MetalGuard™ Lead Alert!™ — a novel automated and unattended real-time lead corrosion risk management system for monitoring the risk of exposure to lead contamination. MetalGuard Lead Alert! is specifically designed to alert utilities and consumers of an increased risk of lead contamination, before lead contamination occurs and impacts consumers and their health, by providing high frequency, timely and accurate predictive data on dissolved and total lead in water samples.

AMS introduces MetalGuard™ Lead Alert!™ — a novel automated and unattended real-time lead corrosion risk management system for monitoring the risk of exposure to lead contamination. MetalGuard Lead Alert! is specifically designed to address lead contamination concerns by providing high frequency, timely and accurate predictive data on dissolved and total lead in water samples to alert utilities and consumers of an increased risk of lead contamination, before lead contamination occurs and impacts consumers and their health.

SafeGuard™ is an automated lead analyzer for monitoring exposure to lead contamination from lead pipes, solder and brass fittings. It is designed to be used independently or in conjunction with MetalGuard™ Lead Alert! ™ when this warns of an increase in contamination risk.

The benefits of using this novel analyzer include the rapid analysis of the safety of drinking water in homes, schools, day-cares exposed to the risk of lead contamination, delivery of results in minutes to identify contamination sites far faster than laboratory-based analysis, accurate measurement of total lead, a feature not available with hand-held analyzers and rapid delivery of results ensures quarantined sites can be released more quickly after lead remediation.

Faced with high IEX process waste disposal costs, TRUMPF, a manufacturer of laser diodes made from Gallium Arsenide substrates (GaAs) wafers, undertook efforts to optimize the IEX process and produce less hazardous waste. One of the process improvements included the installation of the MetalGuard Arsenic online arsenic analyzer to continuously measure influent and effluent arsenic levels in real-time, providing TRUMPF with a stream of accurate and reliable arsenic data to measure the performance of its IEX system and ensure regulatory compliance. Timely and accurate arsenic results enabled TRUMPF to optimize rinse water reuse as well as to optimize and reduce IEX backwash frequencies, increasing media performance and reducing hazardous waste generation. These process improvements have resulted in an estimated annual cost savings of $100K for the facility.

BlueTech Research’s Divya Inna speaks with Rick Bacon, CEO of AMS, about the company’s real-time water quality monitoring and intelligent water treatment solutions showcased at the Innovations Pavilion at WEFTEC 2019.

Rick Bacon, CEO of AMS, participates in CROC Tank, organized by BlueTech Research at WEFTEC 2019. Bacon discusses AMS’ THM-100™ online analyzer and its capability to provide water treatment plants high-density THM and THM formation potential data to optimize their processes and manage disinfection byproducts effectively.

Rick Bacon, CEO of AMS, discusses AMS’ real-time water quality monitoring and intelligent water treatment solutions with Water & Wastes Digest’s editor Bob Crossen, who asked exhibitors at the WEFTEC19 Innovation Showcase for a 60 second spiel about their companies and products, and this is the result.

At the BlueTech Research breakfast at WEFTEC 2019, Rick Bacon, CEO of AMS, discusses why DBPs remain a significant water quality concern for water treatment plants that lack real-time accurate and reliable data in order to make timely and accurate decisions. With AMS’ THM-100™ online analyzer, treatment plants can gain access to high-density THM and THM formation potential data to optimize their processes and ensure public health.
