2 Applications That Triggered The Rise Of Coriolis Flow Measurement

Coriolis measurement has been adopted as a default technology in many application scenarios due to its high accuracy and immunity to process variables (temperature, pressure and flow profile). However, Coriolis wasn't always widely accepted. Two applications, in particular, helped what was once a nascent flow measurement technology gain a foothold in the marketplace.

The Water-Energy Nexus

September 2020, water joined precious metals, oil and other commodity futures traded on Wall Street amid fears of scarcity. In October, Chart Industries, Inc., a global manufacturer of engineered equipment for the industrial gas and energy industries, announced its acquisition of the water cleantech company BlueInGreen, LLC., which Chart’s CEO and President, Jill Evanko, described as a ‘natural fit’.

Michigan Pipeline Standoff Could Affect Water Protection And Indigenous Rights Across The U.S.

Should states and Indigenous nations be able to influence energy projects they view as harmful or contrary to their laws and values? This question lies at the center of a heated debate over Enbridge Energy’s Line 5 pipeline, which carries oil and natural gas across Wisconsin and Michigan.

EPA-New Mexico Wastewater Report Is A Conversation Starter, Not The Final Word

When it comes to answering questions about whether the oil and gas industry’s wastewater can be safely reused for other purposes, like food crops, livestock, or even drinking water, there are a number of other serious factors to be considered.

Water Management For Fracking Evolves

To date, the bulk of analysis on the U.S. fracking industry has largely centered on well counts and oil and gas production.

Location, Location — The Key To Aeration

As with any industrial process, the right tool for the job depends on the nature of the task at hand. In aerobic wastewater treatment, that optimal choice often comes down to a balance between the biological and financial demands of the application. Either way, here are several performance comparisons of how multiple aeration methods and locations stack up in industrial wastewater treatment applications.

Flow Meter Ensures A Smooth Running Recovery Process At Bakery Production Plant

Employing roughly 5,000 workers in 12 countries, Vandemoortele bakery and production plant owes its success to high standards of quality, innovative production technologies, and a flair for finding economic alternatives. The latest example is the SITRANS FC430 Coriolis flow meter.

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.

Increasing Consumption Of Processed Food To Proliferate Peracetic Acid Market

Domestic cooking has taken a back seat across several developed economies, given the steady rise in the female workforce and subsequent lack of time. This, along with significant improvement in disposable incomes, has been playing a critical role in accelerating the shift toward processed food and beverages. 

Enhancing Treatment Capacity For Simmons Foods

Learn how Simmons Foods resolved their wastewater treatment issues by replacing their aeration equipment, resulting in increased treatment capacity, improved removal rates, and reduced operating costs and energy consumption. 

Saving Texas' Water Through Smart Energy Choices In 2016

2015 proved to be another weird weather year around the country, especially for Texas. 80 degrees and dry in Austin on Christmas Day, spring wildflowers in bloom, and kids playing outside in shorts — a surprise ending to a wild ride of drought followed by devastating floods followed by drought and then more floods.

Boiler Feed Water Pump Local Instrumentation — Necessity Or Nuisance?

Anyone remember the old cars of the 1950s and 1960s? They all pretty much came equipped with an ammeter, an oil pressure gauge, a water temperature gauge, as well as a speedometer and a fuel level gauge. 

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.

Controlling Biofouling In Governador José Richa Power Plant, Brazil

Read about an extensive study that was carried out to evaluate the ability of the HOD UV system to control biofouling in the Governador José Richa Power Plant. 

How Water Utilities Can Support The Electric Grid While Reducing Costs Orange County Water District is combining operational flexibility with environmental stewardship by participating in demand response, earning millions in payments while maintaining their commitment to delivering clean, reliable water.

How Industrial Water Services Are Shaping The Future Of Global Manufacturing Water is one of the most essential resources in any industrial setup, and managing it efficiently can mean the difference between success and stagnation. Welcome to the world of industrial water services — a sector that's as critical as it is complex.

Santa Monica, CA Case Study The City of Santa Monica shut down the Charnock well fields in 1996 after finding methyl tertiary-butyl ether (MTBE) and later trichloroethylene (TCE) and 1,1-Dichloroethene (1,1-DCE) in the water.

Protecting The Environment And Reducing Cost Through Improved Sludge Quality

Sassuolo WWTP operators noticed high levels of zinc in generated sludge. Here is how Kando helped prevent metal contamination, allowing the sludge to be applied for agriculture.

A New Paradigm In Aeration Technology

The DO2E organization sprang from one individual’s attempt to solve an aeration problem in a fish hatchery and realizing that his device to do so had many other applications as well. This device broke up algal blooms as well as aerating, and it was only a short step to modify it into breaking up FOG (fats, oils, and grease) deposits in grease traps and lift stations. This device was patented, thus DO2E was born.

TASKMASTER® Multi-Stage Shredding System for Pharmaceutical Plant Security

A pharmaceutical manufacturer was faced with major waste management concerns. They urgently needed a powerful shredding system capable of quickly and efficiently reducing bulky pharmaceutical rejects, packaging and literature to an unrecognizable condition. The company had recently purchased shredding equipment to replace older units, which were failing, but soon encountered unexpected problems. Pharmaceutical material passing through the carbon steel shredders often contained corrosive chemicals, which eventually eroded the units.
