Strange-tasting tap water in Mexico City turned out to have a tragic origin after the body of an aspiring actress was found decomposing in the water system in December.

"Residents of an apartment building in Mexico City had been complaining for months about the strange taste of their drinking water. When council workers finally responded to the complaints and checked the city’s water supply, they were shocked to discover a decaying body floating inside the cistern," theInquisitr reported.

Wireless Lift Station Monitoring

Wireless Lift Station Monitoring Application Note

Application
Lift stations are remote pumping facilities that move wastewater from lower to higher elevation. Monitoring lift stations is important to collection system operators to:

• Obtain real-time alarms on:
  • Pump failures
  • Wet well overflow
  • Station tamper or vandalism
  • AC power failure
  • Generator power failure
  • Pump temperature and/or vibration exceedance
• Ensure pumps are functioning properly and sized correctly
• Optimize energy efficiency
• Track station flows

Solution
A comprehensive lift station monitoring system provides information to Operations, Maintenance, Collections and Modeling groups within a utility. This includes:

• Real-time alarming
• Time-stamp event data
• Trend data
• Station flow history
• Pump cycle data
• Pumping rate history
• Pump energy efficiency history
• Site diagnostics
•

New Dangers Found In Produced Water

Produced water appears to contain two harmful chemicals that researchers previously did not know about, according to a new study.

"Harmful levels of ammonium and iodide have now been found in wastewater from conventional oil and gas production plus the more controversial practice of hydraulic fracturing, known as fracking. The chemicals, pulled up from the earth, arrive at the surface at concentrations high enough to harm aquatic life and form cancer-causing compounds when mixed with the chlorine in tap water," according to Science News.

The study, published this month in Environmental Science & Technology, noted the dangers these chemicals may pose.  CHECK OUT - WATERONLINE at http://www.wateronline.com/doc/new-dangers-found-in-produced-water-0001
