WASTEWATER MEASUREMENT RESOURCES

  • The U.S. water and wastewater analytical instrumentation market is mature and competitive. The market is projected to experience a growth rate of 2.9 percent over the next seven years. The growth is expected to be driven by the need to meet regulatory compliance, outstanding after sales service support, increasing need for automating processes, and the availability of products equipped with smart features.

  • Uncertainty is perhaps one of the words that best defines this crisis. We do not know how long it will last, which is the best way to fight it, or what the “new normality” will really be like.

  • It rains, it pours. And when it pours, our cities produce what is called stormwater runoff. Stormwater runoff is what happens when rain falls on roads, driveways, parking lots, and other paved surfaces that do not allow water to soak into the ground.

  • At manufacturing operations using ultrafiltration systems, the ultrafiltration membranes are used for numerous batches without replacement, using Clean-In-Place (CIP) operations in between batches to maintain filter performance. However, ineffective CIP cycles or long-term fouling or degradation of the filter membrane can result in increased cycle times to move the desired amount of product through the filter, lost yield as the product is unable to permeate the filter, or poor product quality as membrane failure may occur.

  • Discover how a design-build project provided a turnkey solution in quick fashion. 

  • Most people have no idea how critical getting a good sample is, and how hard it is in general to get really good data.  The analytical process for almost anything we test for has so many steps – each of which compounds any deviations or discrepancies made in the previous steps – that it’s vitally important to be as accurate and precise in each step along the way in order to get good, meaningful data in the end.

  • Mekorot, Israel sought to reduce production costs through improved energy efficiency and tighter process control. They leveraged GE Digital's software and automation solutions to automatically monitor and control devices. 

  • When it comes to water quality, water districts are pressured with reducing costs, energy usage, and repairs, all while providing fast and flawless results. This client needed advanced and competitive software to address their planning and management setbacks.

  • Emerging trends signal a new era of agility, ethics, and resilience for water professionals.

  • Like all wastewater treatment facilities, the City of Pendleton WWTRRF faces the daily challenge of maintaining water safety and quality for the city while improving energy consumption and meeting city, state and national regulations. 

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.
