Anglian Water has applied Ovarro’s data-driven early-warning technology across all rising main sewers, meaning bursts and blockages are detected before serious pollution occurs. Anglian Water pledges in its 2025-2030 draft business plan to eliminate serious pollution and reduce total number of pollution incidents by 40%, with a strategy that includes bringing in machine learning. In […]
As food and beverage companies strive for better water management in their production processes, selecting the right pump has become increasingly important. If a company can reduce its water usage then less water needs to be treated, which produces cost savings while also meeting environmental and sustainability standards.

A major southern grow operation needed a valve to open and close automatically on a series of remote fertigation pipelines. The lines were in a location where compressed air and electricity were both unavailable and impractical. It was essential to have the valve close whenever the water supply dropped below operational pressure, to prevent the […]
Ammonia is currently at focus as clean alternative to heavy fuel oil that has predominantly been used. The technology employed in order to use liquid ammonia as a fuel must be hermetically tight and guarantee maximum operational safety as the gas is toxic and harmful to the environment. LEWA’s high-pressure diaphragm pumps meet these requirements. […]
