CONTAMINANT REMOVAL RESOURCES

• Electrocoagulation Unlocked

  Despite electrocoagulation's demonstrated effectiveness, developing a reliable, low maintenance reactor with sufficient water processing volume has proven to be a significant engineering challenge.

• Custom Tank Designs That Actively Manage PFAS Mass Transfer Zone (MTZ) — And Why It Matters More Than Ever

  As utilities prepare for the pending 4-ppt PFAS drinking water MCL, many are discovering that legacy lead/lag designs—workhorses for decades when treating contaminants in the ppm and ppb range—simply are not optimized for the parts per trillion-level (ppt) precision PFAS demands.

• Ion Exchange (IX) Systems

  Ion exchange (IX) is a tried-and-true method of removing metals and other inorganic compounds from water. Arsenic, cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, nickel, selenium, radionuclides, and zinc are just a few examples of the compounds that our ion exchange systems have removed from water.
• Ozone And PFAS: The Overlooked Tool In A National Water Crisis

  Ozone is a vital pre-treatment for PFAS mitigation. It oxidizes precursors and co-contaminants, significantly extending the service life of downstream GAC and membrane systems.

• Ozone Vs. UV-AOP: Choosing The Right Path For Advanced Water Treatment

  Ozone and UV-AOP each offer powerful contaminant removal for drinking water, wastewater, and reuse applications. Their unique strengths—and potential synergy—help utilities meet diverse treatment goals efficiently.

• AEC System Proven Effective For Chloride Removal

  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.

• What Are Legionella Log Books And Why Are They Important?

  Implementing and managing a Legionella control regime can sometimes seem daunting and complex. Invariably, a lot of resources, time, and effort are needed to achieve the required standard and provide assurance to senior management and auditors that controls are effective and those that are not are being managed and rectified appropriately.
• PFAS Policy In 2025: Why It's Time To Go Beyond Remediation

  The most common techniques for disposing of PFAS may no longer be good enough.
• 5 Misconceptions About PFAS Removal Technologies

  This article will explore five common misconceptions about GAC and IX technologies for PFAS removal, helping utilities choose effective, site-specific treatment strategies for contaminated drinking water.

• The Uneven Fight Against PFAS In Rural vs. Urban Water Systems

  Drinking water systems across America face a mounting PFAS threat with starkly different capacities to respond. Large urban utilities typically have ample resources to detect and remove these persistent chemicals from water supplies, while small rural systems operate with tight budgets, skeleton crews, and minimal technical support.
