AMS presented a reliable, rapid, and online method for predicting the potential formation of THMs from raw or treated water at the CA/NV AWWA Fall Conference 2018.”Online Instrument for Raw-Water THM Precursor Analysis” detailed how this novel technology is helping utilities make adjustments to their treatment processes in real-time to minimize the production of THMs.

Aigües de Barcelona uses the intelligent THM-100™ monitoring technology to help anticipate water quality issues, implement the necessary control measures, optimize performance, and reduce operational costs. This innovative case study was presented at the SWAN 2018 conference.

Intelligent water treatment systems incorporate real-time sensing to ensure that their performance is optimized to avoid under- or over-treatment and that any deterioration in system performance is signaled to permit timely remedial intervention.

Aqua Metrology Systems and University of Massachusetts Amherst (UMass Amherst), have partnered to develop a robust online raw-water trihalomethanes (THMs) -precursor analyzer. On 23 January 2018 they received a commitment from Massachusetts Clean Energy Center (MassCEC) through its AmplifyMass program to cost share in the development and assessment of this new online THM-Precursor analyzer.

Aqua Metrology’s CEO, Rick Bacon talks about the company’s online monitoring portfolio, providing water quality monitoring in real-time. At ACE17, the company focused on THM formation potential analysis for detecting future levels in a water system.

Aigües de Barcelona decided to monitor THM levels more frequently and they implemented the use of online analyzers to provide accurate and timely information regarding the THM formation in their network.

The Town of Tewksbury, Massachusetts piloted tested an aeration system for additional THM removal. Influent and effluent THM values were measured for the duration of the study using an online THM analyzer.

The Brunswick & Topsham Water District (BTWD) in Maine was receiving high THM results despite implementation of best practices. The use of the THM-100™ online THM analyzer has proven a valuable tool enabling BTWD to optimize operations, better understand treatment processes, resolve THM compliance concerns and validate laboratory performance and results.

The THM-100-FP™ is the only online analyzer to implement an accelerated THM Formation Potential process to develop real-time predictions of future THM levels in the distribution network. The analyzer provides high frequency real-time accurate data on TTHM and THM Formation Potential.
