A Practical Technical Review of Environmental Fly Management for Wastewater Plants, Lift Stations, Lagoons, and Industrial Water Operations Water treatment facilities are built to manage biological load, moisture, solids, and flow control under demanding conditions. ...
In lagoon- or reservoir-based wastewater treatment, ammonia removal can be optimized by applying biofilm-only MABR wastewater treatment. A nitrification-only approach to wastewater treatment focuses on doing one job — well Membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) systems are increasingly used in wastewater ...
Industrial wastewater facility upgrade, higher capacity, and easier maintenance with EDI Fixed Grid aeration system. Project Information Project Type: Industrial wastewater treatment Completion Date:January 2023 Treatment Objectives: Design flow: 1 MGD Treatment requirements: BOD and Nutrient Removal ...
Cheese manufacturer aeration upgrade allows increased wastewater capacity while staying odor free. Project Information Project Type: Industrial Wastewater Treatment – Cheese Manufacturer Completion Date: Summer 2010 Treatment Objectives: Design Flow: 3,000 ppd BOD Effluent Objectives: Odor free and increase capacity to meet needs for 1 million pounds of daily milk production. ...
Consider installing floating baffles when: Designing or upgrading any pond, lagoon or tank where settling, biological treatment or disinfection depends on retention time (for example, maturation ponds, settling basins, clearwells or balance tanks) (Chatoyer Environmental 2025). ...
The farm operates wastewater ponds totaling over 200,000, requiring reliable seepage protection and a durable, economical lining system. ...
When aging lagoons meet modern regulations, choices must be made Wastewater lagoons have been around for decades. They offer a reliable and affordable solution for treating wastewater, especially for small rural communities. While this approach to wastewater treatment has been effective for years, ...
SUEZ were contracted by the Public Works Authority of Qatar, ASHGHAL, to remediate the Al Karaana Lagoons. The lagoons covered more than 4 square kilometres and are situated approximately 60 km south west of Doha in Qatar. The site had previously been used for dumping up to 60,000 m3/day of untreated industrial and municipal wastewater from ...
Challenge Dave has a four acre lagoon with a high BOD contributor. This high incoming BOD sucks most of the oxygen out of the water causing the lagoon to give off a horrendous smell. With many complaints from the town and its citizens, Dave had to do something quick. ...
From food safety to power-plant performance, these were the water challenges, technologies, and solutions driving the most attention in 2025 In a year defined by tightening regulations, rising water stress, and growing pressure on industries to do more with less, certain topics emerged as priorities for operators and industries navigating these pressures. The following five articles drew the ...
As industries across agriculture, food processing, wastewater treatment, and environmental operations face increasing pressure to reduce nuisance-insect activity, a new challenge has emerged: How do we manage harmful fly presence without compromising pollinators, ecological balance, or community health? Traditional neurotoxic pesticides—such as pyrethroids and organophosphates—have ...
The barn wash-down and manure wastewater is collected, the solids are separated for feed and fertilizer, and the wastewater flows into a lagoon. ...
What They Mean for Lagoon-Based Wastewater Treatment Across North America, regulatory agencies are tightening the screws on phosphorus discharge limits. Once considered a moderate concern, phosphorus is now a central compliance focus due to its role in promoting eutrophication and harmful algal blooms. For wastewater lagoon ...
A smarter way to meet tightening nutrient discharge limits As nitrogen regulations tighten, lagoon-based wastewater systems face increasing pressure to perform. From Mexico’s new discharge standards to Iowa’s nutrient reduction strategy, utilities are being pressed to curb nitrogen pollution to meet increasingly stringent regulatory requirements. ...
Introduction Dredging and slurry pumping operations often face significant challenges due to the abrasive and dense nature of the materials involved. To tackle these issues, the submersible dredge pump has become a preferred solution across many industries. Designed to operate fully submerged, this pump offers superior efficiency and reliability when handling heavy solids and abrasive slurries. ...
Oxygen supplementation strategies to maintain lagoon health. Over time, wastewater lagoons accumulate sediment. This decreases the effective treatment volume, decreases hydraulic retention time (HRT), and can lower available oxygen in the water column. Suspended solids, organic matter, and microbial byproducts are constantly added and settle to ...
Instead of replacing underperforming lagoons, adding treatment solutions can bring facilities into compliance Lagoon-based wastewater treatment systems have long been a cost-effective and reliable solution, particularly in rural settings. ...
To ensure proper aeration of the lagoon at its wastewater treatment plant, the industrial company “les volailles de Keranna” initially used inclined aerators with a power of 22 kW. ...
These mosquito like insects are often seen swarming around wastewater treatment plants and sewage lagoons because it is an ideal environment for their larvae, often called red worms or blood worms to grow. The red worms cling to solids and form cocoon like structures to protect themselves while feeding off sludge, bacteria floc, and nitrifying bacteria in the ...
Summary This case study evaluates the financial viability and effectiveness of Sludge RX in reducing sludge volumes and restoring loading capacity in a wastewater lagoon system. Pre, mid, and post sludge depth measurements were utilized to assess the physical results. ...
