Guidelines For Biocide Performance Assessment Using 2nd Generation ATP

The following are guidelines for execution of biocide performance studies (or ‘kill studies’) on industrial process samples such as oilfield process waters, pulp and paper process waters, metalworking samples, fuels and fuel-associated waters. These guidelines have been generated to leverage the unique features of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) monitoring test kits from LuminUltra Technologies Ltd. which include provisions to minimize interferences from various sources including suspended particles, organic molecules, heavy metals, dissolved solids, residual biocides and extra-cellular ATP.

Helping Breweries Cut Natural Gas Costs And Waste Gas Emissions

No matter whether consumers choose a pilsner, an ale, or another popular type of beer, there is a critical focus at nearly all breweries today on their production process energy (natural gas) costs and plant environmental compliance (waste gas emissions). Failing to pay attention to the efficiency of these processes at breweries or any other type of food and beverage processing plant can lead to cost competitiveness issues and hefty regulatory fines.

Injecting Innovation Into The Food And Beverage Industry

Not all water treatment needs are the same. That’s why it’s imperative to work with those that understand the subtle dif­ferences that make each industry unique. For food and beverage companies, that means aligning with KLa Systems, a com­pany focused on oxygen transfer with a track record of innovation in jet aeration and mixing.

Simple Syrup Disinfection Without The Risk Of Caramelization

Atlantium Technologies has revolutionized the treatment of simple syrups with its cutting-edge Hydro-Optic Disinfection (HOD™) technology.

Potable Reuse Gets A Taste Of The Charles River

It was named by the infamous explorer Captain John Smith after the Massachusett tribe of Native Americans, then subsequently renamed by King Charles I of England after himself. As Boston grew, the mighty Charles River proved a vital force behind its expansion, and its long and winding history a reflection of the city’s own.

Keeping A Lid On It: Identifying And Intercepting Potential Cooling Water System Upsets

A wide range of industrial operations rely on cooling systems to function. And, in turn, these systems require cooling water to function. So, it stands to reason that a wide range of water treatment issues need to be considered and addressed so that cooling water system upsets are avoided and everything continues to run as it should. Oftentimes, an efficient industrial operation depends on efficient monitoring and treatment of cooling water.

How Water Utilities Can Support The Electric Grid While Reducing Costs Orange County Water District is combining operational flexibility with environmental stewardship by participating in demand response, earning millions in payments while maintaining their commitment to delivering clean, reliable water.

Automatic Self-Cleaning Scraper Strainers Filter Smallest Particles To Largest Debris

Unlike backwash systems, scraper strainers reliably resist clogging and fouling when faced with micron-sized particles, oversized solids, and high solids concentration.

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.”

From Waste To Power: How Floating Solar Panels On Wastewater Ponds Can Secure Electricity

Wastewater ponds may seem an unlikely place to look for solutions an electricity security crisis. But their underutilized surfaces could help tackle two problems at once — high power prices and algal growth.

A Few Heavy Storms Cause A Big Chunk Of Nitrogen Pollution From Midwest Farms

Some effects of extreme weather are visible. Other effects are harder to measure, but can be just as harmful. One example is agricultural nitrogen runoff from farmlands in the Mississippi River Basin. It mainly comes from fertilizer that farmers apply to millions of acres of crops.

GEOSPRAY Used To Line Corroded Culvert

When the Lake County Division of Transportation in Illinois identified a metal structure plate arch culvert that showed signs of major deterioration, they needed a way to structurally reline it to ensure it remained in top working condition.

Industrial Water Efficiency Grows At A Cost... To Municipalities

U.S. and Canada industrial sector withdrawals have declined 30 percent over the last three decades to 152 BGD. This trend, which is expected to continue, has been sparked by water-related technology improvements at facilities, company strategies to mitigate water supply risks, and outside pressure to better manage wastewater effluent through regulations and rising discharge costs.
