Drinking water is supplied from various sources such as rivers, lakes, aquifers, and artificial reservoirs. The treatment methods at the water source vary significantly depending on the source itself and the impurities contained in it. The organic matter in raw water comes from naturally occurring organic matter (NOM) and organic matter that has been introduced through pollution. Organic matter in drinking water alters the color, taste, and odor of the water. Furthermore, during the disinfection process, residual chlorine can react with organic matter, potentially producing carcinogenic disinfection byproducts (DBPs) such as trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids. To avoid the generation of DBPs, it is important to measure and monitor NOM. Monitoring NOM in raw water is also the first sign of unexpected events and helps in calculating the capacity of the treatment process. *For more detailed information, please refer to the related links.

In the multi-stage process of anaerobic digestion, various types of bacteria first convert complex organic compounds into volatile fatty acids (VFA), and finally into biogas (methane). To achieve optimal results, the pH of the digester should be between 6.5 and 7.5; however, merely measuring the pH is not sufficient. To ensure sustainable and safe operation, adequate buffering capacity (Total Alkalinity, TAC) is necessary to compensate for changes in acid concentration. A digester that becomes too acidic is harmful to bacteria, especially methane-producing bacteria. The occurrence of abnormal conditions due to low pH can be very costly to address, and re-seeding the digester can take a long time. Therefore, measuring the ratio of VFA to TAC serves as a good indicator of the actual state of the digester. *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.*

This facility, owned by the Douglas County Rural Water District 3 in Kansas, operates two water treatment plants and a distribution network of 280 miles (approximately 450 km). The facility faced several issues regarding TOC measurements, as the values obtained from existing equipment did not match those from a state-certified third-party organization that was sending samples. As a solution, they introduced the "QbD1200." This allowed them to obtain highly accurate TOC data necessary for optimizing coagulant treatment, and during the demo period, they brought samples to a certified lab in Lawrence, where they found a correlation between the "QbD1200" and the data from the city of Lawrence. The team gained new confidence in the measurements, enabling them to analyze and optimize the dosage of coagulants, control the process, and reduce unnecessary chemical treatments.

The German recycled paper manufacturer Steinbeis Papier has been using a high-temperature combustion oxidation method TOC analyzer for many years, but there have been many cases where the measurement range of the existing TOC analyzer was insufficient, and it was considered necessary to replace the equipment due to aging. Therefore, taking this opportunity for an upgrade, they decided to introduce a new online TOC analysis device to measure the TOC content at the entrance and exit of the wastewater treatment plant. By installing our online TOC analyzer at the entrance of the wastewater treatment plant, the control of the water purification sedimentation treatment process has been automated. Additionally, the process control system manages the dosing of urea and phosphoric acid in real-time based on flow rate, ammonia concentration, and TOC values, ensuring an optimal nutrient ratio.

The automatic water sampler AS950 is a system that automatically samples water and stores it in a bottle. It features a lightweight design, low power consumption, and excellent mobility, making it ideal for sampling in wastewater treatment plants, rivers, industrial effluents, wastewater, and rainwater. You can choose from three types depending on the sampling scenario. This challenge is addressed by placing the compressor at the top. It is designed to be used in high humidity and corrosive environments, minimizing damage from rodents and water, while also considering environmental conservation.
