Water and Wastewater Solutions For The Oil and Gas Industry

11. Helping Breweries Cut Natural Gas Costs And Waste Gas Emissions 4/13/2022

    No matter whether consumers choose a pilsner, an ale, or another popular type of beer, there is a critical focus at nearly all breweries today on their production process energy (natural gas) costs and plant environmental compliance (waste gas emissions). Failing to pay attention to the efficiency of these processes at breweries or any other type of food and beverage processing plant can lead to cost competitiveness issues and hefty regulatory fines.

12. Thermal Mass Flow Meters For Greenhouse Gas Emissions Monitoring 8/23/2016

    The U.S. EPA sets national ambient air quality and greenhouse gas emission standards to ensure public health. Thermal mass flow meters deliver a direct reading of mass flow rate of natural gas and other fuel gases — without temperature and pressure compensation — and provide a simple, reliable and cost-effective method for tracking and reporting fuel consumption.

13. Assessing Key Unconventional Shale Wastewater Trends And Opportunities 2/24/2014

    The shale-gas boom could make water the most important commodity product of the 21st century.

14. Recycling Wastewater from Oil And Gas Wells Poses Challenges 11/12/2015

    Each year, the oil and gas industry produces more than 800 billion gallons of wastewater. Coupling the massive volumes of wastewater generated over the life of the well and the millions of gallons of water needed to hydraulically fracture each well, it’s easy to see that oil and gas exploration and production is just as much a water issue as it is an energy issue.

15. EPA-New Mexico Wastewater Report Is A Conversation Starter, Not The Final Word 1/4/2019

    When it comes to answering questions about whether the oil and gas industry’s wastewater can be safely reused for other purposes, like food crops, livestock, or even drinking water, there are a number of other serious factors to be considered.

16. FEDI System Is Key To Long-Term Success Of Plant's Oil Refining Process 5/19/2016

    Petrogas LLP, one of the world’s largest oil rehabilitation companies, required demineralized water for a new boiler component to its Turkmenistan refinery.

17. Predicting The Worldwide Impact Of Water Scarcity On The Energy Sector 9/26/2014

    As water is stretched and regulations around it tightened, the energy industry feels the burden. This can result in everything from reduced operations and higher costs for consumers to,in extreme cases, blackouts and gas and electricity shortages.

18. Optimizing RO-Membrane Performance In Produced-Water Applications 12/15/2020

    Here are several important considerations for getting maximum value from produced-water RO treatments at minimal total lifecycle costs.

19. Thermal Flow Meters Help Electric Power Plants Keep Their Cool With Hydrogen Gas 12/20/2021

    In all electric power generation plants (gas, solar, coal or nuclear), the fuel source of choice heats a large boiler, which creates steam that drives turbine blades to rotate. The turbine shaft in turn spins magnets inside the generator, which induces an electrical current in a coil of wires. It’s a high-temperature process both in terms of the boilers and steam, but also at the back end of the process where the electric current generates a large amount of heat that must be managed in order to keep the generator’s wire coils cool enough to avoid degradation or failure. Depending on the MVA size of the generator, hydrogen (H2), air or water is typically used to provide cooling.

20. New Hampshire Puts $350 Million To Work From A Successful Lawsuit Over MTBE Contamination 1/25/2022

    From cleaner water to infrastructure upgrades, good stories are easy to find after the state of New Hampshire set out to hold polluters accountable for contaminating groundwater with methyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE), a gasoline additive now banned or limited in several states. Through private well testing, watershed protection and new water facilities, the people of the Granite State are turning the tide on water contamination and restoring the safety and reliability of their drinking water supplies thanks to bold action to make sure polluters pay for damage.
