership with Xylem.

49. AI-Driven Chemical Optimization In Wastewater Treatment Through Data-Based Decision Making 1/28/2026

    Chemical programs are essential components of wastewater treatment. Whether the goal is phosphorus removal, odor control, improved solids settling, or final polishing, chemicals often play a vital role in meeting permit limits and ensuring stable operations.

50. What To Know Before You Invest In New Headworks Equipment 1/21/2026

    Successful headworks investments depend on understanding site needs, matching technology to application, evaluating total cost of ownership, and choosing vendors that prioritize long-term performance and reliable support.
