The Best Way To Remove Manganese From Drinking Water
Manganese testing will be required under the U.S. EPA’s upcoming Fourth Unregulated Contaminant Monitoring Rule (UCMR 4). The EPA uses data from the UCMR program to develop regulatory decisions for emerging contaminants. This indicates a potential for manganese to become a primary contaminant in the future.
Ultrasonic vs. Coriolis Meters: Which Makes Sense For My Application?
Among flow metering technologies, Coriolis meters are known for their extreme accuracy, often between +/-0.1% to 0.2%. However, this extreme accuracy comes with an extreme price tag. Before committing to such an investment, it’s important to know the pros and cons of Coriolis meter technology and how it compares to alternative technologies that are more economically priced, such as ultrasonic meters.
Turning The Tide On Water Scarcity With High-Efficiency Technology
As climate change exacerbates our access to water and places increased demand on the water sector, the need for decarbonization in water management has become an urgent priority. This challenge is compounded by the water sector’s substantial energy usage, which accounts for 4% of global electricity consumption and 2–3% of global greenhouse gas emissions.
