WASTEWATER TREATMENT RESOURCES

• Trending In Wastewater Treatment: Industrial Vacuum Evaporation Systems

  Sought after in a variety of market sectors for their performance and utility, industrial vacuum evaporation systems are in the midst of a surge. For the unacquainted, this primer explains the reasons why.

• Reuse To The Rescue: Recycling Municipal And Industrial Wastewater For A Sustainable Future

  In recent years, limited water resources combined with the growing demand for freshwater, rapidly changing weather patterns, and environmental concerns have spearheaded water reuse as a leading solution in the battle to secure water resilience.

• Sustainable Infrastructure: A Blueprint For The Wastewater Industry

  How can we seize the Build Back Better infrastructure push of the new Biden Administration to dramatically improve our nation’s wastewater systems? How can we reinvent these systems with a view toward resource management and sustainability? It is time to more fully embrace innovation and resource stewardship, as well as to be more open to awarding private concessions while retaining appropriate oversight and protections for the public interest.

• Advanced Biological Filtration: A Multi-Barrier Approach To Complex Water/Wastewater Contaminant Removal

  Since Flint, Michigan, and other communities brought the issue of water safety to the headlines, even non-water professionals are familiar with common contaminants like lead and arsenic. But there remains some ambiguity around “emerging contaminants” that are now appearing in water supplies, particularly as regulations to mitigate them are under development with no clear guidelines yet available.

• Challenges Surrounding Developing Cannabis-Wastewater Handling And Treatment Best Practices

  With any new and upcoming industry, regulations surrounding product development, market research, and potential regulatory impacts must be evaluated. But what happens when that new industry involves a product that is illegal to produce on a federal level, but legal on a state level? This unusual circumstance dictates a more expansive set of considerations and potential issues for all stakeholders involved.

• Featured Profiles In Brewery Wastewater Success

  Stories of real success with packaged pumping and wastewater treatment systems at breweries are explored, including for regulatory compliance and/or water reuse capabilities. Packaged pumping and treatment systems have helped hundreds of brewers meet their permits for local collection and/or direct surface discharge, while offering minimal land usage, superior ease of operation, and the cost-saving "green" benefits of water reuse capabilities.

• Tunnel Dewatering

  Pablo Garcia, Global Business Development Manager at Sulzer, looks at how tunneling operations can be affected by the choice of pumping equipment used for dewatering.

• Schreiber Foods Cuts Chemical Costs With BlueInGreen's CDOX Solution

  At Schreiber Foods' wastewater treatment plant in Utah, mineral acids had been used for pH control in the past but were discontinued due to safety and handling issues. With an average daily flow of 250,000 gallons, the cheese and yogurt facility struggled to meet discharge permit requirements. Facility owners desired a safer, more cost-effective solution that would provide automatic control over process pH levels. Read the full case study to learn more.

• Del Monte Foods Saves Millions With BlueInGreen's SDOX Solution

  Plant managers at Del Monte Foods in Siloam Springs, Ark. utilized a 14 million gallon facultative lagoon to provide treatment before applying the effluent on 500 acres of land nearby. However, the facultative lagoon was unable to meet the municipal pretreatment permit requirements, resulting in surcharges of $450,000 per month. Read the full case study to learn more. 

• Next-Gen Water Monitoring: Autonomous And Real-Time Results

  Municipal, commercial, and industrial water users all face a common issue — how to monitor the quality of the water they use, dispose of, or distribute in a timely, cost-effective manner.
