Wastewater Treatment Resources

  1. How To Choose Among Wastewater Screen Options 4/8/2026

    Wastewater screening isn’t one-size-fits-all. The right choice depends on flow, debris, and efficiency needs, with long-term performance and maintenance costs shaping the best solution.

  2. Lowering Project Costs With AquaNereda® Aerobic Granular Sludge Technology 4/8/2026

    Aerobic granular sludge enables compact, energy-efficient nutrient removal, helping utilities increase capacity and reduce costs without expanding footprint or relying on complex, multi-stage treatment systems.

  3. The AWWA Said $2.4 Trillion. It Missed The Compound Interest. 4/1/2026
    Einstein once said of compound interest, "He who understands it, earns it. He who doesn't, pays it." The same logic of compounding applies to the organic sediment accumulating on the floor of your drinking water reservoir. The longer you wait to address it, the more exponentially expensive it becomes to fix.
  4. Case Study: Groundwater DWTP (AK) - DEXSORB Full-Scale 3/29/2026

    A DWTP client in Alaska detected elevated PFAS contamination levels in two groundwater wells supplying drinking water to 85 service connections. PFAS concentrations are provided in Table 1, where combined concentration of EPA PFAS6 was detected at 490 to 810 ppt.

  5. Return Activated Sludge Pumps 3/27/2026

    Return activated sludge pumps are critical to wastewater treatment, maintaining biological balance, ensuring efficiency, and supporting resilient infrastructure amid aging systems and emerging contaminants.

  6. Long-Term Cost Of Pump Oversizing 3/27/2026

    Pump oversizing drives hidden costs through energy waste, reduced reliability, and increased wear, making proper sizing and modern controls critical for long-term efficiency and performance.

  7. Danville Lift Station Remains Clog-Free 1 Year After Pump Installation 3/27/2026

    A next-gen submersible pump eliminated clogging at a high-demand lift station, reducing maintenance, cutting costs, and delivering reliable, clog-free wastewater performance for over a year.

  8. 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.
