How To Execute A Combined Control Strategy For Dissolved Oxygen

Maintaining dissolved oxygen levels by pairing smart controls with multiple blowers is emerging as a desirable method to address airflow requirements. Selecting the proper system and avoiding unnecessary complications are critical to successful implementation.

Water Quality: Critically Important To Countless Industries

To say that the world of water quality is diverse is an understatement of some magnitude. It’s much more than simply diverse. It’s downright complex. Whether your application is pool management, pharmaceutical manufacturing, maintenance of boilers or cooling towers, food production, brewing, printing, desalination, agriculture, aquaculture, wastewater management, or any one of a vast number of other industries, the quality of the water is a make-or-break critical characteristic that determines success or failure.

The Savings Are Blowin' In At Port Washington Wastewater Treatment Plant

The municipal wastewater treatment plant in Port Washington, Wisconsin, is located on the picturesque shore of Lake Michigan, so it’s essential that their plant performs as designed.

3 Reasons To Upgrade Your UNOX™ Wastewater Treatment System

The UNOX system is a high purity oxygen biological system that is used to oxidize the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) in the wastewater. The oxygen used in these systems is usually produced on site by a Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) system.

Ultrasonic And Radar Level Technologies: Bringing Clarity To The Water And Wastewater Market

If your head spins after reading how amazing one level measurement technology is in comparison to another, understanding the key attributes of these technologies and their applicability to specific processes may help to clear the waters.

“Marshing Forward” Despite Uncertainty: How EPA Researchers Are Reframing Approaches To Coastal Climate Adaptation Efforts

Among other functions, salt marshes provide breeding grounds and food sources for coastal wildlife, absorb excess carbon from the atmosphere, filter rainwater, protect coastlines from erosion, help ensure the health of our nation’s fishing economy, and promote ecotourism. With salt marshes becoming increasingly vulnerable, EPA scientists are evaluating both the scientific methodology and management practices behind coastal restoration projects.

Using Supersaturated Dissolved Oxygen To Reduce Costs And Increase Treatment Capacity

Supersaturated dissolved oxygen (SDOX®) can cut aeration-related energy costs in half for a range of applications, including activated sludge systems, oxidation ditches, odor control in collection systems, and more.

Historic Town Remedies FOG Problem

Among the pump stations managed by Branford, CT, is a long-term problematic station located at Burban Street. There were two primary problems at this station: 1) clogging from modern day trash and raggy, stringy materials, and 2) fats, oils, and grease (FOG) from a nearby nursing home and restaurants, which accumulate and float on the water surface, resulting in a horrendous mess.

Aerated Biological Nitrogen Removal

Excess ammonia in receiving waters causes algal blooms that decrease oxygen levels. For this reason, many wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) must limit ammonia in discharge. Mike Rousey, Hach Company

Scrubber Application

This customer supplies district heating and electricity for the region of Sønderborg. For one of their waste applications a MAG meter failed within 6 months, and was successfully replaced with a Panametrics Aquatrans AT600.

Waste Technologies Transform Problems To Profit

Anaerobic digestion processes that radically improve the quality of wastewater while delivering green energy extracted from biological waste streams are emerging as a profitable way for agricultural and food processing industries cope with the twin impact of drought and pollution challenges.

Pikeville, Kentucky Medical Center Leak Found Despite Ambient Noise

Leaks found in 60 psi high density PE pipe by FELL in less than three hours. Acoustic and CCTV failed to find any leaks after more than a year of investigation. Read the full case study to learn more. 

Nitrogen-Reduction Treatment Systems For Long-Term Operations

The need for of nitrogen-reducing wastewater treatment systems has become more common in the past few decades due to various environmental concerns, including eutrophication, oxygen depletion, and toxicity to aquatic organisms in lakes and streams. The addition of nitrogen removal to any wastewater treatment plant, new or existing, typically increases the costs of the project significantly. When evaluating suitable technologies, it becomes critical to properly identify processes that can not only proved the best upfront capital value but also provide the most sustainable long-term functionality.

Process Optimization For Flow Measurement

The Saalfeld-Rudolfstadt Association in Germany must rely on cutting-edge technologies that optimize flow measurement in order to allow for smooth processes and supply 82,000 inhabitants with clean drinking water. 

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.

Achieving A Delicate Balance To Maintain RO Membranes

This application note explores the importance of maintaining a delicate balance in reverse osmosis systems to protect RO membranes.

AquaSBR Sequencing Batch Reactor: Food And Beverage Industry

This application note explores Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR) systems that have been installed worldwide in a variety of applications, ranging from a few gallons per minute (GPM) to thousands of GPM.

Reduce SBR Maintenance Costs With Jet Aeration

Aeration has been a primary method for treating municipal and industrial wastewater for over a century. It is a natural way to reduce biological oxygen demand (BOD) and control odors. In the SBR process, aeration helps foster nitrification by bubbling air through the mixture of wastewater and activated sludge, encouraging the multiplication of aerobic microbes which consume nutrients and convert ammonia into nitrites and nitrates.
