Tank mixer

SolarBee has announced that its GridBee GS-12 potable tank mixer is now available with a 120v motor, as well as the original 48v motor. The 120v motor option eliminates the voltage converter box and reduces the total project cost to under $10,000 in most cases. Developed from the same long-distance circulation technology as the solar-powered models, they help solve water-quality problems by creating a near-laminar flow that can prevent and control stagnation and thermal stratification in potable-water storage tanks.

Stormwater holding tank

Festo has developed a stormwater holding tank solution that is energy self-sufficient. Solar and wind energy are used to generate and store electricity. The energy is used to power a control unit and operate pneumatic actuators. If the power supply from one of the energy sources fails, a built-in emergency function ensures that the gate valves can continue to be operated several more times until a repair or replacement has been carried out. Using a Festo GSM modem, the entire system can be controlled and monitored from a remote control center.

Fabric buildings

Legacy Building Solutions offers a line of fabric buildings that use structural steel beams instead of open web trusses. This new engineering concept provides a high level of flexibility for a variety of building applications, including wastewater treatment plants, salt and sand storage, public works, and general storage. The strength of the structural steel frame provides several engineering advantages, most notably the flexibility to customize buildings beyond the confines of standard sizes to the exact width, length and height required.
