Sharing Big Water Data
This post explores why we need data consistency across utilities and how we might maintain it with shared workflows. In use-case workflows, there are two processing stages before analysing water data. The first of these is basic cleaning – taking the raw data and removing unreadable data and duplicates, erroneous data spikes and getting timestamps into correct sequence. These processes ...

Pollution mapping case study
This exploration survey used the cross-hole resistivity method to detect if there was industrial waste water leakage from an industrial waste water process pond. Chemical analyses concluded that this specific waste water has a much lower resistivity than normal water. The figure below shows that the area above 45m is a relatively high resistive zone made of limestone. Below this depth is a ...

The application of surface engineered silica for the treatment of sugar containing wastewater
The removal of sucrose and fructose from water at various high concentrations by surface engineered silica (SES) was studied using dissolved sugar in pure water. The results indicate that sugar at concentrations of up to 800 g/L can be removed by SES at a relatively high dose of 250 to 300 g/L. Based on these results, process water from a soft drink filling station which was contaminated by ...

Research on the infiltration processes of lawn soils of the Babao River in the Qilian Mountain
Using a Guelph Permeameter, the soil water infiltration processes were analyzed in the Babao River of the Qilian Mountain in China. The results showed that the average soil initial infiltration and the steady infiltration rates in the upstream reaches of the Babao River are 1.93 and 0.99 cm/min, whereas those of the middle area are 0.48 cm/min and 0.21 cm/min, respectively. The infiltration ...

High purity boiler make-up water for esso thailand
The Facility The Esso refinery is located in Sriracha, Thailand approximately 50 miles south of Bangkok. Due to increased refinery demands, Esso embarked on a facility expansion to more than double the refinery’s production capacity. The Problem The expansion plan required additional high purity water to be used for boiler make-up. With the existing desalination units in disrepair, Esso ...

Unexpected toxicity to aquatic organisms of some aqueous bisphenol A samples treated by advanced oxidation processes
In this study, photocatalytic and catalytic wet-air oxidation (CWAO) processes were used to examine removal efficiency of bisphenol A from aqueous samples over several titanate nanotube-based catalysts. Unexpected toxicity of bisphenol A (BPA) samples treated by means of the CWAO process to some tested species was determined. In addition, the CWAO effluent was recycled five- or 10-fold in order ...

When it comes to food packaging, what we don’t know could hurt us
Recent analyses raise disturbing questions about the health and environmental effects of the stuff that encases our edibles. It’s almost impossible to imagine life without flexible, transparent and water-resistant food packaging, without plastic sandwich bags, cling film or shelves filled with plastic jars, tubs and tubes, and durable bags and boxes. While storing food in containers ...
