WASTEWATER CASE STUDIES AND WHITEPAPERS

WASTEWATER APPLICATION NOTES

WASTEWATER PRODUCTS

The Septage Receiving System is based on proven Auger Monster® technology, which allows cleaner handling of septage truck waste through separation of solids. The unique combination of grinding, washing and dewatering septage waste can be accomplished in approximately 5 to 15 minutes for a typical septage truck.

For more than 20 years, USP Technologies’ comprehensive biosolids odor and corrosion control solutions have been extremely effective at reducing sulfides and other odor causing compounds in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment systems.

The PTBT4 is a lab-accurate water quality pocket tester that allows you to use your mobile device and the X2 app to measure, store and export data.

HYMAX GRIP®  joins and restrains a wide selection of pipes of different types and diameters, easily and reliably. Due to its patented design, it allows the joining of pipes of the same or different materials and diameters and preventing axial pipe movement.

The TASKMASTER® TITAN® is a unique, high-flow channel grinder with a full-cut design that offers optimal protection for pumps, filter presses and other downstream equipment. This unit’s innovative twin-shaft design features cutter cartridges that intermesh with a second cutter stack with a much larger diameter. The TASKMASTER TITAN is ideal for channel applications where high capacity, unsurpassed grinding performance and reliability are paramount. This unit is part of our full line of wastewater grinders.

LATEST INSIGHTS ON WASTEWATER

  • Einstein once said of compound interest, "He who understands it, earns it. He who doesn't, pays it." The same logic of compounding applies to the organic sediment accumulating on the floor of your drinking water reservoir. The longer you wait to address it, the more exponentially expensive it becomes to fix.
  • 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.
  • Every day, food scraps disappear into trash bags, are hauled away, and forgotten. But that waste could be turned into something productive.

  • Currently, water infrastructure is outdated and fragile, prone to breakages and leaks. Reactive approaches to water infrastructure are only implemented after an incident and are more expensive than simple maintenance fixes. Geotechnical Internet of Things (IoT) devices enable water and wastewater industry professionals to identify and address issues before they escalate into catastrophic events.
  • Traditional gravity sewers rely on large-diameter mains, deep trenches, and often multiple lift stations — elements that carry significant capital and restoration costs, particularly in rural or rugged terrain. To improve cost efficiency and sustainability, many municipalities are adopting decentralized collection systems such as Septic Tank Effluent Pump (STEP) systems, Septic Tank Effluent Gravity (STEG) systems, and liquid-only sewers.
  • Aeration control strategies often remain conservative and static. Blowers operate continuously, oxygen levels are maintained near maximum, and airflow rates are rarely adjusted in response to real-time biological demand. The result is widespread over-aeration — a condition that does not improve treatment performance but significantly increases operating costs.
