WASTEWATER MEASUREMENT RESOURCES

  • 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.

  • Utilities around the world face ever-increasing demand for water as a result of population growth, ongoing urbanization, and rapidly growing economic activity in areas where water supply is already limited.

  • Water industry professionals are experiencing a data deluge. There’s a lot of data out there, gathered from sensors monitoring everything from water quality to pipe bursts — but altogether, it’s too much data divided among too many silos to make sense of what it all means.

  • The CNSolution 9310 analyzer is used in precious metal processing to measure and control cyanide used in the hydrometallurgical leaching of gold and silver from the ore.

  • Let's explore how water utilities can scale smart water solutions through four key pillars: unlocking value, empowering people, implementing innovation, and scaling digitization.
  • Digital transformation of the water sector is continuing to grow in 2019.  Climate change, urban population growth, tightening regulations, aging infrastructure, and water scarcity are some of the many global challenges water utilities will be forced to address in creative and cost-effective ways. To meet these needs, utilities are deploying an array of technologies that significantly alter operations and customer engagement.

  • Significant investments are spent on building and calibrating hydraulic models for planning. Unfortunately, these models often sit isolated from real-time sensor data and provide no value to operations and maintenance divisions. However, we have a solution.

  • Cities that champion infrastructure improvements and embrace connectivity are well on their way to attracting today’s citizens and encouraging growth. Here’s a look at the benefits a smart city provides for its residents, workforce, and visitors.

  • Over the last two decades, the water industry has undergone a revolution that has shaken its business model to the very core. Utilities, which have traditionally been excluded from innovative solutions as a result of being tied into relatively long concession contracts, are now encountering growing demands from consumers and government to become more accountable for their services.

  • Mid-to-large size facilities and campuses inevitably have hundreds of flow instruments to monitor, maintain, and repair. For a reliability engineer, ensuring that all instrumentation meets ISO 9000 or similar standards is a time-consuming responsibility. By Matthew J. Olin, President & CEO, Sierra Instruments, Inc.

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.
