2 Applications That Triggered The Rise Of Coriolis Flow Measurement

Coriolis measurement has been adopted as a default technology in many application scenarios due to its high accuracy and immunity to process variables (temperature, pressure and flow profile). However, Coriolis wasn't always widely accepted. Two applications, in particular, helped what was once a nascent flow measurement technology gain a foothold in the marketplace.

Capacitance Level Switches Provide Reliable Water/Oil Interface Detection

There are a number of point level approaches to measuring the interface between water and oil for water dump control in the oil and gas industry. However, each has disadvantages — manual methods introduce human error, conductivity switches are rendered inaccurate by buildup, and float switches are susceptible to wear and tear. This white paper introduces capacitance level switches as an accurate and reliable alternative for water/oil interface detection.

Importance Of Flare Gas Measurement Grows To Meet Environmental Regulations

Learn how Seaboard Triumph Foods replaced ineffective hydrogen peroxide treatment with SDOX technology, resulting in cost savings, improved sewer system, and enhanced odor control.

Potato Chips In Peru? Headworks Solves A Multinational Food & Beverage Company's Space And Effluent Quality Challenges

Although industry only accounts for 20% of water consumption globally (vs. 70% for agriculture and 10% for domestic consumption), most multinational industrial companies are now focused on ensuring they provide effective environmental management wherever they are in the world.  

The Role Of Aeration In Optimal Yeast And Enzyme Production

Installing the most appropriate blower equipment in the process can enhance yeast and enzyme production, minimize energy costs, guarantee food safety, and avoid costly failures.

Water And Hospitality Come Together To Tackle FOG

Water companies are prioritizing engagement with the hospitality sector in their drive to keep sewers free of fats, oils and grease (FOG). Network protection managers at Southern Water and United Utilities, Stephen Williams and Andrew Peet, tell Laura Su, managing director of the European FOG Summit, why cross-sector partnerships must be forged.

Predicting The Impact Of EPA's Proposed Power Plant Effluent Limits

The EPA has proposed a regulation  that, if passed,  would set the first federal limits on the levels of toxic metals in wastewater discharged from power plants in over three decades. 

Texas' Evolving Energy Reality: Clean Energy Uses Less Water

It’s been an interesting time for water in Texas. Beyond the incredibly wet and cool spring we’ve been having, Memorial Day saw the second year in a row of record-breaking floods.

EPA Providing Guidance For Drinking Water After Radiological Emergency

What would happen if there was an emergency in the U.S. that caused radioactive material to contaminate drinking water supplies? What steps could your utilities and government take?

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.

Waste Heat Recovery For Desalination From Steam Power Plants

Currently, in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia about 1.5 million barrels of oil are consumed daily to generate electricity to drive reverse osmosis desalination plants.  This represents about 15 percent of KSA’s daily oil production. 

Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC) Monitoring Techniques

Corrosion has been identified as one of the major economic issues that governments and companies will face moving forward in the 21st century. Infrastructure is so ubiquitous in our society that we can take its security and safety for granted. While the most common occurrence of microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is in oil and gas-associated transportation and storage systems, MIC is also relevant for the industrial and municipal sectors, including water and wastewater systems. 

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.

DAF System Effectively Removes 95% Of TSS For Railcar Bearing Manufacturer

A manufacturer of railcar bearings, wheels, and axles needed a wastewater system upgrade to treat for oil, grease, suspended solids, and dissolved metals in a mix of process water and storm water runoff. The existing wastewater treatment system in place at the facility consisted of a small equalization tank, traditional clarifier and sand filter. 

What Is Seawater Intrusion? A Hydrogeologist Explains The Shifting Balance Between Fresh And Salt Water At The Coast Fresh water is essential for drinking, irrigation, and healthy ecosystems. When seawater moves inland, the salt it contains can wreak havoc on farmlands, ecosystems, lives, and livelihoods.
