Heat exchangers for energy recovery
28 July, 2009In the face of ever-increasing energy costs, many Australian and New Zealand manufacturers and service providers are using the Dimpleflo Modular Heat Exchangers to recover energy from any warm or hot product or effluent.
Wastewater treatment in Melbourne
28 July, 2009Enough sewage to fill 16 Olympic-sized swimming pools is processed each day by Yarra Valley Water treatment plants dotted around Melbourne. And because reliability is everything when it comes to sewage, it seems strange at first that many of the 17 Hurll Nu-Way Aerzen blowers at the front line of treatment are at least 10 years old, with some nearing 30 years of service.
Flowmeter for the water industry
28 May, 2009 byThe Water Master flowmeters are specifically designed for the water, wastewater and sewage markets. The range is available in the most commonly installed flowmeter sizes: 40-300 mm.
Heat exchanger
07 April, 2009 byThe Casella 12 m Dimpleflo heat exchanger is a cost-effective solution for applications with limited space requirements. The units are built with 12 m long tubing, therefore fewer bends are needed, resulting in a 30% beneficial saving. Increased performance due to its length and configuration has also provided benefits.
22 Module Dimpleflo Modubloc heat exchanger
02 April, 2009The 22 Module Dimpleflo Modubloc heat exchanger with 150 mm flowpath is suitable for use in a large winery. The design provides increased energy efficiencies, with higher heat transfer coefficients and lower pressure drops on the product side, all within a more compact footprint.
Plastic ball check valves
24 November, 2008The Series BCV are economical, thermoplastic ball check valves suitable for chemical and wastewater applications.
100 toilets in Brisbane CBD
20 November, 2008While we laugh at the adventures of Kenny’s World exploring toilets, there are 2.6 billion people, or 40% of the global population, who don’t have any access to safe sanitation. The deaths of 75,000 children could be prevented this year in South-East Asia and the Pacific with access to basic sanitation.
Wastewater analyser
22 September, 2008Endress+Hauser has launched an inline analyser for municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants. The STIP-scan device reduces costly sampling and maintenance procedures by operating directly in the process.
NSW industrial gear-unit service facility expanded
19 September, 2008In support of Australia's demanding water/wastewater sector, drives solutions group SEW-Eurodrive has expanded its NSW industrial gear-unit service facility.
Self-primer pump
22 May, 2008The Weir Self-Primer (WSP) is a rugged, dependable self-priming end suction centrifugal pump. The pump is suitable for a range of solids-handling jobs where a self-priming application is required. It is available in a 3, 4, 6, 8 or 10" suction/discharge.
Metering pump with automatic vent
22 May, 2008Gas-emitting media in metering applications can often reduce pump output or even prevent the pumped medium from being delivered. To avoid this situation, the pumps generally need to be bled manually in such applications. This procedure can be performed simply, conveniently and safely by the delta diaphragm metering pump with the new venting module.
Backflow prevention device
23 January, 2008The Watts Water Technologies range of backflow prevention devices stops the reverse flow of contaminated water in piping systems from entering the potable water supply.
Radical approach benefits slime control technology
22 November, 2007Two Australian research centres are joining their forces in a radical approach to biofilm control.
Membrane filtration for wastewater
22 October, 2007Sumitomo has released a range of PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) membranes designed for water microfiltration and sewage treatment. The MBR (membrane bioreactor) module is suitable for water purification applications such as recycling water for farming and gardening, recycled drinking water, sewage wastewater treatment and recycled industrial water.
Electric actuator for quarter turn valves
20 October, 2006The Biffi F02 is a compact, intelligent, electric actuator which incorporates all the advanced variables needed to provide effective control in large and complex plants.
