The Water Online Show: Exploring Flow Measurement Technologies And Best Practices Across Diverse Industries
While The Water Online Show covers everything water and wastewater, the challenges regarding flow measurement are consistent amongst many other industries. Whether it’s Oil & Gas or Green Energy or any other closely related industry, solutions for these measurements and calibrations related to flow are available. Adam Schleyhahn, Director of Sales and Marketing for FCI joins the show to tell us more.

Capacitance Level Switches Provide Reliable Water/Oil Interface Detection
There are a number of point level approaches to measuring the interface between water and oil for water dump control in the oil and gas industry. However, each has disadvantages — manual methods introduce human error, conductivity switches are rendered inaccurate by buildup, and float switches are susceptible to wear and tear. This white paper introduces capacitance level switches as an accurate and reliable alternative for water/oil interface detection.

Electrocoagulation Provides Economical Solution For Produced Water To Oil & Gas Companies
Oil and natural gas are considered valuable resources all across the globe. The number of products made from these two materials is impressive and our lives would be very different without them. Production of these products begins with locating the underground sources of crude oil. These deep well sources are then mined to extract the oil and gas materials. Afterward, these raw materials are sent to refineries to be converted into the petrochemical and gas products that we use nearly every day. Therefore, produced water treatment & management is an integral part of oil & gas company operations.

Recycling Wastewater from Oil And Gas Wells Poses Challenges
Each year, the oil and gas industry produces more than 800 billion gallons of wastewater. Coupling the massive volumes of wastewater generated over the life of the well and the millions of gallons of water needed to hydraulically fracture each well, it’s easy to see that oil and gas exploration and production is just as much a water issue as it is an energy issue.

Meat-Free Diets Could Cut Our 'Water Footprint' In Half, Say Scientists
Three thousand litres of water — that is the amount needed to produce the food each British person eats every day. This is according to a new study into the “water footprint” of diets in Western Europe, conducted by the European Commission and published in Nature Sustainability.

Overcoming Obstacles To Increase Wastewater Capacity
It’s a scenario that is becoming more common at food and beverage facilities. The introduction of a new product to market, or a boom in sales of an existing product, prompts management to increase production capacity. While there is plenty of space for production equipment, the corresponding need for additional wastewater treatment capacity may not be readily accommodated.

Successful Screening Pilot At A Major Waste-To-Energy Player
Parkson recently had a very successful pilot test at the facility of a bio-feedstock supplier of waste products turned into fuel. The Rotoshear® unit, equipped with a .060” wedgewire screen, successfully removes solids directly from Industrial Waste Hauling trucks to recover grease. Screening this material before it enters the receiving station allows the facility to focus on proper treatment of the industrial wastewater rather than the expensive downtime to drain and clean their receiving pond.

Automatic Self-Cleaning Scraper Strainers Filter Smallest Particles To Largest Debris
Unlike backwash systems, scraper strainers reliably resist clogging and fouling when faced with micron-sized particles, oversized solids, and high solids concentration.

Pile Cloth Media Filtration For Clean Utilities
Cooling towers and boilers consume the most fresh water in the industry, with industrial process waters carrying the balance. Power plants and refineries use more water volume for the cooling process than any other area of the facility. Mining and food and beverage industries consume higher volumes for their processes. Clean water may come from a range of sources, including clarified surface waters, groundwater or properly treated wastewater (reuse) sources.

Membrane Technologies In Containerized Units Allow For Installation In A Small Footprint
After an international tender process, the Israel Electric Company (IEC) chose Fluence to design, manufacture, and supply containerized ultrapure water production systems for use as makeup water for heat-recovery steam generators (HRSG) and for NOx emission reduction at recently upgraded power plants across Israel. More than 15 units of 20 m3/h production modules, each fitted in two 40-foot shipping containers, were provided to seven power plants. Their compact design allowed for ease of installation, operation, and maintenance while meeting the customer’s demanding engineering standards.
