Water and Wastewater Solutions For The Power Generation Industry

  1. Design-Build Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) System — New Harquahala Generating Project 3/3/2015

    The New Harquahala Generating Project serves as a power and electrical wholesaler in the Southwestern United States. To fill the need for growing energy consumption in the region, this facility was built to provide power to the area.

  2. Compliance Tips For EPA's New Power Plant Regulations 11/10/2015

    Now that the final rule has been published in the Federal Register, the stage is set for official implementation of the U.S. EPA’s Steam Electric Power Generating Effluent Guidelines on Jan. 4, 2016.

  3. Panametrics Water Flow Meters: Boundary Busting Longevity And Quality 10/10/2024

    Late last millennium, Panametrics installed a model 6068 liquid clamp-on flow meter for the measurement of water in Kinlochleven Hydro Power, a hydroelectric power plant in Scotland, to monitor turbine generator performance.

  4. Cryptocurrency And Water 11/18/2022

    With the meltdown of FTX and the price of Bitcoin sinking to a quarter of its high water mark of over $64,000 in value (now maybe two bit Bitcoin?), I decided to resurrect my 2018 post Is Cryptocurrency Going Down the Drain?...

  5. The Importance Of Clean Water, A Foundation For Green Hydrogen Energy Production 10/17/2022

    As the global economy starts fully integrating other sources of energy in addition to fossil fuel, solar and wind, green hydrogen is starting to gain momentum.

  6. Cooling Tower Crisis: How Hydrogen Peroxide Scrubbed Away The Bacteria Buildup 7/9/2024

    A West coast power plant needed an immediate solution to clean its cooling tower that was fast, cost effective, and did not require removal and manual cleaning of the tower's fill material. 

  7. Changxing Power Plant Debuts The World's First Forward Osmosis-Based Zero Liquid Discharge Application 8/20/2015

    Desalination Technology Transforms 650 m3/day of Abused Industrial Wastewater

  8. Water-As-A-Fuel Market For The Future Of Clean Energy 3/6/2025

    The idea of utilizing water as a fuel source has been speculated by scientists, innovators, and researchers from all over the globe, envisioning a world where renewable, green energy can power the planet.

  9. In-Line Ultrasonic Meters Provide Continuous Measurement For Sample Stations 5/14/2020

    Boilers, cooling towers, and reverse osmosis (RO) systems are some of the most common systems that require monitoring and chemical treatment.  Chemical treatment of boiler systems reduces scale, corrosion, and other mineral deposits. This enables the system to run more efficiently, keep heat transfer rates high and fuel costs down. To determine the proper amount of chemical to be injected into the water stream, samples of key parameters need to be taken. Instrumentation to measure ORP, pH, conductivity, temperature, pressure and flow are deployed to take these measurements.

  10. Pile Cloth Media Filtration For Clean Utilities 4/15/2019

    Cooling towers and boilers consume the most fresh water in the industry, with industrial process waters carrying the balance. Power plants and refineries use more water volume for the cooling process than any other area of the facility. Mining and food and beverage industries consume higher volumes for their processes. Clean water may come from a range of sources, including clarified surface waters, groundwater or properly treated wastewater (reuse) sources.
