WASTEWATER DISINFECTION RESOURCES

• Xylem Helps South Carolina Utility Eliminate Taste And Odor Issues In Drinking Water

  Advanced oxidation treatment system and water treatment plant upgrade save money.

• UV Treatment System Fills The Bill For Water Reuse

  Small city selects full-featured and low maintenance UV treatment for its water reuse system that easily complies with demanding California Title 22 Regulations.

• 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.

• How To Choose A UV System For Water Reuse In Your Facility

  Water reuse is, and will continue to be, one of the biggest considerations for companies all over the world in the battle against water scarcity. By reusing process water, grey water, and wastewater, buildings and facilities will reduce their demand for raw water from surface and groundwater sources and reduce the associated costs of supplying raw water and treating raw water before use. One of the treatment methods for accomplishing this is UV disinfection.

• Aging UV System Gets Replaced, New UV System Withstands Extreme Flooding Event (Case Study)

  The city of Orange in Orange County, Texas, is located about 100 miles east of Houston, Texas, and approximately 30 miles due north of the Gulf of Mexico. It is the state’s easternmost city and home to the Orange Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP). Located along the Sabine River, this municipal wastewater treatment plant with a peak capacity of 24 MGD serves 18,000 residents and comprises of the following unit processes: bar screens, grit removal, primary treatment, trickling filter followed by sedimentation and finally, UV disinfection. The Sabine River is 510 miles long and in its lower course, empties into Sabine Lake, which is an estuary of the Gulf of Mexico.

• Peracetic Acid: An Effective Wastewater Disinfectant

  Peracetic acid (PAA) is one of the most versatile and widely used disinfectants on the market. PAA has proven to be an excellent sanitizer and disinfectant in the food, beverage, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and agriculture industries for industrial water treatment, as well as an excellent disinfectant for use in the wastewater treatment industry.

• Hypochlorite Bleaches Market Continues To Thrive On The Expanding Water Treatment Sector

  An inherent vertical of the global specialty chemicals space, hypochlorite bleaches market has been observing remarkable popularity of late. With rising incidences of infectious illnesses on a global scale, the demand for disinfectants, bleaching, and sanitization products is likely to accelerate. Hypochlorite bleaches are popular disinfection products with the ability to terminate a vast array of disease-causing bacteria, fungi, viruses, and fungi, provided they are used with adequate precautionary measures and adhere to specific usage guidelines.

• Analyzing Water Quality Parameters When Choosing AOP Systems For Water Treatment

  In water and wastewater treatment, chemistry is king. Treatment options are evaluated depending on the quality of water to be treated and the treatment application. Treatment systems including AOP systems, are designed to specifically target certain contaminants and remove or reduce them from the water. This takes places through the power of chemical reactions. Even biological treatments involve chemistry at their core.

• Kansas Wastewater Treatment Plant Makes A Long-Overdue UV System Upgrade (Case Study)

  The UV disinfection system at the Plant 20 Wastewater Treatment Plant was installed in 2002, but over the years staff continued to struggle with PLC and controls-related issues, ballast failures, and water level management. An overhead crane was needed to operate the water level management device, and water level fluctuations of 12” were common, which contributed to an increase in fouling on the quartz sleeves.

• What Is The Best Key Performance Indicator To Evaluate The Efficiency Of Your AOP System?

  You’ve decided on a wastewater treatment system integrating an AOP system process. Well, now you’re going to need a way to evaluate your system’s performance. While it may seem to run perfectly fine, it’s difficult to really gauge how efficiently the process is running at a glance, especially an advanced oxidation process as it is typically focused on removing micropollutants from a water source.
