Roadside Gutter Drainage
Since its foundation in Japan in 1924, Tsurumi Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has been engaged in the manufacture, supply and sales of various pumps including submersible pumps as key products, environmental devices and related equipment. 2 units of our Tsurumi KTVE-series submersible automatic drainage pumps were chosen to drain roadside gutters of abnormally high runoff caused by an unusual increase in seasonal downpours in recent years. The customer wanted an automatic operation pump that would only run in high water and went with Tsurumi KTVE-series pump because it incorporates an electrode-type relay unit that automatically operates starting and stopping according to water height. For this particular project, two pumps were installed, one of which was fitted with an extension probe (optional
ENGIE Refrigeration Offers the QUANTUM AIR with Heat Recovery as An Option

Sustainable Optimization Boosts Energy Savings By 30% For Turkish Dairy Products Manufacturer
Turkish milk and dairy products manufacturer Yörükoğlu Süt relies on process optimization to deliver measurable sustainability gains that help boost their bottom line. After experiencing issues with pumps provided by their former supplier, the dairy turned to its packaging provider, and Alfa Laval’s Global Alliance Partner Tetra Pak, for assistance. What began as a routine visit by Alfa Laval to the Antalya processing plant evolved into a long-term partnership to bring increased running time, reduced costs, higher energy savings, and an enhanced sustainability profile to the milk processing plant.
Already well-established in the Mediterranean and Aegean regions, Yörükoğlu Süt aims to become the area’s largest producer of milk and dairy products. Yörükoğlu Süt’s dairy had been

Water Industry Innovations in 2018
As the human population of the world continues to grow rapidly, bridging the gap between supply and demand and providing access to safe, clean water has become a priority and a strategic imperative that must be continuously addressed. Thus, there is a clear need to seek out fresh ideas and new approaches to deal with the challenges of dwindling natural water supplies. Whilst there is still some methods to follow, advances in science and technology are helping to bridge this gap and drive the industry forward. The goal of many of these advances is to enhance sustainability and efficiency of production whilst reducing power usage and wastage to a minimum throughout water infrastructure networks. And the advances that will reach success will be scalable, at low cost, and ecologically
Desalination to the Rescue
The world has very little fresh water and it is running out. At tens of billions of tons yearly, the fresh water of the ice caps is falling into the salty sea which is already 97 percent of the world’s water. Rising sea levels will cause mayhem with the supplies of most of the world’s cities because they sit low down
The Growing Need for Water Treatment
Unclean water still affects large populations, posing a threat to overall wellbeing. Water treatment systems industry is forecasted to grow and meet increasing global demand. The fastest growing technology in the market is the filtration methods segment, the largest source of demand being the residential sector. Manufacturers and suppliers are closely affiliated with water purifier businesses to capitalize on opportunities, driven by investments in research and development.
Dispersed Manufacturing Drives the Industrial Filtration Market
Filtration is one of the primary procedures in the water and wastewater treatment industry. Industrial filters are used to filter the primary source of water to remove slit, pipe scale, sand, and algae. Many countries are involved in the recycling and treatment of their water resources.
Anaerobic Wastewater Treatment Process
Aerobic treatment systems such as the conventional activated sludge (CAS) process are widely adopted for treating low strength wastewater like municipal wastewater. CAS process is energy intensive due to the high aeration requirement and it also produces large quantity of sludge that has to be treated and disposed of. As a result, the operation and maintenance cost of a CAS system is considerably high. Anaerobic process for domestic wastewater treatment are an alternative that is potentially more cost-effective, particularly in the subtropical and tropical regions where the climate is warm consistently throughout the year. Anaerobic wastewater purification processes have been increasingly used in the last few decades. These processes are important because they have positive effects:
Xylem Launches New Energy Efficient Aerobic Digester Solution
Aerobic digestion is often the second largest consumer of energy, after biological treatment aeration, at a wastewater treatment plant. Xylem, a well-known global water technology company dedicated to solving the world’s most complex water issues, has launched a new aerobic digester solution under its Sanitaire brand
Increasing Needs for Sludge Removal Fuels the Sludge Treatment Market
Wastewater treatment process generates huge amounts of industrial sludge. Different industries, especially in the manufacturing sector, release wastewater in large amounts which contain chemical constituents and microorganisms.
Global Nano Silver Market Set for Growth
Nano filtration is a technique that has prospered over the past few years. According to Lenntech, Nano filtration is mainly applied in drinking water purification process steps, such as water softening, decoloring and micro pollutant removal.
Hybrid Desalination Systems: A Solution to Energy & Environmental Challenges
The hybrid desalting concept is the combination of two or more processes in order to provide better environmental solutions and a lower water cost product than either alone can provide.
Irrigation Water Management in Iran: Growing Need for Action
Only 2.7 percent of global water is available as freshwater with an appropriate quality; out of which, only 30 percent can be applied to answer human and livestock demands according to the University of Birmingham. The global demand for fresh water has been progressively increasing during the past 60 years for many reasons including rapid population, economic growth, urbanization and industrialization, intensive agricultural practices, and environmental degradation. Additionally, the stocks of freshwater resources in some regions, like the arid and semi-arid areas of Iran, have dramatically decreased due to changes in the frequency, duration and intensity of drought events. For example, the 2007-2014 drought in Iran left many internationally renowned wetlands and lakes completely dry,
Bottled Water: Growth in a Concentrated Market
The global bottled water market size is expected to reach USD215.12 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The market is estimated to register a CAGR of 7.4 percent during the forecast period as the scope, product types, and its applications are increasing across the globe. Rising
SPONGE CITY: Steps Toward a Liveable, Green and Water-Resilient City
In 2015, China launched its sponge city pilot program to tackle unwanted runoff and address water scarcity and pollution challenges, a necessary goal considering that 62 percent of Chinese cities experience flooding, 48 percent face high to extremely high-water stress and 2,100 waterways are identified as black and
Upwardly Mobile With ATEX-Approved Pumps
If the first picture that pops into your head is that of a diesel-powered, generator-type unit, then fine; there will always be a need – but aside from diesel not striking the right environmental chords, what if your mobile pump has to meet the demands of ATEX? Chalwyn valves and Spark Arrestors certainly do their job to meet Health & Safety requirements, but they do not, for example, control surface temperatures in the T4 range of 135°C.
Such are the rigorous and sometimes complicated demands of ATEX that it is not uncommon for pump users to position control panels away from the ATEX area in order to comply with the regulation. Not the end of the world, but hardly what you’d call convenient. For an increasing number in industry though, that first picture of a mobile pump is beginning to
Variable Area Flowmeters offer Economy and Value
There are many sophisticated ‘high-tech’ instruments available for flow measurement, but not all applications require the technology of those more complex instruments. In fact, in some applications simple flowmeters offer many advantages over the more technical instruments. The basic principle of flow measurement is:
