The City of Durham, NC, completed a comprehensive wastewater master plan that evaluated different treatment techniques for meeting strict total nitrogen (TN) limits at the South Durham Water Reclamation Facility (SDWRF).

Discover how investing in scalable, adaptive systems now ensures resilience not just for today’s disasters but for the challenges ahead.

The city of Auburn, AL has two wastewater treatment facilities – the Northside Water Pollution Control Facility and the H.C. Morgan Water Pollution Control Facility. In 2012, the H.C. Morgan facility was upgraded, and treatment was converted from chlorine to UV. This case study will provide you with details about the selection process, why our TrojanUVSigna™ was chosen, and how we helped simplified the conversion from chlorine.

Driven by compliance with more stringent water treatment standards, the Fond du Lac Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) leveraged the upgrade opportunity to improve beyond limiting ammonia effluent levels. The plant improved energy fficiency, reduced maintenance and operating costs, and eliminated bypasses into Lake Winnebago during high rainfall.

By understanding the types of substances and processes that can negatively impact aeration performance, operators can ensure that their system works as intended.

There are a number of point level approaches to measuring the interface between water and oil for water dump control in the oil and gas industry. However, each has disadvantages — manual methods introduce human error, conductivity switches are rendered inaccurate by buildup, and float switches are susceptible to wear and tear. This white paper introduces capacitance level switches as an accurate and reliable alternative for water/oil interface detection.

The Suffolk County Department of Public Works tested the effectiveness and cost-efficiency of PRI-TECH® in controlling odors at a wastewater treatment plant. The technology successfully treated odors and reduced operating costs.

Glendale Heights Wastewater Treatment Plant discharges treated water to the East Branch of the DuPage River in Illinois.

With so many different safety concerns — government-mandated or self-imposed — municipal and industrial wastewater treatment operators have a lot on their plates. Maintaining aerators used in open-basin treatment applications is just one source of those safety concerns. That is why a new approach to safeguarding worker well-being in the process of aerator maintenance activities is worth a closer look.

Aeration has been a primary method for treating municipal and industrial wastewater for over a century. It is a natural way to reduce biological oxygen demand (BOD) and control odors. In the SBR process, aeration helps foster nitrification by bubbling air through the mixture of wastewater and activated sludge, encouraging the multiplication of aerobic microbes which consume nutrients and convert ammonia into nitrites and nitrates.

Flex-Tend flexible expansion joints have a proven record of providing protection for pipelines subject to subtle or sudden movement. As with all products used in the water and wastewater industry, protection is optimized with the selection of the proper assembly incorporated into a sound design. This paper is intended to provide assistance in both of these areas.

Pulsafeeder has secured a significant order for its NextStep series of stepper motor-driven metering pumps, specifically for use in advanced Reverse Osmosis (RO) applications. This deployment underscores the growing demand for precision chemical dosing in high-performance water treatment systems. The order includes NextStep NS1 and NS9 models, each selected for their unique capabilities in high-pressure and low-pressure RO environments.

The Wet Gas MASSter sensor is for use in applications that have a high level of moisture or condensation present in the gas flow stream that cannot otherwise be removed.

Selecting the correct accessories will maximize cleaning while minimizing water use, tank refills, labor, and headaches.

Clean-in-Place (CIP) systems are critical for industries where hygiene and contamination control are mandatory—such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and specialty chemical manufacturing. These systems automate cleaning through validated, programmed steps that ensure compliance with stringent safety and quality standards. This application note explores the challenges of CIP operations and demonstrates how Pulsafeeder’s NextStep pump technology addresses these challenges with precision, reliability, and cost efficiency.

There are several basic methods for reducing harmonic voltage and current distortion from nonlinear distribution loads such as adjustable frequency drives (AFDs). Following is a description of each method, along with each method’s advantages and disadvantages.

Any process plant constantly generates a high volume of status data. Today, this data can be extracted from the plant, stored, analyzed, and prepared to meet operator needs and lower marginal costs.

Proper rinsing is one of the most important steps in quality manufacturing or metal finishing. Plenty of low cost, good quality water for rinsing has been available in the past, so rinse water conservation has been largely ignored.

We arm municipalities with actionable data necessary to make informed decisions about water quality in their communities
