Introduction In the design of municipal water treatment plants and industrial wastewater facilities, the butterfly valve is often treated as a commodity item. This assumption—that “a valve is just a valve”—is a primary driver of unexpected operational expenditure (OPEX) and premature system failure. Engineers frequently encounter scenarios where a valve specified for general isolation fails […]

Introduction to Flow Control Selection In the complex landscape of municipal water and wastewater treatment design, the “Bill of Materials” (BOM) is often the battleground where reliability meets budget. One of the frequent evaluation points for mechanical engineers and plant superintendents is the selection of piping specialties and isolation devices. When analyzing Proco vs Bray […]
