MetalGuard™ Online Arsenic Analyzer
MetalGuard™ Arsenic is the first fully automated, online arsenic analyzer for monitoring drinking water arsenic levels. The online analyzer provides high frequency real-time data on arsenic contaminant levels in thirty minutes with sensitivity down to 1 ppb.
Application Brief: Tewksbury Water Treatment Plant Demonstrates Aeration System and Online THM Monitor
The Town of Tewksbury, Massachusetts, tested an aeration system for additional THM removal. The Tewksbury WTP measured real-time influent and effluent THM values using the online THM-100™ analyzer. Prior to using the online THM monitor, plant operators waited to receive analytical results from external analysis, often conservatively operating the facility since real-time THM values were not known. The real-time data provided by the online monitor made THM formation within the WTP and distribution system easy to identify.
Case Study: The Brunswick & Topsham Water District Optimizes Operation and Validates Laboratory Results with Online THM Analyzer
The Brunswick & Topsham Water District (BTWD) in Maine was receiving high THM results despite implementation of best practices. The use of the THM-100™ online THM analyzer has proven a valuable tool enabling BTWD to optimize operations, better understand treatment processes, resolve THM compliance concerns and validate laboratory performance and results.
News: Online Cr(VI) Monitor Validates RCOF Process
A California Water Utility experiencing elevated levels of hexavalent chromium [Cr(VI)] in their drinking water supply is the first commercial application to use the MetalGuard™ Cr(VI) real-time water quality monitor developed by AMS. The monitor was installed to provide high frequency, reliable, and accurate data on hexavalent and total chromium levels during the pilot test of a Reduction/Coagulation/Oxidation/Filtration (RCOF) process.
Case Study: Online Monitoring of THMs at Scottish Water
For more than five years Scottish Water has relied on the reliability and accuracy of the online THM-100™ monitor to continuously monitor THM levels at a number of their facilities. The online THM monitors have allowed Scottish Water to consistently monitor, maintain, optimize and respond to any on-going THM concerns in a very timely fashion. The THM-100 proved especially valuable at the Tullich WTWs when the facility tested and implemented an aeration system to further minimize THM formation.
News: EU Utility Receives Accreditation for THM-100™
Aigües de Barcelona, the leading water utility in Spain, has received accreditation to the ISO/IEC 17025:2005 Standard for using AMS’ online THM-100™ analyzer to continuously monitor THMs in its drinking water supply network, which serves 3,000,000 million inhabitants across metropolitan Barcelona. In addition to providing the utility with contract compliance and process optimization data, THM readings can now be used to submit regulatory compliance data.
Case Study: Santa Cruz Adopts THM Analyzer for DBP Management
The City of Santa Cruz Water Department (SCWD) has adopted the online THM-100™ THM analyzer for DBP management. Real-time and reliable data on THM and THM Formation Potential levels within the Graham Hill Water Treatment Plant and distribution network have been provided to the SCWD by the online analyzer. The THM-100 online analyzer has aided the SCWD in daily operations and management of feasibility studies to reduce distribution systems THM levels.
Case Study: THM Analyzer Proves Valuable in Birmingham
The Shades Mountain Filter Plant operated by the Birmingham Water Works Board (BWWB) has benefited from the real time high frequency data on daily THM values provided by the THM-100™ online analyzer. The online analyzer has proven valuable to THM mitigation strategy and optimization.
Case Study: Arizona Facility Uses Ammonia-Laden Centrate for THM Control
The Pima County Regional Wastewater Reclamation Department is using the THM-100™ to optimize its chlorine injection process. The Tres Rios Water Reclamation Facility is using ammonia-laden centrate for THM control. The THM-100 monitor enables the facility to optimize its chlorine injection process and minimize the formation of THMs in its effluent water by providing the operational staff with immediate and accurate daily reports on THM levels.
