INDUSTRIAL WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT

GettyImages-1401109426_450_300 The New Imperative For Water Treatment: A Shift From Compliance To Efficiency

As water scarcity and energy costs rise, new ultrafiltration membrane technologies deliver higher flux, longer lifespan, and reduced fouling—turning water treatment from a compliance task into an efficiency opportunity.

WATER AND WASTEWATER SOLUTIONS FOR THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY

  • Importance Of Filtration in Water Treatment For Process Water & Wastewater Reuse

    Filtration is very important for many commercial/industrial process water & wastewater reuse applications. In reality, pumping wastewater from somewhere like a refinery, food/beverage, textile or oil produced water application requires pre-filtration due to high amount of suspended solids in these typical applications. In fact, there are typically several filtration and treatment steps in these applications to ensure that the treated water meets the required discharge or reuse standard. In addition, filtration in water treatment ensures reduced operating cost on downstream polishing water treatment systems.

  • Breakthrough Recyclable Polyimide Membranes Transform Wastewater And High-Salinity Water Treatment

    Researchers have developed polyimide-based membranes for membrane distillation (MD) that overcome three persistent issues in membranes for water treatment and gas separations: the need for pore-forming chemicals that prevent recycling, performance degradation due to pore wetting and fouling, and the inherent trade-off between high water flux and selectivity.

  • Fighting For Florida's Surface-Water Standards

    Late last month, a panel of regulators appointed by Governor Rick Scott narrowly approved the first changes to Florida’s surface-water quality standards since 1992. Marked with adamant support on one side and passionate protest on the other, the sweeping amendment has left questions about how clean Florida’s water will be.

  • Water Management For Fracking Evolves

    To date, the bulk of analysis on the U.S. fracking industry has largely centered on well counts and oil and gas production.

  • Global Crisis And Modern Solutions At The Water-Energy Nexus

    GE Water & Process Technologies and the World Resources Institute (WRI), an independent research organization studying sustainability, jointly produced a white paper called “Water-Energy Nexus: Business Risks and Rewards.” The paper hones in on the shared interest of the two groups, namely the supply of freshwater counted on by the energy industry, which in turn fuels water treatment operations, a relationship that’s known as the “water-energy nexus.”

WATER AND WASTEWATER SOLUTIONS FOR THE FOOD AND BEVERAGE INDUSTRY

  • Feds Take Steps To Regulate Water For Food

    Due to new rules proposed by the FDA, monitoring services and new pumps will likely be shopping-list items for food processors.

  • Advancing Dairy Wastewater Treatment

    To help you select the best wastewater treatment strategy for your dairy processing application, this white paper provides a helpful overview of some of the challenges you will encounter including biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total suspended solids (TSS), nitrogen and phosphorus removal.

  • Pinpointing Accurate Steam Use In Dynamic Industrial Processes

    In commercial brewing — as with other food, chemical, or industrial processes — control over steam heating can have significant influence on process costs and consistent quality in the final product. But its measurement and control can also be impacted by unique circumstances of those applications. Here is how changing just one aspect of steam measurement brought economy and consistency to multiple aspects of a brewer’s overall process.

  • Understanding DE Trap Filtration

    Diatomaceous earth (DE) filters, sometimes called Kieselguhr, pressure leaf or primary filters, are one of the most prevalent filters found in modern breweries. Many beers, pasteurized or not, will pass through a DE filter.

  • Design And Care Of Reverse Osmosis Systems, Part 2: Upstream Equipment

    The success of a new reverse osmosis (RO) membrane system is often directly related to its pretreatment. The previous section of this article discussed RO design issues and introduced how a pilot study should include a study of its probable pretreatment equipment since the pretreatment performance will directly affect the performance of the RO system. However, piloting the upstream processes can be challenging in sizing these components for the pilot RO unit’s low flow rate.

  • Filter Installations Remove Solids From FGD Scrubber Effluent

    Power plants and refineries around the world must manage and treat complex effluent waste streams from the Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) process. Flue gas is generated by the combustion process of fossil and fossil-derived fuels, such as coal, oils, and natural gas in power plants. Petrochemical refineries may generate flue gas from a number of different processes, including Catalytic Cracking, Steam Methane Reforming, and Heaters or Furnaces.

  • Will Water Scarcity Be The Death Of Fossil Fuels?

    Water stress, whether caused by drought, access limitation, or contamination, has been increasingly detrimental for an ever-growing range of industries. Recently, a report by CDP, in collaboration with Planet Tracker, shed light on the significant impact of water insecurity on the financial performance of more than 4,000 companies. Of particular note are those companies in energy or energy-adjacent sectors.
