51. A Water-Native Solution For Renewable Natural Gas CO2 Emissions 9/21/2026
    Capturing and storing that CO2 can offer RNG-producing wastewater treatment plants an additional resource recovery pathway — and revenue stream — through a new technology that integrates carbon capture and storage with water.
52. DEXSORB® Treatment Of Surface Water For Gravity System 9/21/2026

    Discover how a dual-vessel lead-lag media system achieved continuous non-detect levels for target legacy contaminants, treating over 250,000 gallons of surface water to support regulatory compliance and municipal drinking water goals.

53. The True Cost Of Non-Revenue Water: Why Every Utility Should Measure Water Loss 9/21/2026

    Treating water requires significant energy and labor, but unmonitored infrastructure leaks and inaccurate customer meters quietly drain operational budgets. Identifying hidden losses and auditing system measurement protects revenue and optimizes long-term distribution performance.

54. Finding The Project Before The Bid: A Better Workflow For Monitoring Local Water Infrastructure Opportunities 9/21/2026
    For contractors, estimators, suppliers, and service firms working around public water and wastewater infrastructure, the first time a project becomes visible should not be the day a bid package lands in an inbox. By then, the clock is already running.
55. Renting Or Buying Aeration Equipment: A Decision Framework 9/18/2026

    Project duration, available capital, and operational risk can help wastewater facilities determine whether renting or purchasing an aeration blower is the better fit.

56. What Utilities Should Know About School Lead Data 9/18/2026
    Under the Lead and Copper Rule Improvements (LCRI), community water systems will need to identify covered schools and childcare facilities, conduct outreach, and carry out required sampling. Existing state data can provide a useful head start, but utilities should know what they are looking at before relying on it.
57. The Beck Story: Built To Last Since 1936 9/17/2026

    Eliminate recurring equipment replacements and costly emergency downtime. Continuous-duty engineering delivers precise, long-term control under severe industrial conditions, lowering maintenance demands so facility operations remain uninterrupted and efficient year after year.

58. Innovative Uses Of Pile Cloth Media Filtration: Strengthening Primary And Wet Weather Treatment Resilience 9/17/2026

    Pile cloth media filtration is expanding beyond tertiary treatment, helping utilities manage primary treatment and wet weather flows while reducing energy, space, and capital needs.

59. Federal Court Ruling Clears Way For Completion Of Gross Reservoir Expansion Project 9/17/2026

    The Gross Reservoir Expansion Project, more than 20 years in the planning, permitting, and construction process, is now on a straightaway to the finish line.

60. Pretreatment Systems Enable Complete And More Economical PFAS Solutions 9/16/2026
    For operators looking to optimize their PFAS removal systems, controlling the presence of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) offers an approach to minimizing operational costs due to granular activated carbon (GAC) reactivation and ion exchange media change-out.
