WASTEWATER CASE STUDIES AND WHITEPAPERS

  • Auburn University Aerator Test Results

    The DO2E Aerator differs from its competitors in several key areas. Our system is equipped with a patented mixing chamber and air manifold system that no other system has.

  • When To Consider An Alternative To Thermal Dispersion Meters

    Maintaining a firm grip on blower output within digesters at wastewater treatment plants is the key to stable dissolved oxygen levels that support an optimal biological cycle. However, the most common type of device used to measure aeration in the activated sludge process — thermal dispersion flow meters — is not always the best fit. The good news is that wastewater plant operators have multiple alternatives.

  • The Importance Of Pilot Testing Capital Investments For Wastewater Treatment Plants

    By providing valuable data and insights, pilot tests enable facilities to make informed decisions, optimize their operations, and mitigate risks associated with new technologies.

  • The Process Of Dewatering Construction Sites Explained

    This article will introduce the importance of construction dewatering, various dewatering methods, site preparation, and dewatering discharge options.

  • Precision Agriculture Requires Precision Measurement

    Devices ensure precision fertilizer application while reducing air and water quality issues.

  • Crusher Takes Its Lumps, Minimizes Elbow Grease

    CCP, Inc. in West Paterson, N.J. makes over 1,000 product formulations under private labels for the cosmetics industry, using materials such as persulfates, alkali silicates, phosphates, sodium chloride, and magnesium chloride.

  • City Validates Innovative Reuse Treatment Options Without RO

    Hollywood, Florida’s 55.5 MGD Southern Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant (SRWWTP) treats wastewater from Hollywood and six neighboring municipalities in the southern region of Broward County. Florida’s outfall rule requires the city to begin a process to largely eliminate the use of its ocean outfall and implement 20.4 MGD of additional reuse on an annual basis.

  • Wastewater Treatment Efficiency: Roles of Oil-Free Blower Technology

    Wastewater treatment plants face the ongoing challenge of efficiently processing wastewater from various sources, including residential, commercial, and industrial sectors, to mitigate pollution and safeguard environmental health.

  • Overcoming Space Constraints For An Accurate Flow Measurement

    Accurate and reliable flow measurement is critical to many water treatment and distribution applications. However, this can be a dicey proposition because most metering solutions require a set amount of straight pipe runs, before and after the device, to ensure accuracy. To address these and other related issues, an innovative solution has emerged.

  • Be There Without Being There – SITRANS Store IQ

    After years of relying on an inflexible tracking process, A.P. Nonweiler introduced cloud-based remote monitoring technology to increase inventory transparency, save valuable man-hours, and minimize the risk of costly shutdowns.

WASTEWATER APPLICATION NOTES

WASTEWATER PRODUCTS

Meeting the demand for clean water has never been more challenging. Communities around the world are facing a growing water stress – an insufficient supply, in terms of water quality or water quantity – and often both. Many are turning to potable reuse and drinking water remediation to meet these demands. The TrojanUVFlex®AOP can be part of the solution. This UV advanced oxidation system destroys a range of chemical contaminants while simultaneously providing final treatment, helping municipalities relying on lower quality water sources to continue producing high-quality potable drinking water.

The OPTIFLUX 2100 is an electromagnetic flowmeter (EMF) for standard water and wastewater applications. It is the ideal solution for all general flow applications where reliable flow measurement with sufficient yet not extremely high accuracy is required. Installation in measurement chambers subject to (constant) flooding is possible with the remote IP68 / NEMA 6P rated version.

The In-Line Stormceptor, the premier stormwater management system, is our most commonly installed model. The In-Line unit is available in eight different unit sizes, ranging from 900 to 7200 gallon storage capacities. Each unit is constructed from precast concrete components and a patented fiberglass insert thus providing a quality stormwater solution.

At Brentwood, trickling filters are often referred to as the “biological treatment workhorse.” By optimizing surface area in a given volume and maintaining the structural integrity required for deep towers, Brentwood media provides an ideal environment for microorganism growth.

IFAS (Integrated Film Activated Sludge) is an economical solution for the upgrade and expansion of existing activated sludge systems. IFAS is particularly suitable to plants where additional aerations basins cannot be accommodated.

Uniquely specialized to be the most adept of its kind, this colorimetric analyzer is engineered at the intersection of precision and economy. Every detail has been designed to perfect performance and user experience.

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.
