Photo credit: TasWater Case study Optimized dosing for H2S control at wastewater treatment plant TasWater’s Ti Tree Bend Sewage Treatment Plant faced persistent odor incidents and high chemical costs due to inefficient dosing for H₂S control. By adopting automated dosing control with a SulfiLoggerTM H2S sensor for real-time, liquid-phase monitoring, the plant dynamically matched dosing rates to actual H₂S levels. This approach optimized chemical use and cut expected annual costs by up to 87% or $250,000. Download this case as a PDF Background Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) dosing control in [...]

H2S sensor optimizes odor emissions control at Vesthimmerland Biogas

Case study H2S sensor optimizes odor emissions control at Vesthimmerland Biogas Vesthimmerland Biogas wanted an alternative to grab sampling for measuring the plant's odor emissions. To achieve this, two SulfiLoggerTM H2S sensors were installed in the CO2 discharge stream. This eliminated the plant's need for manual grab samples and costly tests by external bodies, and the sensors' real-time data furthermore provided valuable insights into biofilter and scrubber performance.

Liquid-phase H2S sensor provides new insights at treatment plants

2024-04-19T09:27:15+02:00

Case study Liquid-phase H2S sensor provides new insights at treatment plants Despite causing severe odor, corrosion, and worker safety issues, H2S is still a neglected process parameter at wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). This case study examines how two of Veolia's French subsidiaries; Klearios and Société des Eaux de Marseille (SEM), gained new insights into the H2S challenges at two WWTPs. These insights were obtained using a novel sensor for permanent and real-time monitoring of H2S in untreated sewage. Download this case as a PDF Background H2S is a major challenge [...]

New sensor provides better H2S insights in sewer networks
