The Water Online Show: The Critical Role Of Vessel Design In Media Treatment

In this episode of The Water Online Show, Travis Kennedy sits down with Ben Goecke from Calgon Carbon to talk about optimizing the design choices for your treatment system. The design of media vessels is a crucial, yet often overlooked, factor that significantly impacts the cost, downtime, and safety of granular activated carbon (GAC) and ion exchange treatment operations. When media reaches the end of its life, efficient removal and replacement are paramount, and the vessel's architecture—from manway placement to underdrain engineering—dictates the ease of this process.
