Neo WaterFX300 Protects Sensitive River while Aiding Expansion at Coppermine WRF
Growth can often be a double-edged sword for a water reclamation facility (WRF). With an expansion looming to double the capacity of their membrane bioreactor (MBR) facility, the Coppermine WRF was exploring ways to improve their phosphorus removal from wastewater....
Toxicity Of Lanthanides In Wastewater
The toxicity of chemical additives to wastewater should be tested to determine the effect of the additives on the ecosystem. Ideally the additive will do what it is designed to do, only be discharged in a minimal amount, and not have any adverse effects on the...
Neo WaterFX, pH And Alkalinity
Neo WaterFX300 is a lanthanide based coagulant for use in water treatment. It is mainly composed of the ionic forms of Cerium (Ce) but can contain other lanthanides such as Lanthanum (La), Neodymium (Nd), and Praseodymium (Pr) among others. Similar to other metal salt...
Chemistry Of Rare Earth Elements In Wastewater
Introduction As clean water becomes scarce, the removal of contaminants from wastewater is becoming increasingly important. Nutrients such as phosphorus (P) in the form of phosphate (PO43-) serve as a food source for algae. Recently excessive amounts of P in natural...
