uv-disinfection Advances In UV Disinfection For Wastewater Tertiary Treatment In Open Channels

Meeting modern water reuse goals requires moving past legacy disinfection. Advances in UV technology now provide chemical-free, reliable pathogen inactivation for even high-flow, open-channel tertiary treatment.

WASTEWATER CASE STUDIES AND WHITEPAPERS

WASTEWATER APPLICATION NOTES

  • Repair Or Rethink

    The Moundsville Wastewater Treatment Plant in West Virginia chooses not to fix a broken blower unit, but rather to correct an outdated approach. The result is a savings of $50-60K a year in energy costs.

  • 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.

  • Municipal Real-Time Water Quality Monitoring

    We arm municipalities with actionable data necessary to make informed decisions about water quality in their communities

  • Protecting Pumps From Dead Head Conditions

    The C445 motor management relay offers the most configurable protection options in the industry, with features specifically designed to protect critical pumps from costly damages due to dead-head and other underloaded or starved pump conditions.

  • Application Note: Testing Nitrite In Surface Water And Wastewater The Thermo Scientific Orion AQUAfast® AQ3700 Colorimeter comes programmed with methods for testing nutrients. By Thermo Fisher Scientific
  • 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.

  • NEOSEP® Membrane Bioreactor System Simplifies 'Fundamental Necessities' Of MBR

    The NEOSEP® MBR system features Kruger’s uniquely designed K-120C and K-240C flat sheet membrane modules.  The modules offer several innovative design features that enhance ease of installation, operation and maintenance.  This includes an integrated central lifting eye, offering an incredibly well balanced module that makes installation and retrieval a simple and stress-free process.

  • FLEX-TEND® Flexible Expansion Joints, Features And Specifications

    FLEX-TEND® flexible expansion joints are designed to protect structures and pipelines from differential movement whether this movement is earthquake induced or the gradual motion of soil subsidence. This bulletin offers a concise listing and discussion of the important features and materials of the double and single ball assemblies.

  • Dosing Of Sodium Hypochlorite Solution For Drinking Water Disinfection

    A water purveyor was in urgent need of a chemically resistant flow instrumentation with a long life of service that allowed reliable and long-term stable dosing of the sodium hypochlorite solution.

  • Application Bulletin: Reverse Osmosis

    Osmosis is the phenomenon of lower dissolved solids in water passing through a semi-permeable membrane into higher dissolved solids water until a near equilibrium is reached

WASTEWATER PRODUCTS

Hydra-Stop is proud to introduce the Bevel Gear Actuator to our line of solutions for control, now available for purchase. Ideal for shallow bury applications, the Bevel Gear Actuator allows for the operation of horizontal Insta-Valve 250 installations on lines as shallow as 12-18 inches."

The Fold-a-Float® self-deploying segmented float technology is a unique, space saving float that can replace conventional floats on the Aqua-Aerobic Aqua-Jet® 3-15HP surface aerator and the 3-20HP AquaDDM Mixer®. It is ideal for applications with limited access especially for Trihalomethane (THM) removal in potable water.

The OxyStream™ Oxidation Ditch from WesTech Engineering has proven to be the ideal equipment for biological wastewater treatment applications throughout the world. It combines vertically mounted, low-speed surface aerators with an oxidation ditch design to maximize oxygen transfer efficiency while maintaining the greatest flexibility for power turndown. In addition, the OxyStream™ has greater side water depths and fewer required aerators than a conventional brush rotor or disc rotor oxidation ditch. The vertical slow-speed surface aerator eliminates maintenance-prone horizontal shafts, pillow block bearings, and drive units near the water surface. Above all, the OxyStream™ Oxidation Ditch provides energy savings and produces predictable, high-quality effluent.

Brentwood has the ability to provide you with products and solutions that offer safe and effective biological treatment, while also addressing your most complex environmental, cost, and treatment concerns.

The highly scalable newterra WWT-50 Sewage Treatment Mini Train System is designed for rapid mobilization to serve camps of 200 to 800 people. These efficient plants are configured in trains that allow modular expansion and easy redeployment of assets. Each base configuration consists of two 40' containers that provide 50 m3 (13,200 US gal) of treatment capacity – enough for 200 people. Supplementing the base system with one 40' Adder container doubles capacity to 100 m3 for up to 400 people.

The SAF series are automatic filters with a self-cleaning mechanism driven by an electric motor. The SAF filters are designed to work with various types of screens in filtration degrees from 500 to 10 micron

LATEST INSIGHTS ON WASTEWATER

  • By classifying PVDF as a PFAS “forever chemical” and including it under the proposed restriction, the EU has introduced the prospect of a multi-billion-dollar technology shift. While the outcome will depend on the final derogation periods granted, the proposal creates a defined regulatory horizon for PVDF membranes and forces the global water industry to evaluate alternatives.
  • There are three potential options to contain floods with tunnels to direct excess water out of Houston to the coast. As researchers who study disaster resilience, we bring complementary expertise to analyzing this complex discussion. Here are what we see as the key factors for the city to consider.
  • No one knows more than water utilities how changing climate conditions are impacting the challenges and costs of delivering clean drinking water to communities they serve. In a recent episode of The Water Online Show, climate experts Jesse M. Keenan from Tulane University and Edgar Westerhof of Arcadis discussed the issue of resiliency for drinking water and wastewater systems.
  • Wastewater plants are made up of a series of interconnected processes, each one dependent on accurate data. Turbine flow meters can be installed at several stages to provide operators with real-time, trustworthy flow information.
  • "Potential" is in the name. Here's what wastewater managers should know about both the benefits and challenges of ORP as an agent of process control.
  • Researchers warn that California and other states affected by megadroughts — periods of drought lasting 20+ years — will have to accept this as the new normal. That means rethinking the water cycle and finding new, more sustainable water sources.
