Getting back to basics: What is pH?

The most used measure in wastewater treatment, and for good reasons

The “potential of hydrogen” or “pH” is the measure of free hydrogen activity in water and thereby indicative of the measure of its free acidity or free alkalinity. Gauged on a numeric scale of 0-14, solutions with a pH of less than 7.0 are acids. Solutions with a pH greater than 7.0 are bases and solutions with a pH of 7.0 are n

What is wastewater?

Wastewater, the waste discharge that first comes to mind in any discussion of stream pollution, is the discharge of domestic wastewater, which contains a large amount of organic waste. Industry also contribute substantial amounts of organic waste, some of which comes from vegetable and fruit packing; dairy processing; meat packing; tanning; processing of poultry, oil, paper and fiber (wood) and many other industries. All organic materials have o

How to win the race for everyone

Waste Management Solutions for Business

Industry will always lead the way in the adaptation of new technology, and especially the technology of conservation.

This is not necessarily for any ideological reason, but because the people who manage water use better understand the economic incentives for adopting new technology. Current technology of wastewater treatment is a perfect example of this acc

When we think of mop water, most likely we think of our kitchen floor. In industrial plants, however, mop water could contain a toxic blend of chemicals that are mopped off the floor, and sometimes end up in our rivers, streams and municipal wastewater systems. While we consider the health of our environment, we don’t necessarily realize the hidden dangers of mop water. This article will provide an overview of some of the detrimental effects industrial mop water has on the

Pumps are the heart of wastewater treatment systems and pump metering chemicals is critically imperative to required wastewater treatment!

Different types of pumps are designed for unique wastewater treatment pump applications. Centrifugal pumps are used for general wastewater pumping. Positive Displacement pumps are used for pumping heavier solids. Chemical Metering Pumps are used for pump metering chemicals into wastewater for treatment.

Metering pumps are designed to add sp

Primary Treatment is defined as a wastewater treatment process that takes place in a rectangular or circular tank and allows those substances in wastewater that readily settle or float to be separated from the water being treated. This process achieves solids separation. The solids readily available to settle to achieve sedimentation will do so in a settling tank referred as a clarifier. On the other hand, solids readily available to float will do so in a flotation tank refer
