Slip-type expansion joint
The Dresser Piping Specialties Style 63™ Expansion Joint is designed for many applications, including for use with steel pipelines on bridge crossings. A key design issue with this application is the exposure to temperature fluctuations and the need to accommodate expansion and contraction. The Style 63 joint is considered a slip-type joint and has distinct advantages over accordion or bellow type joints and eliminates the need for an expensive pipe loop expansion system.

Membrane Bioreactor
The Norit Airlift™ Membrane BioReactor (MBR) is a compact purification system that combines the biological degradation process with a membrane separation process. This combination offers several significant advantages over a conventional activated sludge system, including higher biomass concentration and less sludge carryover. The higher biomass concentration results in a more compact system. The decrease in sludge carryover reduces the need to post-treat the effluent.
