WASTEWATER MEASUREMENT RESOURCES

  • Explore the improvements made to the Transcend Design Generator to improve user experience. 

  • Radioactive material in the environment often causes public concern or even panic. However, it is very common for wastewater treatment plants to have some radioactive material passing through the system. Radioactive material may occur naturally or through nuclear fission. Iodine-127 and Iodine-131 are the most common Iodine isotopes found in municipal biosolids, because it has a tendency to re-concentrate in the waste stream. This article will further explain the basic background of radioactive Iodine, its use, health risks, and its presence in the wastewater treatment plant.

  • InfoDrainage 2021.6 is the 6th installment of new and improved features being brought to the water industry this year.

  • Let's explore how water utilities can scale smart water solutions through four key pillars: unlocking value, empowering people, implementing innovation, and scaling digitization.
  • Learn how water and wastewater utilities can use data to find operational efficiencies can both reduce energy costs and reduce carbon emissions.

  • 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.

  • Situated on the banks of the Brahmaputra River, Dibrugarh is a major city in Assam, India, and an emerging industrial, educational, and health care center in the region. Despite its riverside location, the town has no centralized potable water supply facility for the 25,391 households, home to 167,733 people. Given the unreliable, inequitable water supply and highly compromised water quality, the government initiated a water infrastructure project to ensure adequate distribution and 24x7 access to clean drinking water. The USD 25 million initiative includes engineering, procurement, and construction of a 220-kilometer integrated water network. DTK Hydronet was hired as the engineering consultant and faced coordination and engineering challenges while working with the contractor and utility, as well as addressing non-revenue water (NRW) concerns.

  • For many, the word “bureau” conquers up images of suit-clad men and women brandishing firearms and badges. But in Philadelphia, employees of another type of bureau are also protecting the public — using science.

  • Treatment plant control systems are more vulnerable to computer hacks than ever before. What should utilities be doing to prepare themselves?

  • We know the importance of pH to biological wastewater treatment, but alkalinity should be considered equally important for its direct correlation to pH.

WASTEWATER MEASUREMENT SOLUTIONS

  • Group 31 Quarter-Turn Compact Rotary Actuators

    Group 31 compact rotary actuators, model 31-M50, include a single analog electronic control module which receives a 4–20 mA or 1–5 V dc input signal and provides a 4–20 mA or 1–5 V dc feedback for position control and indication.

  • Group 75 Compact Rotary Actuators

    These compact rotary actuators were originally designed to control boiler windbox damper applications. Today they are used in numerous ways. Constructed with multiple mounting points makes it flexible to fit into tight areas. Great for controlling small rotary valves and damper applications. The model 75 actuators adapt to challenging heat and space configurations that other actuators cannot accommodate.

  • Multi-Turn Actuator (88-109)

    The Beck 88-109 is a continuous duty, multi-turn actuator designed to provide reliable control of rising stem and non-rising stem gate valves. Additionally, when coupled with a 1/4-turn gearbox, it is an ideal solution for large butterfly and other quarter-turn valves with high torque requirements.

  • Panametrics Achieves Challenging Wastewater Flow Measurement On A Lined Ductile Iron Pipe

    A municipal wastewater plant in North America sought a reliable flow measurement for one of their key wastewater lines. The existing dual-channel ultrasonic flowmeter from a competitor had consistently failed to provide accurate readings.

  • Cleaner Water With Liquid Ai™

    Every time we open a tap, we trust the water is safe to use. It is easy to forget that we only enjoy this luxury because of monitoring systems, tirelessly working in the background and warning water companies of every anomaly. Likewise, wastewater also needs to be continuously monitored to avoid pollution.

WASTEWATER MEASUREMENT VIDEOS

In this episode of The Water Online Show, host Angela Godwin sits down with Mike Saunders from ORENCO to explore how a small Oregon startup founded in a garage grew into an industry leader redefining decentralized wastewater solutions.
