Overcoming Chemical Dosing Challenges in Wastewater Treatment

Overcoming Chemical Dosing Challenges in Wastewater Treatment

Around 359 billion cubic meters of wastewater is produced globally each year. As well as municipal wastewater, a broad range of industrial processes produce wastewater, such as chemical manufacturing, food processing and powerplants. If the effluent water is going to be discharged back into the environment, it must be treated to comply with regulatory requirements […]

Silanna Semiconductor Produces Ultrapure Water with Multi-Stage Solution

Silanna Semiconductor Produces Ultrapure Water with Multi-Stage Solution

When building a new facility to develop semiconductors in Brisbane, Australia, Silanna Semiconductor needed a reliable supply of ultrapure water (UPW). Using a multi-stage solution from Xylem, the semiconductor manufacturer can now convert 70% of readily available municipal water into Type E-1 ultrapure water. The solution minimizes maintenance and downtime, reduces chemical use, and increases […]
