Protecting Our Most Precious Resource
Groundwater is one of the world’s most precious resources. It is the primary source of drinking water for approximately ½ of the world’s population and immense amounts of groundwater are utilized for agriculture. Overuse has led to the depletion of our groundwater resources resulting in wells drying up, decreased water quality, saltwater intrusion, land subsidence, and reduced surface water levels. In addition to overuse, our groundwater resources are also threatened by industrial, agricultural, and municipal sources of contamination.
Groundwater Monitoring and Analysis
To ensure effective groundwater management and remediation, high-quality measurement data is essential. Our field-worthy instrumentation offers a cost-effective solution for all your sampling and monitoring needs. With access to experienced technical support, you can be confident in your instrument’s operation, whether you are conducting a groundwater protection study or investigating contamination.
Proven Experience in Groundwater Treatment
With over 40 years of experience, Xylem has been a leader in treating groundwater to remove both organic and inorganic impurities. We were one of the first companies to provide remediation of impacted waters with the development of our activated carbon treatment packages for removal of trichloroethylene (TCE), now recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a Best Available Technology. Our collaboration with water districts, communities, industrial clients, and the military has successfully addressed contaminants including:
- Organic compounds: TCE, TCP, PFCs, THMs, H2S
- Inorganic contaminants: PFAS, arsenic, chromium, lead, perchlorate, nitrate
We align our treatment goals with the newly proposed EPA PFAS National Primary Drinking Water Regulation.
Groundwater Remediation Solutions
We offer pump and treat systems based on our own vessels' designs, available for purchase or rent. Supported by one of the largest and most diverse mobile fleets in the country, we provide a range of on-site services that include emergency response, temporary solutions, and long-term or permanent installations, along with comprehensive systems integration.
Our mobile solutions can be configured to meet your specific application and treatment goals, utilizing the most effective media based on thorough water testing. Our vessels operate up to 150 psig and have capacities ranging from 5 gpm to 2,000 gpm, featuring:
- Optimized underdrain systems for lower pressure drops
- Accessible manways for easy inspection
- Septa tank configurations for efficient space use
- Durable construction with 100% internally and externally welded seams
- Abrasion and corrosion-resistant internal epoxy coating
Our service capabilities include:
- Regular, scheduled on-site service checks and monitoring using our local branch
- Chlorine rinse during changeouts which prevent bacterial growth
- Skidded assemblies that allow movement to another site if necessary and faster/easier deployment
- System design, air stripping modeling, liquid phase carbon modeling, along with carbon usage predictions and engineering
Evoqua employs a wide range of ion exchange and granular media, including proprietary technologies and generic options. We can identify the media that will deliver the lowest remediation cost per 1,000 gallons of treated water. We also offer financing options to simplify ownership and ensure peace of mind.
Whether your site is an airport, military base, municipal drinking water plant, construction site, or another source water treatment site, our line of carbons and resins can help you maintain a consistent and compliant water supply. With growing populations and increasing regulatory pressures, we are committed to providing effective solutions for all water sources, ensuring sustainability for future generations.
