Turning landfill wastewater into drinking water quality

Wanner International’s seal-less pumps are enabling the production of effluent water with drinking water quality from a contaminated landfill site. Wanner has supplied three, T100 ultra-high-pressure reverse osmosis (RO) process pumps to APATEQ, manufacturers of custom water treatment systems.

Water treatment company views critical assets data in real-time

MAC Solutions has supplied its Fetch Data Collector software to Nordikeau, a water and wastewater treatment company based in Quebec province, Canada. The software enables Nordikeau to log data from critical assets and equipment in real-time (every 10 seconds), providing data for alarms and early notifications of any equipment or process issues.

Fast, convenient water quality monitoring could hold the key

Water is used in so many ways throughout the food and beverage industry, even as the final product, which means the quality of that water needs to be carefully monitored. With such an influence on the finished product, precise water quality monitoring can provide the key to consistent quality output, so is it time to look at the next generation of compact continuous analysis solutions?

AI innovation could help consumers understand water use with minimal disruption

An innovative application of the latest Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology has the potential to bring unprecedented insight into residential and industrial water usage.

Oliver Pogmore, of AVT Reliability, explains how ultrasound technology can help avoid energy waste and increase operational efficiency.
Batteries for test and measurement(17/12/2019)

In early 2019, scientists across the globe voted in favour of modernising the traditional definition of a kilogram. Historically, it had been based on the weight of Le Grand K – a cylinder of platinum and iridium stored in a locked Parisian vault. Here, Neil Oliver, Technical Marketing Manager at Accutronics, explains why design engineers specifying batteries for test and measurement equipment should care.
