Smith & Loveless Introduces A New Factory-Built Solution to Upgrade WWTPs to MBRs

Smith & Loveless Inc. highlights its membrane bioreactor solution, the TITAN MBR, a factory-built membrane bioreactor system that delivers high-efficiency wastewater treatment with streamlined operation and maintenance. Engineered to provide the simplest O&M of any MBR system, the TITAN MBR features compact, factoory-built and tested models that reduce field assembly, shorten installation time, and enable faster startup.

High-Capacity Packaged System Eliminates Confined Space Entry, Increases Operator Safety and Reduces Installation Time

Smith & Loveless Inc. highlights the EVERLAST Series 2000 Pump Station, an economical above-ground wastewater pumping solution that combines efficiency, long service life, and operator safety. The EV Series 2000 pump station comes as a complete, factory-built, and tested system designed for quick installation in both new and replacement projects.

There is a growing trend towards moving wastewater pumping equipment out of an underground environment to increase equipment lifecycles, reduce labor and replacement costs, and increase worker safety. The trend away from submersible pumps toward above-ground pump stations eliminates the frequent pulling and replacement due to clogs and failures and reduces hazards and costs of accessing confined spaces. Read on for an overview of key advantages, as well as examples of how communities have achieved cost savings by moving towards above-ground systems.

We naturally adjust our expectations within the constraints of what is practical. When we lived in an analog world, we didn’t expect or even easily imagine what would become possible in the digital era. But as technology evolves, we expand our expectations, raise our standards, and eventually become dependent on new levels of performance. That’s what’s happening with grit removal efficiency for wastewater treatment plants and sand removal in potable water plants.

Smith & Loveless highlights its innovative PISTA PRO-PAK. Designed to integrate seamlessly with the company’s PISTA Grit Chamber systems with top-mounted grit pump configurations, the PRO-PAK combines superior grit removal technology with a pre-engineered, protective housing enclosure for unparalleled efficiency and durability in extreme environmental conditions.
