16_GettyImages-157400397_450_300 Retrofitting Aging Infrastructure: Seamlessly Integrating Jet Aeration Into Existing Tank Designs

Jet aeration retrofits modernize aging wastewater tanks with minimal downtime, integrating easily into existing basins while delivering long-term reliability, higher oxygen transfer efficiency, and significantly lower lifecycle costs.

WASTEWATER CASE STUDIES AND WHITEPAPERS

  • Finding A Perfect Fit For Mix-And-Match Piping

    Today’s water/wastewater piping options offer numerous advantages in terms of cost, performance, and anticipated service life. Unfortunately, utilities must still deal with what’s already in the ground — steel, cast iron, ductile iron, asbestos cement, plastic, concrete, and even wood. Here are guidelines on making transitions between old and new pipes of varying sizes and materials as smooth as possible.

  • How Food And Beverage Companies Can Get Ahead Of The Water Scarcity Curve

    High-quality water is critical to food and beverage production — both as an ingredient and a process enabler — so the sourcing challenges faced by municipal water systems pose an ongoing threat to the health of the industry. Fortunately, there are a variety of technology options now available to improve water security.

  • Green Stormwater Infrastructure Is Having Its Day

    Not long ago, systems engineered to manage and mitigate stormwater runoff were predominately of the “gray” variety. Today, however, more and more municipalities are embracing green stormwater infrastructure (GSI).  

  • 'You've Come A Long Way, Baby': The Making Of The Modern Day Fire Hydrant

    This article is in support of the Imagine a Day Without Water campaign — a national online movement to raise awareness about the value of water and water infrastructure.

  • Avoiding Unplanned Outages In Water Treatment

    Maintenance professionals within Water and Wastewater Treatment facilities are as busy as ever. To keep up with growing demands on their time, they are always looking for ways to improve the reliability and maintenance requirements within their scope of responsibility.

  • Devastated Community Finds Innovative Wastewater Solution

    The community of Kinglake West was on a waiting list to receive government financing for a new sewer system when, in 2009, a disastrous fire swept through the area. The damage was so extensive that funding for a wastewater collection system was expedited. The new system needed to be up and running as soon as possible, without being an undue financial burden to homeowners.

  • Electroplating 2 (Cr, Ni, Zn, Cu, Cd)

    A California electroplater offers a number of finishes including nickel, EN, chromium, chemfilms, copper, cadmium, and zinc. They formulate most of the plating chemicals used in the plant, including the electroless nickel baths.

  • Improving Water System Performance: A Continuous TOC Measurement Technology To Enhance Real-Time Process Control This article discusses real-time Total Organic Carbon (TOC) tracking in the water purification process and the importance of rapid, continuous, and reliable TOC monitoring for real-time critical water release. Submitted by Mettler-Toledo Thornton
  • Development Of MBR Suitable For Retrofit With Flat Sheet Membrane

    In sewage works of Japan near bay areas, the tightening of restrictions on nitrogen and phosphorus has resulted in greater needs for reconstruction and replacement of infrastructure, to switch from the conventional activated sludge process to the advanced treatment process without newly expanding aeration tanks.

  • Not All Sprockets Are The Same

    There is a common misconception that all sprockets are the same, simply because they have the same number of teeth and run on 720-series chain. There are a number of other features that distinguish between a long-lasting, wear-resistant gear and a sprocket that needs to be replaced after a few years due to wear or failure.

WASTEWATER APPLICATION NOTES

WASTEWATER PRODUCTS

ClearBlu offers economically priced dewatering hoppers with 6 square feet of screen in the 1 yard model.

The AM-TBR was designed to be cost effective to purchase and even more cost effective to maintain. The turbidimeter is modular to make servicing and cleaning quick and easy. The compact sample volume of 30 ml means that you will go through less calibration solution over time.

Whether you’re locating dangerous cross bores or identifying structural defects, ROVVER X SAT II is putting you in the driver’s seat for the most efficient, most dynamic inspection experience possible.

Facility administrators will find the advanced ST100 Series Thermal Mass Air/Gas Flow Meter from Fluid Components International (FCI) helps them improve the accuracy of specialty gas point of use and sub-metering operations to achieve accurate billing in their labs for better cost tracking and control.

Installed under pressure, up to 250 psi, the Insta-Valve 250 increases operator safety, limits environmental impact, and saves up to 100% of the costs related to system shutdown.

ClearBlu installs the most effective winery wastewater systems available. We are a design/build contractor. Utilizing biodigester technology, our capital costs for systems are significantly lower than other systems. Why? Because we are not utilizing municipal wastewater system technology to treat winery waste. They represent two different problems.

Winery waste water contains sugars and grape organics. This narrow profile means that it is easier to treat. Typically engineering firms will spend 10’s or 100’s of thousands of dollars designing systems that are overly complex, very costly to install, difficult to operate and expensive to maintain. By focusing on the content of the waste stream, ClearBlu installs systems with much smaller footprints. If ponds are utilized, less than 24% of the acreage engineers require will be needed. We eliminate chemical usage by eliminating DAF and SAF systems.
