Chlorination
in Food Processing Plants
Chlorination of domestic, public and private water supplies
has been used since the early 1900s to safeguard against
water-borne diseases. In recent years, chlorination of industrial
water has become a common practice in food processing plants
as a means of improving plant sanitation.

Agreement
Makes Patented Ultrafiltration Membrane Technology More Widely
Available
According to two recent reports, the global filtration market
can expect healthy sales growth for the foreseeable future. In one study,
the global filtration market for membranes and related equipment is predicted
to continue growing at a minimum of 15% per year for both the municipal and
industrial markets through 2020.
A recent agreement between two water and wastewater industry
leaders is indicative of this growth potential. Severn Trent Services has
signed an agreement with inge Americas, Inc. to market its patented Multibore® ultrafiltration
technology throughout the U.S. and abroad.
To read more about this agreement and the burgeoning filtration
market, read on.

Arsenic Treatment: Process Optimization Using Granular Ferric Oxide Adsorption
With increasing regulation, the global water treatment market has been tasked with finding commercially available technologies suitable for treating and removing arsenic contamination in drinking water to levels below 10 µg/l. Years of lab and field tests have shown that Bayoxide® E33 iron oxide media, manufactured exclusively for Severn Trent by LANXESS, is a viable solution with a high capacity to remove arsenic contamination in potable water sources.
Still, continuous improvement is essential. So additional research is focusing on improving the Bayoxide® E33 media in order to manage difficult water qualities and increase process efficiencies. LANXESS has recently tested a new pelletized version of their media that holds promise for improved arsenic removal and process performance.
