1. Critical Infrastructure Fails The Way It's Funded 3/17/2026

   Our infrastructure systems have operated in managed deterioration for decades. And not surprisingly, once they deteriorate badly enough and cross over into active failure, all cost discipline disappears.

2. Your Chlorine Sensor Is Lying to You — Here's 65 Days Of Proof 3/17/2026

   The operators at Compton Durville Water Treatment Works thought their chlorine dosing was under control. Their Siemens Depolox membrane sensor showed residuals right at setpoint. The PID loop was doing its job. On paper, everything looked fine. It wasn't. 

3. SIWA MDM: Analytics Foundation For Water Meter Data Management 3/17/2026

   Get a closer look at how SIWA MDM Analytics Foundation transforms utility data into actionable insight.

4. Inside the Furnace: How Thermal Reactivation Is Reshaping Municipal Water Treatment 3/17/2026

   In this episode of the Water Online Show, host Travis Kennedy sits down with Elisa Mayerberger of Calgon Carbon to explore the growing importance of thermal reactivation in water treatment.

5. Water Agitation vs. F.O.G.: How Technology Is Solving A Costly Problem In Lift Stations 3/17/2026

   Wastewater lift stations struggle with F.O.G. buildup, causing maintenance headaches. Continuous water agitation, like Kasco’s HydraForce™, prevents grease accumulation, reduces chemical use, and improves pump efficiency.

6. Mixing It Up: How Active Tank Mixers Help Rehabilitate Aging Water Systems 3/17/2026

   Aging water storage tanks face stratification and stagnation, threatening water quality. Active mixing ensures uniform disinfectant distribution, reduces flushing, and improves system reliability and regulatory compliance.

7. Meter Data Management 101: The Essential Middle Layer That Turns Raw AMI Data Into Trust And Revenue 3/17/2026

   Meter Data Management systems transform raw AMI data into validated insights, enabling accurate billing, leak detection, and operational analytics while helping utilities manage growing data volumes securely and efficiently.

8. A Collaboration That Runs Deep: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers And Port Authority of New York and New Jersey 3/16/2026

   New York City, the cultural and economic power we know today, grew from the waterways that run through it. Over the years, the deepening and widening of the Port of New York and New Jersey allowed ships to bring in goods and foster trade, but maintenance dredging must be performed on a regular basis.
