WOL_key-west_cs_385x250 Key West Resort Utilities Maximizes Reuse And Nutrient Recovery

Water scarcity poses unique challenges to KW Resort Utilities Corp. (KWRU), the utility firm that provides wastewater management, wastewater recovery, and wastewater treatment in the region. KWRU began operation in the late 1960s and has worked hard over the decades to keep up with wastewater needs as population and tourism have boomed, spurred by land reclamation and development. 

WASTEWATER CASE STUDIES AND WHITEPAPERS

WASTEWATER APPLICATION NOTES

WASTEWATER PRODUCTS

A front-clean, front-return, mechanically-cleaned bar screen technology. Utilizes stainless-steel tear-shaped bars with 1/4 inch, 3/8 inch, or 1/2 inch openings.

Microbial contamination of food and beverage products is a potentially catastrophic occurrence resulting in foodborne illness or food spoilage. The same nutritive properties that render cheese and dairy products such a valuable food also provide an ideal growth medium for microbes if contamination occurs.

Total Organic Carbon (TOC) analysis is an effective technique for detecting and measuring the presence of organic contaminants in waters used throughout industrial processes, municipal water uses, and for determining residual concentrations of organic material on the surfaces of equipment used in the manufacture of active pharmaceutical ingredients. By Jeffrey Lane, Steve Skalski, and Gary Engelhart, OI Analytical

Screen and capture stormwater trash, organic matter and sediment, then store it dry to prevent nutrient pollution.

The PASSAVANT® surface brush aerator MAMMUTROTOR® provides a transfer of oxygen into the activated sludge tank and optimal mixing of the activated sludge, ensuring an even distribution of biomass, organics and oxygenated water creating ideal conditions for biological activity.

ClearBlu provides sophisticated wastewater treatment equipment scaled to small to large size craft brewers.  This allows brewers to stage in treatment as it’s required by the municipality, or if you are located in an area without sewer access.  We also provide complete systems in package or pond format.
