Utilizing Thermal Mass Flow Meters To Optimize Thermal Oxidizer Performance And Reduce HAP/VOC Emissions

Many processes in the oil/gas refining, specialty chemical production, solvents, paint, coatings and photoelectric industries generate hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) and volatile organic chemicals (VOCs), which need to be removed from waste, flue and tail gases before emission into the environment to meet clean air regulations around the world. In addition to removing problematic greenhouse gases, emphasis is placed on eliminating toxins that can be harmful to industrial workers and the environment.

A Fouling-Free Filter For Produced Water

Hydraulic fracturing is a hot-button issue, but no matter where you land you should agree that more efficient produced water filters will go a long way in improving the practice.

Optimal Ultrafiltration Uses For Beverage Dairy Companies

When you’re sipping on a cold soda or snacking on a creamy piece of cheese, you probably don’t really think about what went into making your food or beverage. Maybe, you already know because you saw a random episode of ‘How its Made’ on TV discussing ultrafiltration uses in the beverage industry while your were channel surfing on a lazy afternoon. Either way, aside from the automated production line machines, one of the most important things that goes into the making of any soda, juice, wheel of cheese, or gallon of milk is water. Producing beverages and dairy products use substantial amounts of water in their production processes.

Pasteurized Equivalent Water Treatment At High Desert Milk, Idaho, US

Learn how High Desert Milk, a cooperative in Idaho, optimized their water treatment process using HOD™ UV technology, ensuring FDA compliance while significantly reducing water and energy consumption.

MBBR Technology Helps Plant Maintain Discharge Compliance, Achieve Sustainable Growth

A bacon processing plant in the Midwest was overloaded by more than 50%. Even though the system continued to maintain compliance, the plant proactively decided to expand its wastewater treatment facility to ensure they met their growing demand and maintained their standing as exemplary corporate citizens and environmental stewards.

Packaged Wastewater Treatment: A Recipe For Success

Food and beverage wastewater treatment demands often fluctuate more drastically than municipal wastewater applications in terms of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) relating to the foods being processed or to cyclical activity. Modular, self-contained systems offer practical, cost-effective solutions to help food processors keep pace with such variability — as a total or supplemental solution. Here’s how.

Challenges And Solutions To Treating Beverage Wastewater

Discover how one beverage manufacturer was able to balance producing a quality product while also undertaking the challenging of reclaiming and treating its effluent.

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.

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.

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.
