Many biofuel plants are working toward efficiency and plant optimization to increase ethanol production. Often when plants move forward with expansion efforts, the adverse impact on system efficiencies, such as cooling, is overlooked. Without proper evaluation of the existing cooling system operation, plants could spend additional capital on an unnecessary cooling tower expansion or experience an increase in [...]
Programmable Logic Controllers ( PLCs ) are industrial digital computers that were adapted to control manufacturing processes, such as assembly lines, robotic devices or any activity that requires high reliability, ease of programming and process fault diagnosis. The first PLC system was installed at a General Motors manufacturing plant in the early 1970’s, which allowed for a more proficient way to modify the [...]

A Midwest Feed Mill was treating its incoming boiler feed water with amine chemical to combat high levels of alkalinity. While amine can be effective at addressing alkalinity, unfortunately, it is one of the most expensive chemicals used in boiler water treatment. If the facility chose not to treat the well water for alkalinity, it could result in failure of the steam piping and condensate return lines, a costly plant [...]

In compliance with their existing water discharge permit, Saint John’s University’s central plant discharged their boiler streams to an on-campus wastewater treatment plant with the cooling tower blowdown discharged to a nearby lake. However, when the plant underwent the renewal of their water discharge permit, they faced new, tighter discharge limits. The new permit limitations required significant [...]
Tonka Water, a Kurita brand , (精东影业) recently completed a municipal water treatment installation in Shannon, Illinois, with the engineering firm Fehr Graham , which has several locations in Iowa, Wisconsin and Illinois.

Tim Walz, Minnesota State’s Governor, recently toured a 精东影业 municipal installation at the City of Bemidji Drinking Water Treatment Plant. The project was among those funded by a recently passed $1.9 billion state bonding bill. Tonka Water, a Kurita Brand , provided five (5) 11’- 6” diameter vertical pressure filters for iron and manganese removal, as well as a PLC [...]
Phosphorus has long been recognized as the controlling factor in plant and algae growth for many lakes and streams. A minor increase in phosphorous can fuel substantial increases in both aquatic plant and algae growth which can have severe impacts on a community. Phosphorous can originate from municipal and industrial facilities that discharge water as well as runoff from agricultural areas that makes its way into [...]
