  1. Beyond The Concrete: How Packaged Headworks Solve Modern Wastewater Challenges 9/17/2025

    Packaged headworks systems provide flexible, high-quality screening for wastewater applications, offering fast installation, modular design, and low maintenance—ideal for temporary projects, small facilities, or specialized industrial sites.

  2. Circularity And Risk Management In Semiconductor Manufacturing 9/17/2025
    Reclaimed water from semiconductor fabs may serve non-process users or even re-enter production via ultrapure water (UPW) recycling to reduce incoming water demand. But what happens when things go wrong? If the UPW system cannot handle variations in reclaimed water quality, costly treatment measures or quality failures ensue.
  3. PFAS Removal System Proven Effective In Removing Both Long And Short Chain PFAS 9/16/2025

    A new system removed all nine PFAS compounds from a municipality's water to non-detect levels in a single pass. Unlike traditional methods, it addresses both long- and short-chain PFAS while generating minimal waste.

  4. AEC System Proven Effective For Chloride Removal 9/16/2025

    In two bench-scale tests, a new technology effectively removed up to 99% of chlorides and 97% of total dissolved solids in a single pass. This solution offers a commercially viable alternative to traditional treatment methods.

  5. AEC PFAS Removal System Reduces PFAS Contamination In New Jersey 9/16/2025

    This case study demonstrates the effectiveness of a new technology for removing PFAS from well water to below the EPA’s detection limits.

  6. Water Tank Helps Solve Colorado Community's Water Woes 9/15/2025

    Many Colorado communities are wrestling with an ongoing water crisis. The problems are extensive — climate change, drought and increased demand and other factors have played a role in severe shortages, which have challenged residents since the turn of the century.

  7. Droughts Don't Just Dry Up Water — They Drain Livelihoods And Weaken Local Economies 9/15/2025
    Droughts hit utilities and agriculture hardest. Shrinking water supplies wilt crops and strain water providers. But the impact extends far beyond them.
  8. New Monochloramine Sensor Technology Measures Free Chlorine And Total Chlorine On The Same Sensor 9/12/2025

    Traditional chloramine monitoring methods have drawbacks that complicate water treatment. A new sensor can measure multiple parameters, offering operators better process control.

  9. How Can We Create A More Effective Densified Sludge? 9/11/2025

    True densified sludge, achieved with time-based batch controls, improves settling, increases capacity, and enhances nutrient removal—delivering a compact, efficient, and cost-effective alternative to conventional activated sludge systems.

  10. Advancing Wastewater Treatment Through Specialized Bioaugmentation Solutions 9/11/2025

    Read about how new anaerobic treatment products address critical challenges in digester performance and biogas production.
