System design and instrumentation decisions can impact the efficiency and maintenance requirements of these pumps in wastewater applications.
WEFTEC 2020
ALEXANDRIA, Va. (Sept. 17, 2015) – Stan Meiburg, acting deputy administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), will deliver the keynote address at the Water Leaders Session - “The Impact of Leadership: Culture, Communication, and Community in Great Water Cities.” The session is part of a lineup of Monday morning programming for WEFTEC 2015—the Water Environment Federation’s (WEF) 88th annual technical exhibition and conference.
AURORA, Ill. (Sept.17, 2015) – The Grundfos S-Line of energy-efficient wastewater pumps are now locally assembled at the company’s Illinois-based Water Utility Competency Center, alongside other Grundfos brands.
Grundfos showcased the submersible wastewater pumps at the 2015 WEFTEC Annual Technical Exhibition held September 26-30 in Chicago.
Optimization of the selected submersible propeller pumps saved the facility up to $200,000 per year.
These pump types offer longevity, precision and minimal maintenance even when dealing with the harshest treatment chemicals.
New shredder pump technology can prevent costly clogging and minimize damage to equipment and municipal reclamation facilities.
These technologies allow membrane-based distillation components to be used to produce high-purity drinking water from heavily compromised water sources.
The Italian wastewater plant dropped required man-hours and saved more than 170,000 annually in landfill costs.
VFDs can reduce energy consumption and water loss in variable pumping systems.
For low-flow effluent applications, a technology used for decades in medical instrumentation has proven ideal for low and ultra-low volume metering of methanol.
The design and function of this equipment provide distinct benefits for wastewater processing.
Proper flow measurement provides an accurate and cost-effective solution for challenging operating conditions.
Wastewater treatment facilities can take advantage of the latest calculation tools to ensure NEC and OSHA compliance.
South East Water combines grinder pumps and a remote control telemetry network to improve groundwater quality and the economy in Mornington Peninsula.
As the demand for larger dredgers rises, engineers turn to computational fluid dynamics for accurate tests before delivering site prototypes.
The facility replaced old grinder pumps with stainless steel shredder pumps, which have needed no maintenance in almost two years.
Flow accelerators and hybrid mixers provide effective performance while consuming less energy to generate turbulence.
Traditional throughlet measurements are an inefficient, outdated benchmark for measuring clog resistance.
BOSTON, Mass. (July 2, 2015) – Paralyzing drought and environmental impacts on water supplies across the U.S. sunbelt—from Florida to California—have thrust wastewater reuse into the spotlight as a critical solution to minimize long-term risks to state water supplies.
LUANDA, Angola (17 June 2015) – In December 2015 the regrowth works of the Cambambe hydroelectric power station, in the Kwanza River, about 180 kilometers southeast of Luanda, the capital of Angola, will be concluded. This dam currently supplies power to the cities of Luanda, Ndalatando, Cacuaco, Malanje, Gabela, Porto Amboim and Sumbe, benefiting a population of approximately 8 million people.
