Research

Hazleton Pumps, Hazleton, PA
Research Project: Designed and conducted oxygen transfer testing of centrifugal oxygenator. The testing was based on the then proposed ASCE Standard for "Measurement of Oxygen Transfer in Clean Water."

Hazleton Pumps, Hazleton, PA
Research Project: Conducted pure oxygen injection testing into Company's centrifugal oxygenator at Lakeland, FL and Hazleton, PA. Testing was to determine the oxygen transfer efficiency obtainable by the centrifugal oxygenator into both clean water and raw wastewater.

Hazleton Pumps, Hazleton, PA
Research Project: Conducted hydrogen peroxide injection testing into Company's centrifugal oxygenator at Ft. Lauderdale, FL and North Myrtle Beach, SC. Testing was to determine the transfer efficiency obtainable by the centrifugal oxygenator into raw wastewater as an odor control strategy.

Hazleton Pumps, Hazleton, PA
Research Project: Designed and conducted "in-situ" oxygen mass transfer testing for submerged turbine aerator. The testing utilized the ASCE Standard for "Measurement of Oxygen Transfer in Clean Water."

Hazleton Pumps, Hazleton, PA
Research Project: Developed a coal beneficiation system that takes low BTU value coal fines, <2,000 BTU and through gravity separation and screening produces a medium range BTU coal, >8,500 BTU, for sale. The process received a British Patent.

Hazleton Pumps, Hazleton, PA
Research Project: Conducted hydraulic capacity testing of hydraulic jett mixer used for Acid Mine Water treatment and supervised design changes to create greater aspirated air flows through the equipment.
