INDUSTRIAL WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT

Industrial Boilers-GettyImages-157373983 Protecting Your Plant's Water Systems In Winter: The Role Of Smart Boilers And Leak Detection

Winter in industrial facilities brings more than chilly temperatures; it presents real operational risks. Freezing conditions, sudden cold snaps, and icy environments can put severe stress on a plant’s water systems, boilers, and piping networks.

WATER AND WASTEWATER SOLUTIONS FOR THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY

  • Profit Potential Of Industrial Wastewater In The Circular Economy

    In the midst of a global water crisis, industries today too often overlook a river of revenue opportunity: their own wastewater.

  • Innovation In Applying Existing Technology Solutions

    A long-standing staple — water — is rapidly becoming a major issue for companies, not merely as a risk or line item expense, but for the potential it has to significantly impact shareholder value.  

  • 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.

  • Refinery Wastewater: Benefits Of Remediation By Electrocoagulation

    Crude oil is a fossil fuel formed from long-dead organisms subjected to intense heat and pressure underground. This resource is the main ingredient in the production of gasoline, diesel fuel, lubricants, kerosene, propane, and asphalt. All of these products can be made in a single refinery through a complex branching series of chemical processes. The central refining process is atmospheric distillation whereby the crude oil is fractured into different components based on their differing boiling points. Each of these fractions will be sent along to separate process to be turned into the different oil products. Therefore, remediation of refinery wastewater from these different processes can be quite complex.

  • Predicting The Worldwide Impact Of Water Scarcity On The Energy Sector

    As water is stretched and regulations around it tightened, the energy industry feels the burden. This can result in everything from reduced operations and higher costs for consumers to,in extreme cases, blackouts and gas and electricity shortages.

WATER AND WASTEWATER SOLUTIONS FOR THE FOOD AND BEVERAGE INDUSTRY

  • Versatility Of Sequencing Batch Reactors In The Dairy Industry Result In Lowering Costs And Increasing Efficiency

    Read about a technology that dairy plants can take advantage of to optimize the treatment of their wastewater and assure consistent compliance to effluent discharge permits.

  • Microbial Control In Cheese Making

    Microbial contamination of food and beverage products is a potentially catastrophic occurrence resulting in foodborne illness or food spoilage. The same nutritive properties that render cheese and dairy products such a valuable food also provide an ideal growth medium for microbes if contamination occurs.

  • Overcoming Obstacles To Increase Wastewater Capacity

    It’s a scenario that is becoming more common at food and beverage facilities. The introduction of a new product to market, or a boom in sales of an existing product, prompts management to increase production capacity. While there is plenty of space for production equipment, the corresponding need for additional wastewater treatment capacity may not be readily accommodated.

    DC Water’s taste test shines the spotlight on municipal water quality, public perception, and consumer relations.

WATER AND WASTEWATER SOLUTIONS FOR THE POWER GENERATION INDUSTRY

  • Water And Power Generation Remain A Balancing Act Amid Tightening Regulations

    A recent survey digs into the treatment aspects of water in the power industry, revealing how electric utilities are responding to concerns over regulations and volumes of use.

  • Can Co-Locating Utilities Solve The Water-Energy Nexus?

    Resources being a scarce commodity, it’s incumbent upon us to optimize the use of water and energy as best we can. While conservation is the prime course of action for the public, the best solution for utilities may be to work smarter — by having the water-energy nexus work for us instead of against us.

  • The Long Journey Of An Energy-Water Bill In Texas

    Being an environmental advocate in Texas may seem like an uphill battle, and I make no bones about the fact it most certainly is.

  • The Key To Accurate Waste Gas Flow Measurement

    Wastewater treatment facilities have a tremendous opportunity to utilize the biogas they generate to lower energy costs and minimize odors. However, the practice isn’t as widespread as it could be, as the precision gas flow and methane content readings required to optimize the process often clash with the misconception that biogas is messy and difficult to measure reliably. With the proper equipment, it is possible to accurately measure biogas to cut emissions and reduce or eliminate the energy bill.

  • U.S. Military Bases With Cancer-Linked Contaminated Water Are Undercounted

    Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a group of an estimated 5,000 man-made fluorinated chemicals that have been used, since the 1940s, in the manufacturing processes of various consumer products and industries. PFAS are widely used, especially because of their oil and water repellency and temperature and chemical resistance.
