Water and Wastewater Solutions For Industry

  1. Overcoming Obstacles To Increase Wastewater Capacity 4/27/2020

    It’s a scenario that is becoming more common at food and beverage facilities. The introduction of a new product to market, or a boom in sales of an existing product, prompts management to increase production capacity. While there is plenty of space for production equipment, the corresponding need for additional wastewater treatment capacity may not be readily accommodated.

  2. Specialist Steel Manufacturer Achieves Savings By Using Automatic Self-Cleaning Filters 5/23/2022

    A steel mill was struggling with general water quality and had a number of issues in some parts of the mill where spray nozzles were continually clogging. Read the full case study to see Amiad's solution.

  3. Scientists Identify Opportunities To Better Understand Oilfield Wastewater 4/24/2019

    Collaborative research is a critical element for identifying unforeseen risks associated with using the oil industry’s wastewater outside the oilfield. That’s the recommendation of a new peer-reviewed paper accepted this week in the Journal of Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management (IEAM).

  4. Extreme Paper Mill Makeover: Epoxy Coatings Edition 1/28/2014

    When Resolute Forest Products was determining a solution for rehabilitation and protection of their 50,000 square foot concrete clarifier damaged from mild chemical attack and abrasion from their pulping process they contacted MBI Corexcel, a local corrosion-resistant specialized contractor, for assistance. General Manager - Pierre Fauteux - called Solhydroc, a long tenured distributor of Sauereisen, Inc (USA) products for assistance. By Gregory M. Severyn, Business Development Manager, Sauereisen

  5. California Is Not Running Out Of Water, It Is Running Out Of Cheap Water 5/15/2015

    The ongoing water crisis in California has generated some dire predictions about the state's future. But California isn’t running out of water. It’s running out of cheap water.

  6. Horticulture And EC Testing 10/29/2021

    Modern growing practices include scientific evaluations of soil, water, fertilizers, diseases, etc. While some tests are best performed by a laboratory, others can be easily conducted on location, saving time and money.

  7. Slashing Recycled Ammonia Loads From Dewatering Sidestreams 12/9/2019

    Recycling is generally considered a positive thing, except when the sidestream discharge from the dewatering of anaerobic digested sludge can recycle up to 40 percent of the total nitrogen or ammonia load in the original flow back to the head of the wastewater treatment stream. Deammonification technology using anaerobic ammonium oxidation/anammox bacteria offers a cost-effective way to break that vicious cycle and meet regulatory discharge limits.

  8. EPA Providing Guidance For Drinking Water After Radiological Emergency 1/17/2017

    What would happen if there was an emergency in the U.S. that caused radioactive material to contaminate drinking water supplies? What steps could your utilities and government take?

  9. Water Intelligence For Controlled-Environment Agriculture Systems (CEA) 7/8/2021

    The average U.S. farm spends between $300 and $1,000 per acre on all of the equipment and inputs needed to grow crops in an openfield system. For a vertical farming system, this cost commonly reaches millions of dollars per shelf acre equivalent.

  10. Top 10 Technologies From WEFTEC 2016 10/25/2016

    300,000 square feet. That was the size of the tradeshow floor at WEFTEC, the world's largest annual water quality exhibition. I didn't see every technology showcased last month in New Orleans (over a thousand exhibitors were on hand), but here’s a “best of” list from the many that I came across — a snapshot of various technologies that stood out from the masses, exceptional for their level of innovation and potential for industry impact.
