Single Landia Pump Savours Its Role For Top Quality Single Malt English Whisky

At Rosemaund Farm Distillery near Hereford, where a new premium single malt English whisky is being produced, a Landia pump is playing a crucial role in the handling of the production site’s wastewater.

ROTEC's Flow Reversal Selected For Advanced Water Reuse Project At Southern California Power Plant

ROTEC USA LLC, a provider of advanced reverse osmosis technologies for municipal and industrial water treatment, today announced that it has been selected to provide advanced water treatment systems for the Imperial Irrigation District (IID) El Centro Generating Station (ECGS) in El Centro, California.

Coordination Among Wastewater Treatment Plants Could Save Rate Payers Money

Wastewater treatment plants in the San Francisco Bay are facing a $10 billion bill to reduce pollution. They could cut that cost nearly in half through coordinated regional infrastructure investments rather than individual plant upgrades, according to new research.

The Bahamas Explores Ocean Thermal Energy For Data Centres And Water Supply As Global OTEC Leads Technical Studies

Global OTEC has been appointed lead technical partner in a consortium with the Oceanic Platform of the Canary Islands (PLOCAN) to study a site for an Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) in cooperation with The Government of The Bahamas. Commissioned by Expertise France and financed by the European Union (EU), the work is implemented under the Euroclima programme as part of the EU's support to the energy sector, recognised as a key sector under the EU's Global Gateway Investment Agenda for the region. The Government of The Bahamas has requested this effort to provide an evidence base for a go or no-go decision on advancing OTEC toward project implementation.

From Single PFAS Molecules To Microplastics

Magnetic nanoparticles can remove forever chemicals from water.

WEFTEC Lab Operations Challenge 2026

Lab technicians rarely get an audience for their work. Accurate testing happens behind the scenes, often under tight deadlines and even tighter regulatory requirements. The WEFTEC Lab Operations Challenge gives that work a stage. Below, we answer the questions most people ask about this event, and why Hach is proud to sponsor it again in 2026.
