Is Wastewater Reuse Entering a ‘Golden Decade?’
Technological advances are making reuse an increasingly attractive option Water managers worldwide have understood the necessity of embracing wastewater reuse for years, but since the well-known “yuck factor” associated with potable reuse has made it a hard sell in the United States, the discussion has largely remained academic here. It seems, however, that 2018 may be the year ...

Counting the Drops: Leak Detection and Auditing Methods for Property Managers
Leaks are never good, whether it’s a leaky boat or a leaky pipe system. Even advanced water utility systems can experience water loses ranging from 10 – 40%, with these losses being proportional to the population of the urban area serviced by the water distribution system. Large cities like New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles are vulnerable to staggering amounts of water loss in ...

NPDES Effluent Guidelines: A Guide to pH
In the United States, before wastewater can be discharged into a lake or river, it is mandatory to meet the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) effluent guidelines. These parameters – pH (potential hydrogen), TSS (total suspended solids) and BOD (biological oxygen demand) – can be lowered by controlling algal growth. This blog is the first is a three-part series to ...
