WASTEWATER MEASUREMENT RESOURCES

  • Behind the scenes with Denver Water's industrial controls team that helps send water to the tap.
  • The water/wastewater industry is about to be hit, and in some cases already has been hit, with funding for projects through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL). Monies are starting to flow from the federal government into State Revolving Funds, or SRFs, to assist municipalities with upgrading an aging infrastructure.

  • Read about the potential benefits of innovative technology for water and wastewater that impact both the utility and the customer. 

  • The Municipal Authority of Westmoreland County (MAWC) in New Stanton, Pennsylvania, provides service to more than 130,000 water customers and approximately 27,000 sewer customers. MAWC maintains more than 2,400 miles of water mains, three water treatment plants and eleven wastewater treatment plants. Over the past four years, MAWC has integrated geographic information system (GIS) applications to enhance project workflows and integrate datasets. Previously, while reviewing its construction workflow process, MAWC was frustrated to learn that project status was not being effectively communicated between departments, causing serious delays in inspecting and activating new hydrants.  

  • SPU is forward thinking, with a desire to be more proactive in their pipe inspection rather than reactive with emergency response. Through a concerted effort, SPU developed a strategy for pipe inspection, condition evaluation, risk assessment, capital investment, and implementation planning.

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

  • 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.

  • Extraneous water in the wastewater network is likely to increase as the climate change progresses. Wastewater components can offer key information for water utilities for prioritizing network inspections and renovations, such as CCTV and manhole cover inspections. At the same time, calculating wastewater components out of pumping stations data is a valuable example of how water utilities can extract concrete insights from large data sets.

  • Riverside, CA, had a wealth of data, but in 30 separate systems, and reporting was time-intensive. Their solution was to integrate all real-time and operational data into the PI System, and create dashboards and automated reports for deeper and faster data access. Read the full case study to learn more.

  • The city of Baltimore uses a collection system hydraulic model to address asset management issues and improve sewer, stormwater and flood mitigation. This client was able to resolve critical challenges using the latest modeling software. 

WASTEWATER MEASUREMENT SOLUTIONS

  • 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.

  • TransPort PT900

    What happens when you combine the proven track record of the TransPort® PT878 (TransPort PT900’s powerful predecessor) with the latest technology? You get performance, productivity, and a better user experience. The TransPort is the next evolution, and it’s here to make your job easier than ever.

  • AquaTrans™ AT600

    The AquaTrans AT600 liquid flow ultrasonic transmitter combines state-of-the-art flow measurement capability with a low-cost transmitter package that can be installed right at the process measurement point. It’s designed specifically for water and wastewater applications in full pipes. The all-digital AquaTrans AT600 has no moving parts and requires minimal maintenance.

  • DPS5000 SDI-12 Digital Pressure Sensing Platform

    The DPS5000 SDI-12 from Druck, part of the UNIK5000 family, offers integrated digital electronics to enhance the performance level of the UNIK 5000 Pressure Sensing Platform to levels unmatched by traditional analogue sensors. It uses SDI-12 protocol, over which fully compensated readings of pressure and temperature are sent, as well as control of many functions of the device.

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.
