INTRODUCTION In municipal and industrial water treatment, the “set it and forget it” mentality regarding chemical feed systems is a primary driver of operational inefficiency and compliance violations. While metering pumps and storage tanks are the muscles of the system, the instrumentation—specifically flow meters and level transmitters—acts as the nervous system. A surprising industry statistic […]
1. INTRODUCTION In the architecture of municipal and industrial water and wastewater treatment, chemical feed and storage systems function as the critical control points for process efficacy and regulatory compliance. Unlike passive infrastructure, these systems are dynamic, requiring precise manipulation of fluid chemistry to achieve coagulation, flocculation, disinfection, pH adjustment, and odor control. […]
Sodium Hypochlorite Dosing Calculation: A Comprehensive Guide Sodium hypochlorite dosing is essential for achieving effective disinfection in water and wastewater treatment applications. Proper dosing ensures pathogen control while minimizing chemical waste, operational risks, and regulatory non-compliance. What Is Sodium Hypochlorite? Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) is a widely used disinfectant in water and wastewater treatment due to […]
