WASTEWATER MEASUREMENT RESOURCES

  • With the introduction of new measurement technologies and the myriad of performance claims from sale literature, it’s easy to lose sight of the important elements that an effective flow meter offers no matter what technology is used. Long known for their longevity, reliability, and long term performance, Venturi meters provide the widest variety of measurement options in piped systems for liquids, gas, steam, and mixed media of any metering technology – all while offering the highest degree of traceable accuracy.

  • Denver Water is committed to delivering a safe, reliable water supply to its customers. The water provided to homes and businesses is lead-free, but lead can get into the water as it moves through customer-owned, lead-containing household fixtures, plumbing, and water service lines—the pipe that brings water into the home from the main in the street.

  • Water Online’s “Math Solutions” series, presented by wastewater consultant and trainer Dan Theobald (“Wastewater Dan”), provides an understanding of the sometimes difficult calculations involved in achieving wastewater operator certification.

  • Data generation has exploded in recent years. In fact, 90% of the world’s data has been created in the last two years alone, and estimates predict that the Worldwide Big Data market will double in the next several years.

  • SCADA technology generates excitement because it can tackle some of the water industry's most significant pain points. It complements innovations like IoT and AI, enhancing maintenance efficiency and eliminating downtime. Use these best practices to embrace SCADA and related technologies for a competitive advantage.
  • J.D. Irving, Limited Sawmill Division has invested $70 million in the latest operational equipment as part of their continuous investment in sustainable forest management strategies. In 2015, the company chose VTScada monitoring and control software to replace the aging SCADA systems used in their biomass boiler and trim line processes. Jody Gallant, an Electrical Engineering Technologist for JD Irving describes the some challenges and benefits of implementing a modern industrial SCADA system.

  • Bbanda is a small rural village of about 1,100 people in southern central Uganda, located 45 minutes from the closest town of Mityana. There is no electricity or reliable source of drinking water. But thanks to the work of some engineering students, that’s about to change.

  • Installing or upgrading high-efficiency motors in water management reduces energy consumption and emissions throughout the water management process, from pumping stations to water treatment plants and irrigation systems.
  • To minimize losses and address mounting concerns, the water industry is now adopting advanced sensor and communications solutions designed specifically for “smart” Internet of Things (IoT) water management. In large part, the move toward implementing smart water solutions is being driven by stricter government compliance requirements, the evolution of smart cities, and the need for water conservation.

  • Engineering firms use hydraulic models to help clients understand their distribution systems. This group was able to resolve critical challenges and modernize operations with the latest technology. 

WASTEWATER MEASUREMENT SOLUTIONS

  • XD Spectrophotometers

    The XD 7000 and XD 7500 Spectrophotometers combine a state-of-the-art optical system with ease of use and flexibility for a wide range of water testing applications. 

  • BOD Determination

    The BD 600 is a respirometric system for the determination of Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD). Save time, reduce the potential for errors and easily interpret data to help make process control decisions for your plant.

  • BOD Determination Of Strongly-Loaded Organic Waste Water With The BOD-OxiDirect

    Strongly loaded organic industrial waste water, i.e. from sugar- or paper-factories, need to be pre-treated before determining the BOD value.

  • Determining Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) With Lovibond® OxiDirect

    The Biochemical Oxygen Demand over a testing period of n days (BODn) is precisely defined and associated with experimental standards. It represents the quantity of oxygen aspirated in the course of aerobic breakdown of organic substances by microorganisms.

  • SLIC Traditional SCADA

    SLIC is the first control system that doesn't need a SCADA server, control panel, integrator, or a babysitter.
