WASTEWATER CONTAMINANT REMOVAL RESOURCES

• Iron Nanoparticles Can Help Treat Contaminated Water — Scientists Have Created Them Out Of Expired Supplements

  Researchers from Georgia Tech have developed an eco-friendly method to synthesize iron oxide nanoparticles from expired over-the-counter iron supplements. This approach not only gives value to discarded products but also supports a more sustainable and circular method of production.
• Before You Choose A Wastewater Treatment Technology, Ask These 5 Questions

  When it comes to choosing a wastewater treatment strategy for a specific water issue, facility managers often start by asking themselves what the best technology is for addressing their contaminant. However, there are far more important questions that need to be answered first.
• How Industry Is Solving Its Water Supply Crisis

  The business case for industrial water reuse has fundamentally shifted. Companies once evaluated these systems against environmental goals or regulatory compliance costs. Today, they're measuring them against operational risk and supply security — a calculation that increasingly favors reuse regardless of sustainability credentials.
• Designer Microbes: Can Synthetic Biology Supercharge Wastewater Treatment?

  Exploring the potential of bioengineering as a pathway to pollution remediation.

• Impact Of Real-Time NH3-N Monitoring In Wastewater Treatment Plants

  In this white paper, learn how real-time monitoring of ammonia (NH₃) and nitrogen (N) in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) can be a game-changer for optimizing treatment performance and energy efficiency.

• Algae Can Clean Sewage Without Electricity Or Chemicals — We Put It To The Test

  Large wastewater facilities are designed to remove physical, chemical, and biological contaminants from domestic wastewater or industrial effluent, producing treated water that is safe to discharge into rivers. But they’re expensive and energy-intensive. They’re also difficult to maintain in rural areas where local government doesn’t get much revenue.

• How To Remove Silica From Industrial Wastewater Efficiently

  Silica can secretly wreak havoc in many industrial applications. Addressing this invisible issue can save your equipment. It will also optimize maintenance while mitigating costly downtime from scale deposit buildup.
• Ecological Wastewater Treatment: Nature-Based Solutions For A Cleaner Future

  This article explores what ecological wastewater treatment is, how it works, its benefits over conventional systems, real-world applications, and its potential to lead us toward a more sustainable and water-secure future.

• How Industrial Water Services Are Shaping The Future Of Global Manufacturing

  Water is one of the most essential resources in any industrial setup, and managing it efficiently can mean the difference between success and stagnation. Welcome to the world of industrial water services — a sector that's as critical as it is complex.
• Double Belts, Double Suspenders: How El Paso Is Implementing Direct Potable Reuse

  The city of El Paso, TX, has always known that water is precious. After its public utility, El Paso Water, previously piloted a direct potable reuse (DPR) plant to turn agricultural irrigation wastewater into drinking water, the city is now ready to begin construction of a full-scale, 10-MGD DPR facility.
