Water and Wastewater Solutions For Industry

  1. Industrial Water Treatment For Inorganic Contaminants: Chemical Treatment Processes 6/1/2016

    Potential water treatment processes for inorganic contaminants can be grouped into three categories: physical, chemical, and biological. This article will describe five chemical treatment technologies that may be considered.

  2. GeoSpray® CMP Culvert Lining Rehab In Cary, NC 1/26/2022

    The town of Cary, North Carolina, is an affluent municipality located southwest of Raleigh. The town is near the center of the Triangle region, a commuter area consisting of three major universities: Duke, UNC and NC State as well as the technology hub located in Research Triangle Park. The housing development of Preston is located adjacent to the Prestonwood Country Club, where housing values range between $300,000 and $1M. Bridle Creek Dr. is the main entrance to the community, and the golf course with Bridle Creek crossing though a triplet of 52”-54” CMP culverts. In 2016, a section of one of these culverts collapsed, creating a sinkhole on the side of the road. The collapse was quickly repaired with a new section of CMP, but the community was concerned that the remaining CMP sections were showing corrosion in the invert and it would be only a matter of time before a more serious collapse occurred.

  3. Developers Beware! Water Lines May Cost More Due To The Tax Cut And Jobs Act — Part 2 6/25/2018

    This is the second post in a two-post series on the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”), with which developers and water companies see the return of a tax policy with negative consequences for development.

  4. A Fouling-Free Filter For Produced Water 10/18/2017

    Hydraulic fracturing is a hot-button issue, but no matter where you land you should agree that more efficient produced water filters will go a long way in improving the practice.

  5. Total Systems Approach To Wastewater Treatment 6/15/2015

    The total systems approach (TSA) to wastewater treatment is focused on offering industrial clients a fully integrated wastewater solution — one that includes all pieces of the puzzle, rather than simply a set of uncoordinated components and systems.

  6. Keys To Improved Quality And Flow Accuracy In Industrial Effluent Applications 8/2/2021

    To ensure regulatory compliance and protect infrastructure, local wastewater utilities are increasingly requiring industrial operations to provide them with quality and flow monitoring information before discharges reach the utility. Industrial companies can be proactive toward this obligation — in turn, saving money and avoiding compliance issues — by collecting the most accurate data in near real-time.

  7. How Can The Food And Beverage Industry Reduce Its Water Usage? 10/29/2021

    Food and beverage production and processing consume massive amounts of water — both in products and as an essential material for various cleaning, cooling, and utility purposes. As climate change and drought threaten existing water sources, businesses and consumers are paying more attention to how industry at large uses it.

  8. Automatic Scraper Strainers Protect Critical Membrane Systems 1/19/2022

    Automated scraper strainers pre-filter water and wastewater to protect fragile membrane systems from damage caused by large, suspended particles, reducing maintenance and replacement costs.

  9. 4 Safety Considerations For Anyone Storing, Handling, or Transporting Substances 3/25/2014
