Iron and manganese typically fall into the category of secondary contaminants, but they can still cause problems for municipal and private drinking water treatment systems. While not a health risk, high concentrations of iron and manganese can create unpleasant color, taste and odor in drinking water, leading to complaints from customers and damaging the public’s trust in their water systems.

And that’s not all. When left to form deposits, iron and manganese can build up in

There are three drain monitoring systems installed on the Northampton site which are serviced quarterly by Partech Engineers. There are regulations set by government entities to protect life and the environment and so the systems are in place to monitor for accidental contamination spillage making it’s way down the drains and into the River Nene.

The systems installed on the site are able to detect beer, diesel, oil and other contaminants in the drains by way of a 

At Partech we are proud of the quality of the services and support we provide to our customers and always welcome and encourage feedback. Recently, Partech collaborated with Aqua Consultants on a project for a South West Water site involving real time turbidity readings from Partech Analsyers.

The collaboration stemmed from Aqua Consultants </

The 7300 Monitor was released in 2010 and is a core Partech product. It has undergone various changes over the last 7 years and has recently been updated with new Software & Hardware features to accommodate new sensors.

Software – What’s Changed?

The 7300 Monitor now has the following new features:

• V2

This month we are pleased to introduce our latest product the WaterTech TMP Sensor.

The WaterTech TMP Temperature Sensor is a precision device which offers breakthrough performance over a wide industrial temperature range and is compatible with the 7300 Monitor. Designed for use between -10 °C and +80°C with a measurement accuracy of +/-0.3 °C. The clever internal tempera

The two Danish companies; Danish Aerospace Company ApS (DAC) and Aquaporin Space Alliance ApS (ASA) have been tasked by ESA to develop a breadboard model of a water recycling unit for space applications. If successful this could lead to a new type of open water recycling system for future testing on the International Space Station and eventually use on human voyages further out into the Solar System.

 The two companies will spend the next six months desi

At Partech we understand the need for simple, low cost methods for sludge blanket monitoring in a wide variety of settlement tanks. It its important to have reliable detection in order to de-sludge tanks at the most beneficial time, reducing costs and unnecessary work at a later stage in the cleaning process.

A sludge interface that is too high can result in pollution incidents caused by carry-over from a final settlement tank into the final effluent channel. The

We are kick starting the New Year by focusing on the  OxyTechw² RDO Pro-X Dissolved Oxygen Sensor  – the lastest in optical sensing technology!

The sensor is the perfect choice for measuring Dissolved Oxygen in some of the more challenging wastewater, drinking water, industrial effluent and surface water environments.The OxyTechw² RDO Pro-X Dissolved Oxygen Sensor me

With 2016 drawing to a close, we are looking back over the accomplishments of the year and most notably Partech achieved a record – our largest export order to date!

The export order came in from Beijing Science and Technology Company Ben-Hua whom we have formed a winning working relationship with over the years. Ben-Hua were successful in acquiring a project to supply to the biggest membrane manufacturer

This month we are focusing on the control of sludge blanket build up in Lamella Clarifiers. Lamella Clarifiers, also known as Inclined Plate Separators (IPS) are in common use at Waste Water Treatment Sites as small footprint plant settlement units and are often employed in place of conventional settling tanks.

Controlling Sludge Blanket Build up

Effluent enters the Lamella Clarifier via an inlet pipe, entering the plates through the si
