Rather than treating the pump as an isolated piece of equipment, this article examines pump performance as part of the entire desalination process.
The key question is not simply whether a pump is efficient at its rated operating point, but whether the complete pumping system is operating at the right flow, pressure, efficiency range, and control conditions throughout its lifecycle.
Choosing the right valve is critical to reliable water and wastewater operations. This guide reviews common industrial valve types, selection considerations, materials, actuation options and typical applications across treatment plants, pipelines and water infrastructure systems.
Digital technologies are changing how waste-to-energy facilities monitor equipment and manage plant performance. This article explores the role of AI, operational data and predictive maintenance in improving asset reliability, maintenance planning and day-to-day plant operations.
Granular activated carbon is widely used to remove organic contaminants, odors and other unwanted compounds from water. This guide explains how GAC filtration works, where it is commonly applied and the key factors to consider when designing and operating activated carbon treatment systems.
Pipe leaks and unexpected bursts remain major challenges for water utilities. This article looks at how digital monitoring, sensors and data analytics can help identify network problems earlier, improve leak detection and support more effective water loss control.
Industrial valves used in drinking water systems face growing requirements for material safety, reliability and regulatory compliance. This article examines how the EU Drinking Water Directive affects valve selection and what suppliers and buyers should consider when serving the European market.
A sourcing-focused guide to the 2027 EU Drinking Water Directive, covering material compliance, supplier audits and transition deadlines.
A 2026 guide to valve selection for water and wastewater applications, including materials, actuation, corrosion resistance and procurement.
How biosolids treatment and resource recovery can turn wastewater residuals into energy, nutrients and circular-economy value.
Why utilities are upgrading existing water infrastructure with smart controls, efficient equipment and targeted retrofits instead of full replacement.
