• Gandia Becomes A Smart Water City And Saves 0.5hm3 Of Water/Year

  In 2008, the utility providing this Spanish city’s water supply and the city council decided to phase in a gradual process of digital transformation.

• Next-Level Communications Solves SCADA Problem For City Of St. George

  Water and wastewater treatment facilities around the globe are turning to the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) to help automate and improve the security of their facilities through high performance M2M wireless communications. In fact, there is a suite of Class 1 and Div 2 spread spectrum unlicensed and licensed radios specifically for water/wastewater applications, including high-speed wireless Ethernet, serial, and IO radios. These radios can be easily networked to ensure that facility monitoring and performance data are accurate and delivered in a timely fashion. These solutions can help municipalities design and implement a world-class point to point wireless network for unique facility applications including water and wastewater treatment plant monitoring, pump house control, chemical monitoring and control, SCADA systems, remote video surveillance and security, water flow control, and cathodic protection applications.

• Navigating Through Uncharted Waters, Part Two: How Peter Ng Is Giving Back To His Community

  In Part Two of Navigating Through Uncharted Waters, we caught up with Peter Ng, a Wastewater Technician who continues to help get wastewater samples for Covid research. At the beginning of the pandemic, Ng was tapped to be a Disaster Service Worker for the City and County of San Francisco helping to deliver food to the vulnerable population as well as be a translator to senior citizens. As Ng explains, this was something he was always meant to do.

• Using Historical Performance To Optimize Your Coagulation Control

  Non-intrusive ultrasonic technology provides precise, bi-directional flow measurement without process downtime. By clamping onto the pipe exterior, these systems eliminate maintenance and pressure loss, offering a reliable, data-rich solution for complex water and wastewater monitoring environments.

• The Benefits Of A Venturi Meter

  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.
