EZ-series-phosphorus-analyzer On-Line EZ Series Phosphorus Analyzer Allows Peace Of Mind And Prevents Permit Violations

Real-time nutrient monitoring allows wastewater facilities to detect industrial spikes and prevent permit violations. By utilizing automated, hourly sampling and dual-stream analysis, operators can optimize chemical dosing and maintain consistent effluent quality.

WASTEWATER APPLICATION NOTES

WASTEWATER PRODUCTS

The BRUSHAWAY assembly consists of nylon brushes fitted on a frame and inserted into the filter screen. A simple handle, outside the filter, brushes away particles from the screen surface, and expels them out from the filter.

Aqua-Aerobic offers rental programs for customers that may not have a long-term need for equipment, or where capital budget is limited. 

The Helicon® spiral conveyor is the answer for efficient, reliable automatic transport. The conveyor is frequently used in conjunction with other Hycor® equipment to create a solids management system that conveys the screened solids to washing or dewatering, and ultimately to disposal.

The Series 1900 is designed for restraining push-on bell and spigot AWWA C909 PVC Pipe. The harness consists of two split serrated restraints one on the spigot end and another behind the bell harnessed together by an array of thrust rods. The Restraint harness is rated to the full pressure of the pipe.

Base Mounted Pump Stations are pre-engineered units with an extensive selection of pumps, motors, controls, piping and accessories.

With increasing requirements for enhanced nutrient removal, many wastewater plants are adding anoxic and/or anaerobic tanks in their secondary treatment systems. There are multiple options for enhanced nutrient removal including, but not limited to, the A2O (Anaerobic, Anoxic, Aerobic) process, the UCT or MUCT (Modified University of Cape Town) process and the Bardenpho process.

LATEST INSIGHTS ON WASTEWATER

  • Our infrastructure systems have operated in managed deterioration for decades. And not surprisingly, once they deteriorate badly enough and cross over into active failure, all cost discipline disappears.
  • Every day, food scraps disappear into trash bags, are hauled away, and forgotten. But that waste could be turned into something productive.

  • Currently, water infrastructure is outdated and fragile, prone to breakages and leaks. Reactive approaches to water infrastructure are only implemented after an incident and are more expensive than simple maintenance fixes. Geotechnical Internet of Things (IoT) devices enable water and wastewater industry professionals to identify and address issues before they escalate into catastrophic events.
  • Traditional gravity sewers rely on large-diameter mains, deep trenches, and often multiple lift stations — elements that carry significant capital and restoration costs, particularly in rural or rugged terrain. To improve cost efficiency and sustainability, many municipalities are adopting decentralized collection systems such as Septic Tank Effluent Pump (STEP) systems, Septic Tank Effluent Gravity (STEG) systems, and liquid-only sewers.
  • Aeration control strategies often remain conservative and static. Blowers operate continuously, oxygen levels are maintained near maximum, and airflow rates are rarely adjusted in response to real-time biological demand. The result is widespread over-aeration — a condition that does not improve treatment performance but significantly increases operating costs.
  • Emerging state water reuse regulations are driving adoption of ozone and advanced oxidation, requiring flexible, high-performance systems to meet pathogen, trace organic, and DBP control objectives.
