The decision by the Alkimos Seawater Alliance to incorporate a groundwater treatment plant into the design of the Alkimos Seawater Desalination Plant in Western Australia is leading to safer, more sustainable drinking water. ACCIONA, as Lead Constructor, is working with Water Corporation and Jacobs to deliver the Alkimos facility, which is the first desalination plant of this scale in Western ...
Across the food and beverage industry, the mindset is shifting toward viewing wastewater as a source of value that can be recovered and reused.This approach aligns with Fluence’s integrated water management philosophy, which brings together treatment, water reuse, and resource recovery into a single, efficient system. ...
Humidity sensors measure atmospheric water vapor concentration to forecast crop water loss and optimize irrigation timing. ...
Regulatory guidance notes that maintaining adequate dissolved oxygen levels helps prevent disease and supports digestion and beneficial bacteria that contribute to water quality.Limitations of surface aeratorsHigh energy demand from lifting large volumes of water into the air.Treated water is predominantly the surface layer; bottom ...
Nano bubble water oxygenation systems provide a scalable approach to revitalizing high-volume industrial water streams by saturating the liquid with dissolved oxygen through micro-scale gas bubbles.The technology injects pure oxygen gas into stagnant fluids to form microscopic bubbles that remain suspended in the liquid, enabling efficient gas transfer and ...
Large areas of lakes, fjords, and coastal waters are increasingly affected by low oxygen levels. Fish kills in shallow lakes during warm, windless summer days are becoming more common, and “dead zones” continue to expand in marine environments worldwide. FrykenSpa™, a Norwegian patented innovation (Patent No. 349212, PCT pending), introduces a new way to enjoy recreational ...
Executive Summary Chilmark Pond (200 acres) on Martha's Vineyard achieved 3× faster control of harmful algal blooms after deploying an MPC-Buoy in July 2025. Independent monitoring confirmed bloom dissipation in 8 days during the 2025 season, compared with 29 days in 2022 without intervention. CBS News Boston coverage in April 2026 highlighted community restoration and safe swimming conditions, ...
Manure lagoons receive a continuous load of organic material—manure, feed residue, bedding, and wash water. Over time, not all material fully degrades; it accumulates, segregates into layers, and forms stable structures. ...
A Sound Solution for Platypus Habitat: King Island Reservoir, Tasmania Improving water quality and supporting biodiversity with EnviroSonic The King Island Reservoir at Grassy, Tasmania, is a narrow 750-metre-long water body that serves as the primary water supply for the island. It is also home to a significant population of platypus. In 2012, three EnviroSonic ES300 ultrasonic ...
Across global fresh produce markets, energy and water efficiency are no longer “nice to have”, they are business-critical. Rising input costs, tightening environmental regulations, and increasing pressure from retailers and consumers are all driving processors to rethink how their operations use resources. For many, the challenge is clear: how to process more product, more ...
Triple A S.A. E.S.P., the utility supplying drinking water to approximately 15 municipalities in the Barranquilla region, has installed two MPC-Buoys at the Dársena Río Magdalena, a river intake on the Magdalena River, to address algae at the source before treatment.Context: Algae risk at river intakesThe Magdalena River is Colombia's primary freshwater source for Barranquilla and surrounding ...
Since integrating the technology, Coolpack has reported crystal-clear process water with microbial counts that structurally remain even further below their strict internal standards than before. This improved water stability has led to fewer cleaning cycles and increased operational "peace of mind." For companies looking to optimize their ...
Historically, many plants, particularly in colder climates, relied on gas or oil-fired burners to heat aggregates and mixing water to achieve optimal concrete temperatures. Low-carbon technologies are displacing these combustion-based systems with high-efficiency electric alternatives. ...
In 2026, China’s water quality monitoring framework has entered a pivotal stage. With stricter regulations under the revised Urban Sewage Treatment Plant Pollutant Discharge Standard and the newly implemented Ecological Environment Monitoring Regulation, the emphasis on ensuring safe and sustainable water use has never been stronger. Among various ...
Stress rises as oxygen levels decrease, reducing feeding efficiency and growth.Low oxygen can occur due to:High stocking densityWarm water temperaturesOrganic waste buildupAlgal bloomsPoor water circulationThus, it is necessary to ensure optimal oxygen levels. ...
Tetra Tech’s Luke Stephenson, digital automation systems expert, shares how utilities can modernize infrastructure, improve resilience, and integrate emerging technologies. This article was originally published in Environmental Business Journal, Volume 38 Numbers 11/12: Q4 2025 Environmental Consulting & Engineering Industry. Luke discusses how utilities are ...
Purpose The purposes of this technical memorandum are briefly outlined as: To evaluate the wastewater discharge payment method used by Metro Wastewater Reclamation District (METRO). To develop a wastewater discharge payment model applied to Industrial Park Water and Sanitation District (District). Based on the wastewater discharge payment model (Payment Model), to predict the ...
Untreated water degrades heat-transfer efficiency, increases downtime, and elevates repair costs.Modern cooling towers can be treated with advanced water treatment strategies designed to prevent:Mineral scale buildupPipe and heat exchanger corrosionBiological fouling and algaeLegionella risksWater wastageIn addition, data-driven insights enable operators to ...
Across global post-harvest operations, rising costs are reshaping how processors think about efficiency. Labour shortages, increasing energy prices, and growing pressure on water use are no longer isolated challenges, they are interconnected forces influencing long-term operational viability. In response, automation is evolving. No longer focused solely on throughput or speed, modern automation ...
Introduction A bloom doesn’t always arrive with a neat, predictable timeline. One week the water looks normal, the next you get green streaks along the downwind shore, then the surface turns into a patchwork. If that shift continues on to become large scale algal blooms, it’s no longer just a cosmetic issue, it’s an operational issue that requires careful management. For ...
