By Piyu Dhaker, Applications Engineer, Analog Devices, North America. Introduction :-Several industries such as beverage production, pharmaceutical plants, waste water treatment plants, and so on, rely on water quality monitoring systems to measure and control important water quality indicators. Parameters defining physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of water can be used as water quality indicators. Examples include: 8 Physical: temperature and turbidity Chemical: pH, oxidation reduction potential (ORP), conductivity, and dissolved oxygen Biological: algae and bacteria The article focuses on chemical measurement parameters that have been historically indispensable and unreliable,…

IMPLEMENTATION OF A PROFICIENCY TESTING FOR WATER SAMPLING AND IN-SITU ANALYSES
By Eric ZIEGLER, Boris CONSTANTIN, Abdelkader BOUBETRA, Anne TIRARD Abstract:- Since 2018, BIPEA has organized several proficiency tests for water sampling and insitu analyses.These proficiency tests require a very specificorganization, with especially all the participants being gathered at the same time at a defined place altogether. The proficiency test consists of routine in-situ analysis, such as pH, conductivity or dissolved oxygen, usually in three different locations and awater sampling exercise. According to the location, different type of water can be analysed: river, lake, water from a recreation complex, waste water…

By Mohd Zeeshan, Senior Water Professional As it states, water is essential for life but also the most vulnerable resource, which is often wrongly considered as renewable. Water is not only used in the domestic perspective but also has a vital role in the agriculture and industrial sectors. As the world progresses, water security is becoming the most substantial, social, political, economic and environmental challenge for the humankind. As per a recent study by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), by the end of 2030, 47 percent of…

By Geza Csornyei, Attila Farkas, Tamas Kovari, Bernadett Lemaire, Jozsef Neer, Budapest Waterworks Abstract:- In the past few decades, global population growth has been dominated by an increasing urban population. Maintaining urban hygiene and healthy water resources a major challenge to many countries around the world. Wastewater treatment approaches vary from the conventional centralized systems to the onsite decentralized systems. While in dispersed households decentralized water treatment solutions are promoted in order to economize the investment costs of the sewer system, for more densely populated areas centralized treatment represents a…
