Hydro International

This is a fantastic achievement, and it's great to be a part of a company that is focused on responsible environmental stewardship. Many of our own projects are also helping to protect vulnerable habitats - for example, our Downstream Defender® systems are capturing stormwater pollution in Beverley Brook, which runs through Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs) and Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) in London: https://lnkd.in/eAAZebxD

In a new blog, Ben Puddy, Hydro International Product Manager answers customer questions about our new adjustable inlet feature - a recent upgrade to our popular Hydro-Brake® Optimum vortex flow control, which now comes as standard. Ben comments on the industry and environmental demand for future-proofing installations, showcasing how exactly the adjustable inlet works and its ability to provide engineers and designers with the tools they need to stay ahead of the competition via our Online Design Tool.

Why is capturing fine grit critical for effective and efficient wastewater treatment? Elisebeth Haluch explains all on the latest Pumps & Systems podcast - listen here: https://lnkd.in/g9xTTigC #wastewater #wastewatertreatment #wastewaterequipment

As part of our Specifying Engineer Recognition Program, we would like to congratulate our latest winners and highlight their contributions and expertise in projects from the last 12 months. We're committed to improving sustainability in the water industry, and we recognize that a huge part of that improvement comes from projects like the ones that these engineers have successfully delivered. To put it into context, the hydrodynamic separators that we installed in 2023 treated around 1.2M gallons of stormwater every minute and captured around 459,000 lbs of TSS (total suspended solids) - almost 203 tons of sediment. The engineers that we're recognizing today have contributed to this incredible impact and we look forward to working with them and other sustainability-focused engineers to take this even further. https://lnkd.in/e8Jg-ZgE

Combined Sewer Overflows (CSOs) act as a “safety valve” for our sewer networks, but weather conditions can present a pollution risk. Storm King® systems—like this one in Round Lake Beach, IL—use hydrodynamic separation to prevent trash and sediment from reaching the environment during heavy rainfall and surge events.

Today we’re joining organisations around the globe marking #WorldEnvironmentDay 2024, encouraging worldwide awareness and action to promote land restoration. We're proud to be part of CRH where protecting the natural world is a key foundation of the Sustainability Framework. We’re proud to highlight our Group’s commitment to responsible land management, protecting natural habitats and restoring and reclaiming land. https://lnkd.in/dj6Gxh5B

We’re proud to be part of CRH, which has agreed a five-year partnership with UNICEF to protect vulnerable children from life-threatening diseases by improving their access to vaccines. A great example of how we’re standing together to reinvent the way our world is built.   

Going to the AZ Water Association's conference in Phoenix next week? Come see our presentation during the technical sessions and visit with Hydro International product experts in booth 912 to learn more about the benefits your treatment plant can realize with Advanced Grit Management® systems. #wastewater #grit #Conference

The Hydro GritCleanse™ is an optimized fluidized bed grit washing and dewatering system for municipal wastewater treatment plants. The system outputs very clean and dry grit product which significantly reduces the amount of material to dispose of resulting in much lower landfill costs and fewer odor issues. Designed with the operator in mind, the Hydro GritCleanse™ fixes design flaws found in conventional fluidized bed technologies to ensure ease of maintenance, less downtime, and a longer product life. Watch this short animation to see how the Hydro GritCleanse™ can capture 95% of all grit 75 micron and larger with less than 5% volatile solids in the final product. 

Sustainability is important to our business and at Hydro International we're proud to be part of CRH, which is innovating to help solve global water, circularity and decarbonisation challenges.
