The global increase in detection of cyanobacteria and their metabolites has prompted greater emphasis in optimizing water treatment options for their effective removal. In particular, conventional coagulation and clarification processes have been shown to be effective in removing whole cyanobacterial cells, and consequently a majority of the metabolites. However, the resultant ...
Challenge A glass manufacturing plant was having trouble cleaning the emitted gases, particulate, and odors that resulted from its manufacturing process. Metallic Halides such as SnCl4 and TiCl4 were being applied to hot glass to impart special properties. The halide and oxide emissions were hazardous, extremely pungent, irritating in odor, and very difficult to scrub. ...
Polyacrylamide polymers (PAM) are one of the most common water treatment chemicals used in clarification processes. Concerns have been raised with regards to the aquatic and human toxicity of acrylamide monomer. Greener polymers, produced using potato starch, were investigated at lab-scale as a potential non-toxic alternative to the use of PAM within a ballasted flocculation process ...
The overall objective of this research was to investigate various methods and parameters to increase the efficiency of Chemically Enhanced Primary Treatment (CEPT). To understand the methods of improving efficiency, non-setteable solids (NSS) was selected as the controlling parameter that influenced efficiency of CEPT. Parameters and source characteristics that increase NSS results in poorer CEPT ...
Challenge A fish meat processing plant wanted to reduce their effluent discharge costs and eliminate chemical cost in primary waste water treatment. Solution Genesis Water Technologies with its local partner provided engineering, and design of a electrocoagulation solution with prescreen and post solids separation that eliminated chemical usage in the primary ...
Setting trends in water resource management for Textile Waste Water Treatment with MBR Technology W.O.G Group became the trend-setter in water resource management through 5.5 MLD recycle/reuse based effluent treatment plant. PREVIOUS TREATMENT METRICS: Effluent treatment capacity: 2500 m3/day Treated effluent quality: As per local discharge ...
Pecos began use of barley straw as a clarification aid in June 2005 to determine its effectiveness as part of a phased treatment plant replacement. Phase I includes construction of a new UV system that will disinfect effluent received directly from Lagoon No. 3. However, this phasing would place a heavy TSS loading on the UV system. As barley decomposes, a chemical is emitted that inhibits algal ...
The Aireys Inlet Water Treatment Plant (WTP) is located about 150 kilometres from Melbourne on the Great Ocean Road. The WTP utilises a conventional upflow sludge blanket clarification process. The raw water source for this plant is characterised by high DOC levels. Despite operating in an enhanced coagulation mode sufficient DOC removal was not able to be achieved. This resulted in high ...
The right equipment to make your business grow Every drop of beer counts, as do its quality and consistency, and at the Florida Beer Company, they know this very well. The challenge: Simplify filtration system and improve performance The Florida Beer Company, established in 2003, extended its activites in 2011 when various small ...
In the US state of Florida, the public regional wholesale water provider Tampa Bay Water and Veolia Water North America completed a 454,000 cubic meters (120 million gallons per day) water treatment plant that exceeds federal and state drinking water quality standards. The design, build, and operate (DBO) approach helped to save US$80 million and kept the project on schedule.The Tampa Bay Water ...
There is an increasing need of safe, eco-friendly and sustainable methods of providing good solutions for water and wastewater treatment in municipal and industrial applications throughout the world. Now, a Natural Zeolite based Flocculation Media, called ZeoTurb has been introduced by Genesis Water Technologies. The GWT ZeoTurb is a type of natural non-toxic powder flocculation media used to ...
Edible Liquid Salt Purification Solution for high-quality edible liquid salt : The technology of ceramic membrane brine filtration is used for continuous brine purification without adding any flocculant and scale inhibitor. Self-developed and exclusively self-retained technology of ceramic ...
ABSTRACT A two-month pilot study was conducted at the Village Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant in Birmingham, Alabama to test the technical feasibility of utilizing a ...
Cephalosporin Cephalosporin is the second class of β-Lactamase found in nature following by penicillin. Any of various broad-spectrum antibiotics, closely related to the penicillins, which were originally derived from the fungus Cephalosporium acremonium. It has many advantages of high efficiency, broad-spectrum, low toxicity and enzyme-resistance which has been developed four new products ...

Ferrous salts are commonly used as coagulants in Water Treatment Plants (WTPs). When these salts are combined with hydrogen peroxide in acidic conditions – besides coagulation – an additional Advanced Oxidation Process (Fenton's reagent) can take place. Using a response surface methodology, this paper presents the optimization of a novel treatment system constituted by Fenton's reagent (FE) and ...
In wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), activated sludge is thickened in secondary settling tanks and recycled into the biological reactor to maintain enough biomass for wastewater treatment. Accurately estimating the activated sludge concentration in the lower portion of the secondary clarifiers is of great importance for evaluating and controlling the sludge recycled ratio, ensuring smooth and ...
Parkes is located in central NSW and is famous for the Parkes Radio Telescope. Recently a new sewage treatment plant was constructed by John Holland and part of the process included a tertiary clarification process. Hydroflux Epco supplied a 15M HeadMax® Suction Head Clarifier. An EdiGate® energy dispersing inlet was provided as part of the package. Sludge is hydraulically ...
