News: Massachusetts Clean Energy Center Awards University of Massachusetts Amherst and Aqua Metrology Systems a Grant to Develop an Online Raw-Water THM-Precursor Analyzer
Aqua Metrology Systems and University of Massachusetts Amherst (UMass Amherst), have partnered to develop a robust online raw-water trihalomethanes (THMs) -precursor analyzer. On 23 January 2018 they received a commitment from Massachusetts Clean Energy Center (MassCEC) through its AmplifyMass program to cost share in the development and assessment of this new online THM-Precursor analyzer.
View ResourceSafeGuard™
SafeGuard™ is an automated trace metals analyzer for monitoring municipal and industrial water and wastewater. The system provides real-time, multi-stream analysis for trace metal contaminants.
SafeGuard delivers accurate and reliable results (up to 1 ppb or ± 15%, whichever is higher) with a typical measurement time of fewer than 30 minutes. An enhanced system is available with a fast turn around time of 5 minutes without compromising accuracy. The analyzer can be used to measure up to two different trace metals contaminants on the same instrument.
Trace Metals
Contaminants such Arsenic, Chromium-6, Lead, and Selenium have come under increased regulatory pressure due to their impact on public health and the environment. The ability to obtain high frequency data and adjust contaminant remediation processes in real‐time to mitigate the impact of trace metals is only made possible through the use of the online MetalGuard™ and SafeGuard™ analyzers.
Disinfection By-products
Reliable data on THM and THM Formation Potential concentrations is required to mitigate the presence of harmful DBPs and monitor the success of THM remediation processes. Accurate and real‐time data on THM concentrations is only possible with the online THM‐100™ analyzer.
