WASTEWATER MEASUREMENT RESOURCES

• How The Middle East Is Transforming Its Power And Water Industry

  Global demand for power and water is accelerating — and the Middle East is no exception. A burgeoning population combined with multiple industrial diversification programs is fueling a boom in power and water projects. During the first three quarters of 2017, about US$30 billion of major power contracts and US$20 billion of water projects were awarded across the region. In 2018, the figure is looking more like $60 billion with the two sectors combined.

• Automation 101: Design For Operation

  We hear many paradigms in the design world — design for manufacture, design for assembly, etc. What we don’t often hear is design for operation.

• Flowing Forward: How Technology Is A Necessity For Solving The Water Sector's Growing Challenges

  Modern problems for water utilities, including limited workforce and aging infrastructure, require modern tools for overcoming them.
• Washington County Conservancy District

  The mission for the St. George Water Services Department is to effectively and efficiently manage and optimize the complete water cycle for the city of St. George. 

• Embracing Data-as-a-Service For Optimized And Resilient Utility Operations

  As more water utilities explore digital transformation, DaaS presents a compelling opportunity to modernize operations while minimizing risk.
• Valve Upgrades Reduce The Number Of Corrective Work Orders By 99%

  A water treatment plant was using conventional electric actuators on valves across the facility, including the modulating Filter Effluent applications. A history of actuator problems prompted plant personnel to consider replacements.

• Addressing Environmental Regulations With UVC LEDs

  Global environmental concerns over water and air pollution are leading to new regulations that require real-time monitoring.

• Detecting COVID-19 Early Via Wastewater Surveillance

  Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) is the analysis of wastewater to identify the presence of biologicals or chemicals for the purpose of monitoring public health. It can provide a snapshot of entire communities from one sample. Detecting viral diseases by way of wastewater monitoring is nothing new, it’s been known for decades that viral particles can be detected in human feces. WBE has previously been used to detect the presence of pharmaceutical or industrial waste, drugs, viruses, and potential emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. In Israel, a wastewater surveillance program for monitoring polio outbreaks has been successfully running since 1989.

• Targeting Zero: How Water And Wastewater Utilities Can Achieve Net-Zero Carbon Emissions

  Learn how water and wastewater utilities can use data to find operational efficiencies can both reduce energy costs and reduce carbon emissions.

• Creating More Resilient Communities Through Optimized Drainage Design

  Water is our most valuable resource. Thus, for decades, our government has been concerned with our water systems, particularly with the public safety of clean drinking water and healthy wastewater systems. The latest development in this pursuit is the Drinking Water and Wastewater Infrastructure Act of 2021, section 214 of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), which pertains to improving environmental and public health.
