Global Crisis And Modern Solutions At The Water-Energy Nexus

GE Water & Process Technologies and the World Resources Institute (WRI), an independent research organization studying sustainability, jointly produced a white paper called “Water-Energy Nexus: Business Risks and Rewards.” The paper hones in on the shared interest of the two groups, namely the supply of freshwater counted on by the energy industry, which in turn fuels water treatment operations, a relationship that’s known as the “water-energy nexus.”

The Multiple Uses For Heat Exchangers In Brewing

There are numerous uses for heat exchangers in breweries — from cooling, pasteurizing, and fermenting products to efficiently dealing with waste streams such as yeast slurry. Compared to other methods of heating, heat exchangers can be much more energy-efficient, providing both environmental and economic benefits.

A Cool Method For Industrial Water Reuse

By harvesting heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) condensate, industrial operations can take advantage of a cool, convenient source of clean water.

Making The Best Of A Bad O₂ Situation

A balanced wastewater process is a beautiful thing — plenty of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), plenty of O₂, and all those hungry little microbes are fat and happy. But what can be done when dissolved oxygen (DO) takes a nosedive and there’s not enough O₂ to satisfy industrial and food processing BOD? Here are some preparations to consider before wastewater treatment goes completely out of whack.

A New Approach To Early Biofilm Detection

To assist industrial operators in managing and preventing biofilm, Italian start-up ALVIM Srl created a monitoring system that provides early warning detection of bacterial biofilm growing on pipelines, tanks, heat exchangers, RO membranes, and other equipment.

Building A Brewing Process Worth Toasting To

Brewing beer is both an art and a science. Beer needs to taste good, but it also must look good, be protected from spoilage, and come from a brewing process that’s reliable and efficient, minimizing product waste to maximize what gets into the bottle.

A Cool Method For Industrial Water Reuse

By harvesting heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) condensate, industrial operations can take advantage of a cool, convenient source of clean water.

Achieving Ultrapure Water

It may sound intimidating, but water that has been treated to “ultrapure” condition is more than necessary in many applications. This highly-cleansed product is a fundamental part of many industrial operations, from the medicine we need to get well to the power we rely on in our daily lives. But, as the name implies, it’s no small task to get average influent to the ultrapure level.

Are Biden's COP27 Goals Enough To Curb The Water-Food-Energy Nexus?

At the 27th UN Climate Change Conference (COP27) in November 2022, world leaders gathered in Egypt to announce climate action initiatives and the steps each one planned to take to reduce the impacts of climate change in their respective countries. Among the leaders in attendance was U.S. President Biden, who outlined his goals and desires to double down on climate commitments relating to the water, food, energy nexus.

Design-Build Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) System — New Harquahala Generating Project

The New Harquahala Generating Project serves as a power and electrical wholesaler in the Southwestern United States. To fill the need for growing energy consumption in the region, this facility was built to provide power to the area.

Saving Water, One Drip At A Time

We live in a world of great disparities — whether earned or unjust — but we should all agree that everyone deserves enough water for their basic needs, which is why worsening water scarcity is an urgent human crisis. Thankfully, we have thought leaders such as Seth Siegel, author of Let There Be Water: Israel's Solution for a Water-Starved World, bringing the issue (and solutions) to the forefront.

3M™ High Flow Cartridges Dirt Loading & Filter System Sizing

The dirt holding capacity of particle removal filters is dependent on the rate of fluid flow through the filter. This dirt-holding-to-flowrate response in non-linear and is a critical consideration when sizing a filter system for industrial filtration applications.

Saving Dollars And Crushing Odors: How SulFeLox® Outperformed Calcium Nitrate In Tackling H2S
