INDUSTRIAL WATER AND WASTEWATER TREATMENT
When Is A Mechanical Metering Pump The Better Option?
Sometimes simpler is smarter. Mechanical metering pumps can deliver reliable, cost-effective performance in applications that don’t require advanced controls or continuous-duty operation.Sometimes simpler is smarter.

Onshore Crude Oil Decontamination Using A Water Security Test Bed
Onshore crude oil production has increased in the United States over the past few years. Oil producers, specifically the North Dakota Pipeline Authority and the Bakken Shale field producers are transporting crude oil by rail and train to both the East and West Coast oil refineries. While rail tends to be one of the safer and more efficient ways of transporting crude oil, there is still a risk of a spill. Oil spills are threats to both ground and surface waters, which can ultimately impact drinking water.

Drilling Fluid Producer Discovers The Coriolis Advantage
Drilling fluid is critical for successful oil extraction. Typically made up of water, clay and a complex mix of chemicals, it supports the drilling process in a variety of ways — from lubricating and cooling the drill bit under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions, to lifting drill cuttings to the surface, to maintaining oil well stability and safety. But drilling fluid is not a “one size fits all” solution. To work properly, the fluid must be optimized for the unique geographic conditions of individual well sites.

DO Or Die — Dealing With Aeration Basin Oxygen Deficiencies
Managing the treatment of wastewater — especially industry-generated wastewater that can elevate dissolved oxygen (DO) demands far beyond those of municipal/residential applications — is hard enough. Trying to do so during upset conditions is enough to put any water treatment professional on edge. Here are several preventive and remedial options to keep in mind before or after DO readings go haywire.

EPA Researchers Partner With The Minnesota Department of Health To Screen For Chemicals Of Health Concern In Water
There are many different chemicals that are released into our environment, and the ability to characterize human exposure and risk of every one of those chemicals is limited. Because information about these chemicals and their sources is limited, it’s difficult to know which chemicals are of highest concern, and regulatory agencies struggle to determine where they should focus efforts.
