Multiple uses for infrared gas sensors
For the efficient monitoring and optimization of manufacturing processes, reliable sensors are essential. Applications are not only concerned with production, but also stocking, shipment, controls, as well as security. Besides measuring established criteria like temperature and pressure, the... >>
Pre-treatment improves effluent quality
The collection system is often viewed as a means to transport wastewater to the treatment facility. However, many hours of retention time in the collection system can negatively impact the wastewater treatment process. Growth of filamentous bacteria and sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB), which leads... >>
Kingston chooses biological aerated filters for wastewater treatment plant upgrade
The Ravensview Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP) currently provides primary level wastewater treatment from the City of Kingston, Ontario, including Pittsburgh Township and the Canadian Armed Forces Base in Kingston. The existing process at Ravensview WPCP includes: mechanical screening for... >>
Anaerobic membrane bioreactor up to food waste treatment challenge
Although all food processors have to deal with wastewater generated in their operations, the characteristics of the effluent exiting their facilities can vary greatly, requiring different processing technologies for the most efficient handling of the wastewater. Ken’s Foods of Marlborough,... >>
Fuel-Free Regenerative Catalytic Oxidizer
High natural gas prices and a desire to create a smaller carbon footprint have led plant operators and air pollution control equipment suppliers to seek alternative technologies to reduce operating costs associated with emissions control. Although the Regenerative Thermal Oxidizer (RTO) is... >>
