06.07.23 -- UF/RO System Treating Mine-Influenced Water To Remove Selenium

A phosphorus mine in Wyoming needed to treat high selenium concentrations leaching into the surface water. Read the full case study to learn how Toray projected to save the plant's energy costs for years.

A power plant experienced an accident when a pipe broke after it was sand-dusted during maintenance. The pump location, including the turbines and control room, was completely flooded. Read about the customer's search for a cost-effective flow measurement solution to drive a safety shutdown valve in case the pipe should break again.

The fuels that propel modern society have been found in water supplies all over the world. Some fuel-related contaminants can be found at a majority of the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (U.S. EPA) National Priority List Sites, where they pose a potential threat to human and environmental health.

A major multinational food and drink processing company requested support to validate the performance of existing electromagnetic flow meters, which were failure-prone, in their water treatment plants. 

While some water quality parameters may get more attention in industrial settings, few are more critical than conductivity. Understanding conductivity monitoring for industrial applications — where it is needed, how it works, and how to leverage the appropriate instruments and standards in order to pinpoint it — will unlock huge gains in efficiency, effectiveness, and regulatory compliance.

Watch this video about the Blue Mountain Biogas plant, which operates by taking diluted hog manure from the "finishing" barns into an influent basin. From there it is transferred to a heat exchanger facility and then into two in-ground digesters.
