Materials of Construction Thermoplastic Piping Systems for Pharmaceutical Water Applications
(originally published in Dec 2001 “Ultrapure Water Journal”)
T he use of thermoplastic plastics in pharmaceuti- cal and biotech water and process systems is gaining greater acceptance. Water systems are often more efficiently operated when thermoplastics such as Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) and ...
Reliable monitoring and treatment of water in oil
refineries is essential for the production of petroleumbased
products, including gasoline, diesel, kerosene,
heating oil, and byproducts for plastics and a variety of
lubricants. There are three process areas within refineries
that require large amounts of water: cooling units, desalter
units and wastewater treatment.
Using recycled water for cooling molds and vacuum pumps in a Kentucky glass factory was tried and failed. So, municipal water was used once again as a cool heat sink at a hot price -- $10,000 a month hot. After investigating new recycle options, a new water treatment system was installed in the fall of 2006 resulting in a full payback in just 33 days. Nearly 10% of the world’s incandescent light ...
Many municipal water treatment plants utilize Ozone Treatment Systems to produce clean water for residential and industrial users. While all the various types of water treatment systems have their advantages and disadvantages, Ozone (O3) systems provide excellent disinfection and avoid some of the chemical byproduct problems experienced with the use of chlorination. Ozone treatment systems also ...
Like many areas of the U.S., northeast Colorado suffers from periods of drought that make water a critical and valuable resource for local agriculture and surrounding communities. Over the past 45-years CCWCD has completed a series of water resource projects to improve supply. At the same time, the district also is tasked with managing the efficient use of water.
The staff at CCWCD and ...
The need to conserve water is becoming a common concern throughout the world. Whether this is due to the cost of water, availability of water, or environmental concerns, water conservation is becoming a major focal point, both in the public and private sector. In those areas where renewable water resources are limited, and in regions where there are significant environmental concerns and costs ...
The Analytical Side to Compliance with Drinking Water Regulations
Two new U.S. Federal regulations went into effect in 2009 that directly impact drinking water utilities that use chemical disinfection. Specifically, the Ground Water Rule (1) and the EPA Method 334.0 (2) are now in place with the purpose of improving the quality of drinking water.
This paper summarizes the key elements of the ...
The addition of a reverse osmosis (RO) system to a boiler plant which originally only sodium zeolite sof- tened the make up water significantly improves the purity of the boiler feedwater. The lower dissolved solids water produced by the RO reduces the poten- tial for boiler and steam system deposition and cor- rosion enabling our customers to reduce boiler blowdown, saving both energy and water ...
This paper discusses the technical, economic and operational issues addressed in improving RO feedwater to acceptable standards for the Point Beach Nuclear Plant. The final design, incorporating membrane filtration, resulted in a more economical and reliable system to operate and allowed full utilization of the capacity of the RO system.
We Energies' Point Beach Nuclear power plant, in operation ...
Water treatment applications that pass the acid test
Over the past several years, many water treatment plants in the southeast United States faced troubles with their existing piping systems that used sulfuric acid as a method of chemical dosing. Problems have included pipeline damage, leaks, joint failures, chemical spillage and downtime. It has been determined that these problems have been ...
Quick and easy! Just plug in the logger circuit board and the Greyline instrument will automatically load the logger menu system. It takes about 2 minutes ...
The MECHATRON gravimetric and volumetric feeder can be quickly and easily disassembled from the non process side eliminating the need to remove upper ...
