Biothane’s turnkey project was designed to treat wastewater by providing a series of treatment processes. Pre-treatment consists of a bar screen, influent sump, grit removal and rotary screen to remove debris from the influent stream.
WASTEWATER APPLICATION NOTES
-
Determination Of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons In Seafood
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are a large group of organic compounds found naturally in the environment. PAHs are monitored by the US Environmental Protection Agency due to their carcinogenic characteristics.
-
Best Practices In Moist And Wet Gas Flow
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.
-
Filter Installations Remove Solids From FGD Scrubber Effluent
Power plants and refineries around the world must manage and treat complex effluent waste streams from the Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) process. Flue gas is generated by the combustion process of fossil and fossil-derived fuels, such as coal, oils, and natural gas in power plants. Petrochemical refineries may generate flue gas from a number of different processes, including Catalytic Cracking, Steam Methane Reforming, and Heaters or Furnaces.

Pile Cloth Media Filtration Removes 97% Of Microplastics From Wastewater
Learn about filtering microplastics from industrial wastewater prior to discharge, and how this is one way to effectively reduce the volume of this waste material from entering our surface water.
-
UV Technology Offers Solution For Emerging Water Crisis
Many are turning to UV as an effective barrier to enable the reuse of wastewater, for indirect reuse, and aquifer recharge.
-
How One Wastewater Treatment Plant Saved Time And Money Measuring Turbidity And TSS The wastewater treatment plant of a major corporation is designed for a population capacity of 6 million people and is considered a very large wastewater treatment plant.

Instruments For Environmental Applications
Keeping the water in our lakes, rivers, and streams clean requires monitoring of water quality at many points. Over the years ever increasing environmental concerns and regulations have heightened the need for increased diligence and tighter restrictions on wastewater quality.
LATEST INSIGHTS ON WASTEWATER
-
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.
-
Technology like advanced process control systems can streamline operations, create opportunities to lower costs and emissions, and ensure effluent quality meets the highest standards. Research also indicates that implementing an appropriate control strategy can help reduce N2O emissions.
-
Strategic flow monitoring helps wastewater utilities curb overflows, cut costs, and safeguard public health by turning accurate data into proactive action.
-
When seeking bids for a fair comparison, it’s important to evaluate the total cost of ownership.
-
Researchers have developed polyimide-based membranes for membrane distillation (MD) that overcome three persistent issues in membranes for water treatment and gas separations: the need for pore-forming chemicals that prevent recycling, performance degradation due to pore wetting and fouling, and the inherent trade-off between high water flux and selectivity.
-
As technology improves and becomes more accessible, outdated municipal wastewater systems are fast beginning to show their age. Today, water pumps come in a variety of designs that enable uses that previous generations could only have dreamed of.
