ES&E Magazine sat down with Toronto Water and CIMA+ to discuss how asset management is benefiting from, and supporting, Canada's water sector.

There is a pathway forward for the Northwest Territories to invest in environmental remediation, and reap the rewards of such an investment.

Heat exchangers can reduce the energy consumption (and therefore greenhouse gas emissions) of thermal processes in a wide range of industries.

Properly designing, operating, and analyzing data from a water treatment media pilot trial will yield valuable performance data.

Canadian colleges and universities made headlines this spring with an array of innovative and meaningful research projects.

With conventional methods being prohibitively expensive for the small community, a pilot study successfully examined biological ion exchange for water.

Connected technologies can keep water industry workers safe, while also improving productivity, highlighting trends and lowering the likelihood of future incidents.

During replacement of the biofilter media and tank clean-out, it was decided to improve the tanks' containment integrity with a geomembrane lining system.

In October 2021, residents complained of a fuel-like smell coming from tap water. Then, fuel-like contamination was discovered at the water treatment plant.

A series of water audits found the Town's non-revenue water was above 60%. Consequently, it began searching for a solution that could reduce this figure.

Pressure sewers offer an alternative sanitary sewer option because they provide an economic solution to challenging environmental conditions, where gravity sewers are impractical and where septic systems pose risks to the environment.

Sediment, nutrient and pesticide run-off from catchments is contributing to the pressures on marine ecosystems along the Queensland, Australia coast, including the Great Barrier Reef and Moreton Bay. Quantifying the amounts of these constituents in runoff (in both concentration and tonnage) is critical to the effective management of these risks.

Standing in traffic to get a wastewater RNA sample through a sewer maintenance hole may not be ideal, but it may be more effective. While logistically, there is a simplicity to obtaining and monitoring samples directly at the wastewater treatment plant, easier does not always mean better.

The scenic Town of Lumsden has achieved an innovative feat by becoming the most solar-driven municipality in Saskatchewan, thanks to its award-winning venture of powering a brand-new wastewater treatment plant with the endless energy of the sun.

An important concept to understand about addressing I/I is that it is not just an engineering issue. To implement a long-term I/I program, the entire municipality needs to be involved. The work must be supported by the CAO and engineering, development, building, by-law, and planning departments need to participate.

The year 2023 is indeed a milestone year. It marks Environmental Science & Engineering Magazine’s 35th birthday and 130 years of environmental journalism in Canada. It also marks the 40th anniversary of a research project I did to commemorate Water & Pollution Control Magazine’s (W&PC) 90th birthday in 1983.
