AVT-news Maintaining And Improving Jersey City Water Infrastructure

Jersey City in New Jersey is undergoing a period of development and growth which has seen its population increase by more than 50,000 people in the last 13 years. To cater for this growth, the Jersey City Municipal Utilities Authority is tasked with maintaining its aging water infrastructure and improving its critical water supply to ensure it can meet the needs of its customers both now and into the future.

WASTEWATER CASE STUDIES AND WHITEPAPERS

  • As Waters Warm, Questions Swirl Around Health Of The Great Barrier Reef

    The Great Barrier Reef — a chain of 2,900 individual, underwater corals comprising the world’s biggest structure made by living organisms — is one of the most visible victims of climate change.

  • Smart Water: Remote Sensing

    Automated metering systems (AMSs) or “smart meters” can provide valuable data for electric and water utilities. Data analytics can be used to improve customer service, boost conservation, monitor the system, and even forecast demand. An ultimate goal might be to eventually monitor everything from streetlight intensity to fire hydrants.

  • White Paper: Water Reuse Strategies: Steel Industry Case Studies

    The steel industry has historically presented challenges for effective water treatment because it is a high water user and the applications may involve high heat, critical noncontact cooling, direct contact cooling, high suspended solids waters, oil and grease contamination, and complicated cascading. By Dave Christophersen, Veolia Water Technologies

  • Are Nanobubbles Really A Big Deal?

    Tiny bubbles — less than 200 nanometers apiece, small enough to fit 5,000 or more side by side in a millimeter — are making a big splash in the venture capital markets, and in the media, too. Nanobubbles can destroy harmful algal blooms, purify contaminated water, rid irrigation systems of biofilm, and perform cleaning feats that are nothing short of miraculous.

  • Royal Environmental Systems And Water Tectonics Design State-Of-The-Art Stormwater Treatment System Located 20 miles east of Seattle,Washington, Redmond is home to 50,000 residents and many high-tech and biomedical companies, including Microsoft. Redmond’s downtown drainage area is dominated by commercial, industrial and roadway areas, with typical surface pavement contaminants such as metals, nutrients and sediments
  • Victor Valley Recovers From Mojave Desert Environmental Catastrophe

    Pushed beyond the limits of its banks, the Mojave River gushed at more than 36-cubic-feet-per-second in the Upper Mojave Narrows. It was an environmental catastrophe and needed attention immediately.

  • Design-Build Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) System — New Harquahala Generating Project

    The New Harquahala Generating Project serves as a power and electrical wholesaler in the Southwestern United States. To fill the need for growing energy consumption in the region, this facility was built to provide power to the area.

  • Integrating MBRs Into Mixed-Use Developments

    Diverse wastewater flows from mixed-use projects strain conventional systems. Learn how advanced biological treatment stabilizes unpredictable loads, ensures compliance, and delivers high-quality water suitable for reuse.

  • Water Main Rupture Puts Florida Community At Risk Of Flooding

    A water main rupture under pressure in Florida required a custom-designed “live line repair” fitting. Engineers quickly deployed, creating a permanent, corrosion-resistant solution and completing repairs in under 10 hours.

  • Dairy Collective Reaps Green Energy And Environmental Benefits With Anaerobic Wastewater Technology

    One of the United States’ newest dairy processing plants features advanced wastewater treatment technology that not only radically improves biomass recovery and effluent quality, but also harnesses green energy from waste streams to drive production processes and reduce its carbon footprint.

WASTEWATER APPLICATION NOTES

WASTEWATER PRODUCTS

Ideal Usage for Utility Pumps: Construction site dewatering, product transfer, emergency standby, sewage transfer, irrigation and farm use.

The Generation 5 Delta Blower offers considerable sound reductions, so expensive measures such as special acoustic hoods are no longer required.

The new generation of Xylem Field Smart Technology (FST) product is an advanced telemetry and cloud based system that allows you to monitor and control your pump from anywhere in the world.  

Developed in 2002, the MRI Hoseless Cable-Vac Sludge Collector removes settled solids throughout the basin, even from the final 2' at the end wall typically left un-collected by other sludge collectors.

The Helixpress® unit is the cost-effective solution for dewatering the screenings collected by any type of screen. It is an all-in-one conveyor, compactor and dewaterer. It utilizes a combination of drainage, compaction and dewatering to reduce weight and volume and ultimately decrease hauling and disposal costs.

The EscaMax® is particularly well suited in situations where excellent separation efficiency is required in deep channels with high water levels. The sturdy EscaMax® screen is able to reliably cope with high amounts of gravel and grit. The two-dimensional screening elements prevent especially long fibres from passing through the screen and thus achieve the maximum separation efficiency.
