Complex challenges including water scarcity, changing demographics, extreme weather patterns, and aging or overly stressed infrastructure are colliding to threaten critical water, energy, transport, enterprise and health networks. The water industry is in the eye of the storm.

In the municipality of Vlaardingen, rainwater and wastewater are processed by more than seventy pumping stations, six of which are large, dry-installed main pumping stations and a large number of subsidiary and mini-pumping stations. Supervision is the responsibility of Xylem, which means that the Vlaardingen maintenance department receives a weekly overview of all relevant events.

Xylem Rental Solutions helped a North Carolina community restore water service quickly during the COVID-19 outbreak with a temporary replacement, using a Flygt submersible pump, after a permanent pump failed.

Xylem carries out the maintenance of wastewater pumping stations on a contract basis for a large number of municipalities in the Netherlands. With the maintenance contracts in place, Xylem is in regular contact with the associated technical people to share new solutions and insights.

There are over 150,000 public drinking water systems in the United States and more than 80 percent of the population receives their potable drinking water from these systems.

Surveys were conducted at three mining pits in January 2018 using the Xylem UK rQPOD radio controlled vessel and the SonTek HydroSurveyor-M9 system over two days. Speed of sound in water cor- rections, an integral part of any acoustic survey, were carried out using the SonTek CastAway-CTD. HYPACK software managed the prepara- tion, survey, processing and outputs for the survey.

This pioneering pump turns feedstock like cheap sugar into clean-burning ethanol fuel that emits far less greenhouse gases into the atmosphere than oil-based gasoline. It’s designed to be installed in household driveways and the parking lots of small businesses.
