PFOS and PFOA are man-made chemicals belonging to the group known as Per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances. Over the decades, they have seeped into various water sources. Given the potential health risks linked to prolonged PFAS /PFOA consumption, it’s crucial to find effective methods for their removal, such as Reverse Osmosis (RO) and ion selective resins […]

Pacific Water Technology recently completed water treatment skids for potable water supply for regional hospitals. These skids were designed in such a way that minimal work was required at the remote sites. The chlorination skids included automated dosing of acid and chlorine at the required set-points using pH and free chlorine as control parameters. The […]
Aerogel, a light and porous substance developed by the researchers using egg whites, has a wide range of uses, including acoustic and thermal insulation, energy storage, and water purification. As vice dean of innovation at Princeton and the Susan Dod Brown Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Craig Arnold collaborates with his lab to develop […]

Hydrosense Vs. Standard Recommissioning Procedures Full (MAINS) or Single System Disinfection (DC/HWS) STANDARD RECOMMISSIONING […]
Managing Legionella Risk in Biofilm Only 10% of Legionella bacteria can be found in free-flowing water within water systems. the other 90% is found in biofilm. However, most methods of Legionella testing look for bacteria where it is least prevalent, in free-flowing water. If left undetected and untreated, small pieces of biofilm can break away […]
