Industrial wastewater treatment is no more optional
The environmental effects of industrial wastewater usage must be considered, not only on the land but also on our environment through water consumption and wastewater disposal. The wastewater from industries worsens groundwater pollution and causes other environmental problems. This reduces the nutrients in groundwater and increases the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Furthermore, it ...

Wastewater Treatment: An Important Step In Preventing Pollution
Water treatment companies treat any wastewater entering their facilities, but large volumes of stormwater can overwhelm pipe capacities and treatment facilities during heavy rainfall and capacity events. Excess water then bypasses treatment and discharges directly into waterways through release points known as combined sewage overflows (CSOs), causing river and ocean pollution plaguing ...

How to Select an Effluent Treatment?
The first step is accurately gauging the total effluent volume and flow rate with a survey to size the treatment capacity properly. In parallel, estimate if your production processes or volumes could expand, meaning greater effluent generation. The treatment selected must have adequate capacity. Quantifying both the current flow requirements and potential increases lets us identify and design ...

RetroFAST Case Study
The Problem: Recently, we received a call from a pastor of a rural congregation in Indiana. He asked if he could use the water puddle standing in his septic system’s drain field for irrigation. “It seems a waste to just leave it there!” He said. “Can I use it to water my tomatoes?” I responded that his drain field should absolutely not have a big water puddle in it! ...

Case Study: Wastewater Level Monitoring in SBR Tanks
Level sensors are critical in controlling sequencing batch reactor (SBR) systems, monitoring liquid levels in the basins and helping to control pumps that move wastewater through the system. A municipal wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) was experiencing issues with its existing level sensors. Due to a challenging environment, surface conditions and obstructions, the level sensors produced ...

RFID turnstiles for regulating access in a transit system
RFID turnstiles for regulating access in a transit system What are RFID turnstiles? The RFID Turnstiles have been in use for a long time. In the turnstile barrier gates, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) credentials are presented at an RFID reader present in the gates. If the RFID credentials are determined to be valid, the gates open or else the gates do not open. To determine if the RFID ...
