When selecting fresh water distribution equipment for construction sites, mines or public works needs, make sure you check the water trailer specification to ensure that the product can stand up to the harsh conditions on your site. You want to make sure you understand how you will be filling and discharging the water trailer on a regular basis so you have the right configuration for your needs.
Water Hauling Equipment for Construction Sites and Mines
Pumps in Upstate New York
It’s not often that we get to exhibit our wastewater pumps and systems so close to home. But during the week of April 14th Wastecorp will be exhibiting our new disc pumps, Mud Sucker Diaphragm pumps and Trash Flow Trash Pumps at the New York Rural Water Association annual technical conference at Turning Stone Casino in Verona, New York.
Pumping Out of Totes
You see them everywhere: tote tanks with steel or aluminum cages that temporarily store a variety of liquids including waste oil, septic waste, restaurant grease trap waste and industrial fluids. What many people don’t know is that having a proper diaphragm pump to transfer liquid both into or out of the tank can make all the difference in having safe and clean pumps out versus pump outs that leave the possibility that potentially hazardous liquids may contaminate your job site or drink water.
HOA Pump Options for Wastewater Pumping
We are pumping mud and sediment from the bottom of our irrigation holding tanks from which we pump irrigation water collected from ditches in our community. We reuse this water to irrigate common areas and private lots
What’s New in Diaphragm Pumps?
Diaphragm pumps have had quite the evolution over the last few years with new innovations in diaphragm materials, pump body engineering, drive systems and overall design. This evolution is mainly end user driven; more facilities face budget constraints and have thus demanded cost effective solutions for transferring wastewater and slurry (which diaphragm pumps have traditionally offered). Diaphragm pump manufacturers have responded by offering heavy duty pump models that transcend their usual application capabilities and now may be suitable for areas that submersible pumps and trash pumps once dominated. Here’s a partial answer to how this evolution has happened:
What Commercial Marine Operators Should Consider Under MARPOL ANNEX 5
Commercial marine operators around the world should understand that the Marpol Annex five prohibits the disposal of cooking oil, slurries and other substances which may be considered toxic to the marine environment. All of these substances are no longer permitted to be dumped at sea no matter how far offshore.
Marina Pump Outs and The New MARPOL Annex V
As many marinas know, the new MARPOL Annex 5 which prohibits disposal of garbage from ships, yachts and boats (which includes certain types of wastewater) have come into effect as of January 1, 2013. The new regulations set specific requirements for disposing of black water, cooking oil, grey water, residues, liquid detergents and animal waste.
