Held at McCormick Place (Chicago, Ill.) October 18 – 22, the Water Environment Federation’s (WEF; Alexandria, Va.) Annual Technical Exhibition and Conference, WEFTEC 08, promises water quality education, training and access to cutting-edge technologies. With an attendence of over 20,000…
Dow Water & Process Solutions Designed with increased area and length to yield cost savings on system design and fabrication, the new Ultrafiltration SFP-2880 (photo) is the largest pressurized ultrafiltration module on the market, says the manufacturer. Ideal for a…
With the new generation of sludgeforce decanters, the energy consumption has been reduced to 0.7 kWh/m3 compared to 1.3–1.5 kWh/m3 required by conventional decanters. This achievement has been made possible by design changes, such as constructing the machine for extreme…
The 1,500-m2 Puron module for membrane bioreactor (MBR) applications features an optimized permeate extraction manifold and air supply lines, thus reducing the number of piping connections during installation. Designed for large-scale MBR projects, the module promises optimal solids management and…
Siemens Water Technologies The Petro membrane bioreactor (MBR) system (photo) has been specially designed for the petroleum, petrochemical and other chemical process industries (CPI). It is a wastewater treatment process that combines various biological treatment processes with an integrated, immersed…
GenGuard 8000 offers the capability to use less lower-quality water in the cooling process, while avoiding corrosion and fouling problems. This extension of the existing GenGuard product line also reduces the need for sulfuric acid for pH control in cooling…
The Polaris range of water-for-injection (WFI) products is designed in accordance with GAMP, cGMP, ISPE and FDA guidelines to meet the product quality specifications of USP, Ph Eur and other international pharmacopoeia standards. Polaris MED multiple effect stills use a…
Krohne The Waterflux 3070 is an electromagnetic water meter for applications in the water and wastewater industries. Its 15-yr battery life makes it suited to applications where no power is available. The device also has the option of a GSM…
Water-supply issues are emerging as a national concern with certain sectors coming under increasing scrutiny. This is certainly the case with the ethanol industry. State discharge regulations dictate that plant designs incorporate technological solutions to minimize water use. These designs…
A research team from the University of South Australia (Adelaide; www.unisa.edu.au) and the East China Normal University (Shanghai; www.ecnu.edu.cn) has developed a capacitive deionization technology (CDI) that uses graphene-like nanoflakes as electrodes, instead of conventionally used activated carbon (AC) materials.…
