WASTEWATER CASE STUDIES AND WHITEPAPERS

  • Wastewater Treatment Trends For A More Efficient Plant

    Efficiency is the name of the game for modern wastewater treatment plants. Unfortunately, many facilities were built decades ago and are becoming increasingly expensive to operate. Therefore, you may be looking for a way to upgrade your wastewater treatment plant to meet the latest standards.

  • Parkson Turnkey Services Allow Customer To Get What They Want

    A wastewater plant in Florida originally had one Parkson Aqua Guard® Self-Cleaning Moving Media Screen in operation for approximately 19 years. When the city expanded, a new headworks plant was built in 2009. At this time, two (2) new screens were purchased from a competitor based on cost through a bid process to contractors.

  • Improve Operational Efficiency And Capital Improvement Program Management

    The City of Grand Rapids, MI sought out a partner to take responsibility for the operation and maintenance of the monitoring network including hardware, software, and data preparation.

  • Headworks® Installs Two Enormous MS Series Bar Screens In India

    Shahad Temghar Water Treatment Plant is located along the Shahad River in Maharashtra, India – just 50 km northeast of Mumbai.

  • Real-Time Wastewater Monitoring: The Power Of Fluorometers

    Real-time wastewater monitoring with fluorometers enables instant contaminant detection, helping treatment plants adjust quickly, prevent pollution, meet regulations, and better protect public health and the environment.

  • Meeting New Effluent Quality Requirements With MBRs

    When the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) issued a new waste discharge requirement, the Nevada County Sanitary District saw that a major upgrade of the existing WWTP's lagoon system would be required. An MBR system was selected due to its capability of meeting new effluent quality using the existing plant footprint and its competitive operating costs.

  • Optimizing Chemical Dosing Reduces Chemical Use While Meeting Effluent TP Limits

    The city of Black River Falls in Wisconsin used chemical treatment with ferric chloride (FeCl3) to achieve their effluent total phosphorus (TP) permit of 1.0 mg/l. Historically, the chemical dosing rate was manually adjusted on a daily basis based on the measured effluent TP concentration. The plant was upgraded with an OSCAR process performance optimizer control system with phosphorus controller, which uses continuous measurement of orthophosphate.

  • Why Ceramic Membranes Are Changing The Marketplace

    Despite their higher upfront cost, ceramic membranes deliver a notable return on investment while providing the same if not better water quality results as polymeric membranes.

  • Underground Utility Markings Help You Dig Safely

    You may not notice them, but the colorful paint marking buried utilities underneath sidewalks and roads is essential to public safety, real estate development, and infrastructure management. 

  • Seeing Through The FOG (Fats, Oils, And Grease)

    A review of different methods and devices for FOG removal, with emphasis on cost control, lowered power profiles, and efficacy. By Douglas D. Sunday, water and wastewater Class A operator and Dr. J.H. Wakefield, consulting analytic chemist and environmental/materials engineer

WASTEWATER APPLICATION NOTES

WASTEWATER PRODUCTS

Siemens’ extensive portfolio includes various flow measurement technologies, such as Coriolis, clamp-on ultrasonic, vortex, and differential pressure meters, catering to a wide range of industrial needs.

OI Analytical’s CNSolution™ 9310 On-line Cyanide Analyzer is designed to measure available cyanide in precious metal leaching solutions by USEPA Method OIAA-1677 and ASTM D 6888-09. Unlike traditional techniques, the gas-diffusion amperometry technique used in these methods is free of interferences from copper and metallic sulfides. The 9310 On-line Cyanide Analyzer displays results in real-time and has a single piece zero-maintenance reference electrode, which simplifies instrument maintenance.

To produce grit with less than 5 % organic content, we have developed our COANDA Grit Washer RoSF 4. This sophisticated grit washer, combines in a single unit, the conventional functions of grit classifying, conveying and dewatering with a highly effective grit washing process.

The Reliant Water Technologies SCOUT Hydro Profiling System is the answer to obtaining clear and concise shallow water survey data quickly and inexpensively. By not only providing a visual hydrographic ‘picture’ of everything underwater, in any shallow body of water, the SCOUT also provides the volume of sludge in the water body (as well as the volume of free water). The ‘picture’ provided is color enhanced in order to provide clear, definitive delineation of variable depths of sludge, or debris, and includes multi-point water depth over-lays.

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.

Storm water retention ponds are becoming common features in urban and new development areas for irrigation water, recreation, flood control, and overall watershed management.
