Advanced Valve Technologies
Advanced Valve Technologies (AVT) is known for producing the most lightweight and effective insertion valve in the industry. Insertion valves can be installed on water lines without the need to shut off the water and without affecting local residents and businesses.
AVT EZ Valve
The AVT EZ Valve is available in 1.5” to 24” and is ideal for use with a range of applications from isolating floors in high-rise buildings to creating additional control points on current municipal water networks.
The valve uses an integral isolation gate, which, when operated after a slot has been milled across the pipe, allows the EM (end milling) machine to be removed and the resilient wedge installed. This process means the valve can be installed on a live line with no need to shut off the water.

De Nora
Ozone AOP
The “whole effluent toxicity” (WET) test measures the effects of facility wastewater on specific test organisms—specifically, their ability to survive, grow and reproduce. Any industrial facility that discharges water directly into “waters of the United States” is subject to oversight of the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System according to the Clean Water Act, which requires that facilities regularly perform these tests.
Capital Controls ozone generation systems for advanced oxidation process (AOP) are an appealing option for reducing WET. The powerful oxidant has a fast reaction time, requires no added chemicals and reduces disinfection by-products, helping customers meet their legal treatment requirements with an environmental approach, all while minimizing their operating costs.
System capacities are available up to 6,000 lb/day (113 kg/hr), each using proprietary XTL dielectric to decrease maintenance costs and increase uptime. Piloting options can help overcome the challenges of variability persistent in industrial applications. Skid-mounted and containerized systems are available for temporary and mobile systems during this phase, which can later be combined with other De Nora technologies, such as UV, to solve multiple issues onsite and help customers make the most of their investment.

Duperon Corporation
FlexRake IQ
A simple solution to smarter raking, the Duperon FlexRake IQ helps customers achieve responsive resiliency through its patent-pending sequence technology. The FlexRake IQ enhances solids handling by sensing conditions and speeding up—or slowing down—to accommodate changing debris and flow in real time without user intervention.
To maximize uptime, large debris is managed without shutdown, and the re-imagined FlexLink system ensures that scrapers return to cleaning the screen field faster. The scrapers have an enhanced tooth profile and unique collection geometry that handle plant washdown and wastewater debris, while removing solids cleaned at the higher speed.
The re-imagined design of the FlexRake IQ focuses on smart enhancements to the raking device that extend the life of mechanical components. Users can manage heavy solids loading events with a four-times increased debris-removal capacity, improved grit and rock handling, and greater solids capture.

EJ
STORMSURGE ACCESS ASSEMBLY
During a major rain or tidal event, the water pressure can be powerful enough to force up and dislodge a manhole cover. This creates a hazard for both motorists and pedestrians. The STORMSURGE Access Assembly solves this problem by allowing water to flow. During a storm surge or backflow event, the cover can lift up to 16 degrees, enabling water to flow out and relieve the pressure. The locking arm and hinge restrain the cover and allow it to properly seat itself after the event. Made in the USA, it is traffic rated and exceeds the 40,000-lb proof-loading requirements of AASHTO-M-306.

Environment One CorporationPressure Sewer Systems
Pressure sewage collection systems were pioneered by Environment One. E/One Sewer systems have proven to be an effective method of sewering otherwise difficult land areas, such as flat, wet, rocky and hilly terrain at a fraction of the cost of gravity sewers. Pressure sewer mains need only to be buried just below the frost line, eliminating the need for the deep trenches often associated with gravity sewers. The small, flexible pipes are also resistant to I&I.
At the heart of an E/One Sewer is the grinder pump, developed by Environment One. These units accept household sanitary waste, grind it into a fine slurry, and pressurize it to permit transport through small-diameter pipes. E/One Sewer Systems serve more than 2 million end users daily.

PWTech
Volute DUO
The PWTech Volute DUO adapts the original dewatering drum concept for more-efficient dewatering of difficult sludges. When dewatered, sludges that contain high concentrations of fibrous, inorganic or adhesive material can form a compacted cake that can be difficult to extrude from a traditional screw press. This can lead to clogging and may require reducing cake solids to avoid plugging.
Utilizing twin counter-rotating screws inside a single drum to break up and move feed solids for dewatering, the DUO enables maximum cake solids without compromising performance. Using a separate drive mechanism so the moving rings do not contact the screws as they move, the DUO design also further reduces wear on the press, resulting in many years of maintenance-free operations. The DUO can be utilized in virtually all sludge dewatering applications; however, it’s especially effective in applications that would otherwise create plugging or binding in more-traditional screw press designs. Such applications include pulp and paper, raw manure, dredging, land remediation and more.
