From 1-4 February we were at the AWWA/AMTA Membrane Technology Conference & Exposition in San Antonio, Texas. There were over 90 exhibitors and 140 papers presented. There was even a session in Spanish, where Fernando del Vigo presented a paper entitled ‘What’s New in RO Membrane Cleaning? Micro-Bubbles and High Ionic Strength Effervescent Cleaners Enhance RO Membrane Foulant Removal’. The conference was attended by over 1,000 people, making for another successful AMTA event. 

At the end of April we’ll be at another AMTA event, this one focused on the oil industry. Due to be held in Houston, the theme of the AMTA/SCMA Joint Technology Transfer Workshop is Treating Non-Conventional Water Supplies Using Membrane Technology. I’ll be presenting a new paper – ‘Practical Examples of New Ways to Clean Membranes Fouled by Non-Conventional Water Sources’, which features three case studies from the oil industry. I’ll be explaining our new cleaning techniques, using effervescing reagents and inducted air to create microbubbles to enhance high ionic strength osmotic flush cleaning, and outlining the results of actual on-site cleans.

  • Equipment management - With cooling system

    Cooling tower always has fouling deposited problem especially in open circuit cooling tower. Why open circuit cooling tower has problem about fouling? (Fouling is the accumulation of any deposit such as calcium carbonate, organic molecules, moss and biofilm.) Cooling tower is a heat reject device in industrial cooling system by evaporating. In cooling tower operate, the cooling water is been recycle used. But cooling tower main working principle is evaporation. With evaporate going on the cooling water volume...

    Though small and somewhat nondescript, quagga and zebra mussels pose a huge threat to local rivers, lakes and estuaries. Thanks to aggressive measures to prevent contamination, Santa Barbara County`s waters have so far been clear of the invasive mollusks, but stewards of local waterways, reservoirs and water recreation areas remain vigilant to the possibility of infestation by these and other non-native organisms. Now, UC Santa Barbara-based research scientist Carolynn Culver and colleagues at UCSB`s Marine...

  • PC Software for the DATS 3 is now available!

    Software for the DATS 3 fouling monitor has (finally) been written to directly capture data from serial port communications. The new software will assist customers who have been using the MS Hyperterminal Windows application for DATS 3 logging, and the tedious conversion of that data stream. The data is stored in comma separated variable format to assist easy transfer into common spreadsheets [screen shot of primary display]. The DATS 3, as designed, was intended for only temporary connection to a PC serial port...
