Less Sludge Production And Better Dewatering
When choosing a coagulant for removing phosphorus from wastewater, it may be tempting to select the “traditional” iron or aluminum coagulants. After all, these have been used in water treatment for decades and are “known”. However, when it comes to phosphorus removal,...
Eliminate Algae in Clarifiers
As predictable as spring, green algae in the clarifier. Or is it? It is a sure sign of spring, the algae growing again in your wastewater clarifier due to warming temperatures and released phosphorus. That green mess can clog weirs and cause violations of your TSS...
Seasonal Compliance Immediately
Seasonal Compliance Immediately Neo WaterFX takes the guesswork out of seasonal phosphorus removal from wastewater. Many wastewater treatment plants have very stringent seasonal phosphorus limits of less than 1 mg/L. Due to the volume of wastewater in the treatment...
Cold Weather Operations
Baby, it’s cold outside! How are your chemical feeds handling it? Winter phosphorus removal from wastewater is simplified with Neo WaterFX. Another polar vortex blasted into the US in January, driving temperatures below freezing even deep into Florida. Many parts of...
Case Study: Rapid Phosphorus Removal with Neo WaterFX
Summary Modern water treatment facilities that chemically or biologically target phosphorus removal have a lot of challenges when it comes to meeting their phosphorus discharge limits. Many of those challenges are related to timing because influent phosphorus loading...
