Pile cloth media filtration treats wet weather flows in real time, increasing capacity, improving removal efficiency, and helping utilities reduce reliance on limited stormwater storage.

WASTEWATER CASE STUDIES AND WHITEPAPERS

  • The Most Cost Effective Disinfection Alternative For A Wastewater Plant To Meet Regulatory Requirements

    The Valley East Wastewater Treatment Plant (Sudbury, Ontario, Canada) hired an engineering firm to evaluate three disinfection options including chlorination followed by dechlorination, ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation and VigorOx WWT II. Read the full case study to learn more.

  • Smart New Approaches To Wastewater Screen Design

    Depending on the age and design of wastewater infrastructure, it is easy for screening performance at the headworks of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) to get caught between a rock and a hard place. With so many challenges, what can be done to reduce the high risks of performance inefficiency, costly maintenance, or outright equipment failure? Fortunately, next-generation bar screen designs are poised to address these issues.

  • Register Today For The Newterra Webinar: A Unique Approach To The Traditional SBR: The Argos SBR

    We would like to invite you to Register for our upcoming Webinar to discuss how the Argos SBR is expanding options and opportunities for wastewater treatment. Ideal for municipal or industrial applications, the Argos SBR is comprised of the award-winning Aire-O Triton® aerator/mixer and a proven fixed decanter design, along with advanced controls and monitoring systems.

  • PolyBlend M-Series Liquid Polymer Wetting And Activation System

    The 1.5 MGD West Carrollton Wastewater Treatment Plant in West Carrollton, OH came on-line in 1989 and today serves 12,000 area residents. The activated sludge facility produces an average of 200 wet tons/month of sludge that, following belt filter press dewatering, is spread on area farmland by a biosolids management company.

  • Protecting A Sensitive Waterway with Effluent Sewer Collection

    Vero Beach (population 15,220 in 2010) is a small but densely populated city adjacent to the Indian River Lagoon on Florida’s east coast. Many of the city’s approximately 1,500 on-site septic tanks and drainfields were failing, and the excess nitrogen, phosphorus, and bacteria were considered primary contributors of pollution to the watershed.

  • Los Alamos WWTP Gains Turndown Capability And Saves Energy With Hybrid Blowers

    Los Alamos, NM, the former site of topsecret laboratories where government scientists developed the atomic bomb during World War II, is once again a town at the forefront of new technology.

  • Ultrapure Water In Semiconductor Plants

    In the semiconductor industry, ultrapure water usage can be in order of 2 to 4 million gallons a day. The entire ultrapure water treatment process is comprised of two segments: makeup water and a high-purity water loop.

  • Preventing Algal Blooms With A “Pinch Of Sugar”

    Have you ever walked or driven by a lake covered with a thick scum that looks like pea soup? This could be caused by blue-green algae, a cyanobacteria (“cyan” means “blue-green”) that is frequently found in freshwater ponds and lakes. Cyanobacteria are often confused with green algae because both can produce dense mats that may smell bad and hamper activities like swimming and fishing. However, unlike most green algae, blue-green algae can produce cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs). The highly potent toxins they make, called cyanotoxins, can harm people, animals, aquatic ecosystems, the economy, drinking water supplies, property values, and recreational activities.

  • RO Membranes' Protection at Aquapolo Ambiental Water Reuse Project, Brazil

    Discover how Aquapolo Ambiental tackled RO membrane biofouling with HOD™ UV technology, achieving 30-35% longer membrane life, reduced chemical use, and enhanced water reuse efficiency.

  • Jefferson Parish Prevents Odor And Corrosion Issues With BlueInGreen's SDOX-CS Solution

    Officials at the Jefferson Parish Sewerage Department approached the team at Digital Engineering to find a long-term solution for the odor and corrosion issues throughout the East Bank Wastewater Treatment Plant. 

WASTEWATER APPLICATION NOTES

WASTEWATER PRODUCTS

The Fairbanks Nijhuis two-stage horizontal split case pump offers long, reliable service with no maintenance. Designed for general liquid pumping and booster applications.

The Monster Wash Press processes screenings to separate water and organics from the solids. The result is a clean, dry, light and compact discharge which reduces the amount of waste to be dumped, ultimately saving treatment facilities time and money.

Save energy by applying S&N Airoflo's low speed, low HP mixers, with high pumping rates and directional flow

For remote sites with peak populations between 500 and 2,000 people, the newterra PWT-125 Mini Train System offers exceptional capacity and flexibility. The base system for up to 500 people consists of two 40' containerized elements – a discrete distribution/disinfection unit and a treatment unit. The Mini Train design allows up to four (4) treatment units to be added to a single distribution unit, providing potable water treatment for 2,000 people. The system is designed to integrate with containerized or free standing tanks for water storage. The treatment system is available for both groundwater and surface water sources.

A simple, effective solution for dealing with today’s “new sewage,” Integrinex Advanced controls with FloSmart technology featuring integrated architecture that recognizes when a pump is clogging.

The PT2 is a rugged, lab-accurate water quality pocket tester with simple, one-button functionality.
