WASTEWATER

terminal-island-wedeco Innovative Water Reuse Solutions With Xylem's Advanced Treatment Technology

Transitioning to advanced purification methods like UV-hypochlorite oxidation allows municipalities to secure reliable, local water supplies. These strategies mitigate drought risks and protect coastal environments by transforming wastewater into a high-quality resource for reuse.

WASTEWATER CASE STUDIES AND WHITEPAPERS

WASTEWATER APPLICATION NOTES

WASTEWATER PRODUCTS

A front-clean, front-return, mechanically-cleaned bar screen technology. Utilizes A36 steel with Duperon® standard coating or hot-dipped galvanized; also available in 304 and 316 stainless steel. Available with 2 inch - 4 inch openings

The MD50 COD is a next generation compact, single parameter photometer for the measurement Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD). The MD50 is an advanced successor to the MD100 COD photometer, offering improved accuracy, enhanced user experience, and expanded testing capabilities. 

The PTBT1 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.

The patented Frontline™ drain inlet filters are your first line of defense against industrial pollutants in stormwater runoff. Available as a catch basin insert (CBI) or a trench drain insert (TDI), Frontline provides the best combination of performance and flow of any drain inlet insert on the market. Frontline is top-rated for removal of debris; heavy metals such as zinc, copper & lead; TSS, oil & grease.

The QuEChERS (Quick-Easy-Cheap-Effective-Rugged-Safe) sample extraction method was developed for the determination of pesticide residues in agricultural commodities.

The STRAINPRESS® is a horizontal pipe-shaped coarse material separator which consists of inlet and driving zone, screening and press zone and finally a discharge section with a conical pressure regulating device. The coarse material is separated continuously under pressure and periodical cleaning of the screening zone by backwashing is not required.

LATEST INSIGHTS ON WASTEWATER

  • People around the globe are trying to figure out how to save, conserve, and reuse water in a variety of ways, including reusing treated sewage wastewater and removing valuable salts from seawater. But for all the clean water they may produce, those processes leave behind a type of liquid called brine. I’m working on getting the water out of that potential source, too.
  • As water systems become more circular and complex, understanding and managing the subsurface — the hidden half of the water cycle — is becoming a critical enabler of resilience. This article explores the key trends shaping this new reality, from tackling “forever chemicals” to the water strategies redefining heavy industry.
  • The White House has finalized plans to roll back rules under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), narrowing its focus and limiting what the current administration claims are needless delays for federal approval of water, energy, and other infrastructure plans. For water and wastewater utilities, the changes could speed up permitting for critical projects, although experts warn the tradeoffs could do more harm than good.
  • Traditional sewer systems, while effective, often require significant capital investment, invasive implementation measures, and complex maintenance. As a result, innovative decentralized wastewater solutions are necessary to address the needs of communities or commercial areas in need of wastewater service. One such solution is the liquid-only sewer (LOS) system.
  • While many scientific and technical reports show that floods are becoming larger and more common, reports underestimate how their frequency is changing. Flood sizes get the spotlight, but governments and experts need to also consider their frequency to address implications overlooked by traditional management methods.
  • In areas with storm drains, the water can quickly overwhelm the drains, causing flooding hazards. For this reason, many towns have ordinances dictating how much ground can be covered with impermeable substrates.

On this episode of The Water Online Show, hosts Travis Kennedy and Kevin Westerling interview Fred Gerringer, Brown and Caldwell’s Water Reuse National Practice Leader, about the creation of a first-of-its-kind State Water Reuse Regulatory Guide being developed for the WateReuse Association and its partner organizations.

Take a quick tour of the Blue-White factory in Huntington Beach, California, where skilled employees are busy building chemical dosing pumps, complete metering systems and flow measurement equipment.

The Water Online Show kicks off its new season with an in‑depth discussion on stormwater management, focusing on New York City’s innovative partnership with Arcadis. Guest Shandor Szalay, the National Stormwater Resilience Practice Lead at Arcadis, explains how climate‑driven superstorms and aging urban infrastructure have pushed the city to rethink stormwater strategies.
