WASTEWATER MEASUREMENT RESOURCES

• Cyanide Analysis Of Wastewater Samples From FCC And Hydrocracking Operations

  Fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) is a major unit operation in refineries around the world. FCC is used to convert lowvalue, high molecular weight feedstocks such as shale oil, tar sands oil, and coker gas oils into lighter, high-value products by “cracking” C-C bonds.

• Water Utilities Become Smarter In Tackling Scarcity

  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.

• Math Solutions: Flow Velocity Calculations

  Flow velocity is defined in fluid dynamics as the specific distance (feet, yards, or miles) fluids such as water and wastewater travel in an exact period of time including seconds, minutes, or hours. In managing your water/wastewater, applying this tool can be very useful.

• Pride And Prejudice: A Philadelphia (Water Department) Story

  Recently, I had the opportunity to tour a unique and innovative facility, the Bureau of Lab Services (BLS), the “water quality heartbeat of the Philadelphia Water Department” (PWD), as described by BLS director Gary Burlingame.

• Creating Stability For The Energy Revolution Takes Ability

  ABB provides an extensive selection of proven measurement and analytical products and solutions for power generation industry applications.

• Betting On Biogas: A Wastewater Plant's Journey

  The Lancaster Area Sewer Authority’s (LASA) recent $26.8 million upgrade to its lone wastewater treatment facility promises to reduce the plant’s environmental footprint and save costs by emphasizing energy efficiency and allowing for biosolids reuse.

• A Day In The Life With Predictive Control

  In water treatment, a lot of our daily decisions depend on variables that are constantly changing. What the weather is like, whether a pump is out of service and, perhaps most importantly, the characteristics of the influent waters.

• Optimization Reveals Operational Cost Reductions By Up To 10% Per Year For Cartagena, Colombia

  In 2020 SUEZ initiated a project called SPOT 2023 focused on reducing operational costs with in SUEZ-operated utilities across the world Optimizer was identified as a viable tool that could potentially help to achieve the objective of this project. To investigate this further, Optimatics and SUEZ ran a pilot project study, using the water distribution network in Cartagena, Colombia.

• Bold 2016 Predictions For Industrial IoT

  FreeWave Technologies sees the Internet of Things pushing the bounds of possibility, disrupting traditional business models.

• The Zen Of Smart Pressure Management: Calming Water Distribution Networks

  Over recent years, water companies around the world have enhanced their ability to control the pressure of water in their distribution networks to improve customer service and achieve environmental savings.
