Reclaimed Water on the Rise, and more..

New Report Bullish on ‘Reclaimed Water' Thanks to recent advancements, so-called "reclaimed water" — municipal wastewater that is treated so it can be safely reused — could be a significant addition to available water resources in the U.S., according to a new report published by the National Research Council. In addition to potential uses in agriculture and industry, reclaimed water can give a boost to the nation's drinking water supplies. As for health risks posed by reclaimed water, the report points to new studies showing that these risks are no greater, and may actually be less, than the risks of using existing water supplies.   MSA — World Leader in Fixed Gas and Flame Detection MSA — The Safety Company Energy Efficient Digitally Controlled Metering Pump Walchem, an Iwaki America Company MSA is known globally for our high standards, innovation, customer service, reliability, and quality.

Resource Management & Supply . . . Learn More Platform Tests for Waterborne Threats   A UK utility has purchased an advanced analytical monitoring platform to help ensure that its 1.6 million customers get safe water. As part of the utility's regional monitoring system, the platform can test for nearly 30 different elements in drinking water and sewage networks. The platform works by focusing an ion beam with a special interface. Integration Boosts Web-based Resource Management The integration of two software programs will reportedly allow users to produce advanced water resource management graphics in a Web browser, where results can be viewed by different people working collaboratively. Together, the two programs — an environmental workflow data-management system and a Web-based monitoring and visualization platform — are said to offer greater processing and visualization capabilities over the Web. Treatment . . . Learn More Mobile System for Drill-site Treatment Developed for hydraulic fracturing, a mobile integrated treatment system(ITS) can treat "frack" flowback water at a rate of nearly 900 gpm, according to the manufacturer. The new ITS isdesigned for easy transportation to drilling sites, as well as easy setup at the sites. In addition, the redesigned ITS allows reuse of water for future drilling.
