The Ultimate Guide To Industrial Wastewater Treatment

Most people are now familiar with the 3 R's of recycling: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. By following four similar principles — Recover, Reduce, Recycle, and Rescue — industries can further minimize raw resource requirements, eliminate waste disposal fees, and increase margins, all while promoting circular economies.

Monitor Cooling Tower Water Consumption Accurately, Without Disruption

Operations that want to track cooling tower water use accurately in 24/7 applications — without having to disrupt processes to install a new meter — need options that are easy to retrofit into continuous operations. Here’s how they can achieve + 0.5 percent flow meter accuracy without compromising cooling tower availability, by employing full-profile insertion (FPI) electromagnetic flow meters (mag meters) with hot-tap installation capabilities.

It's A Perfect Time For Public Officials To Launch Riverfront Redevelopment Projects, And Private Sector Partners Are In High Demand

Before environmental concerns became a staple of urban planning, industrial sites dominated waterfront properties in American cities. For decades, factories used urban waterways to dispose of pollutants. As environmental awareness grew, however, those sites were abandoned, but the toxic aftermath lingered. But new funding and technology are both available now to remedy that risk.
