2013 Symposium on High Resolution, Depth-Discrete Groundwater Monitoring – Benefits & Importance


Solinst (Canada), manufacturer of high quality groundwater and surface water monitoring instrumentation, is proud to announce the 2013 Symposium on High Resolution, Depth-Discrete Groundwater Monitoring – Benefits & Importance.


Following the success of their three previous events, this is the fourth Symposium to be held at their facility, located in Georgetown, Ontario Canada. The 2013 Symposium will be held on November 7th, with a new one day format. It will feature the following guest speaker lineup:


Dr. Gary Wealthall, GeoSyntec Consultants – "Symposium Introduction: History of the Evolution of High Resolution Tools and Methods for Groundwater Monitoring”


Dr. Patryk Quinn, University of Guelph – “Hydraulic Testing in Fractured Sedimentary Rock for Contaminant Hydrogeology Studies”


Dr. Richard Amos, University of Waterloo – “Diavik Waste-Rock Research Project: High Resolution Gas Pressure and Concentration Monitoring” Dr. Kent Novakowski, Queens University – “Developing Conceptual Models for Flow and Transport in Bedrock Aquifers Using Depth-Discrete Hydraulic and Tracer Transport Measurements” Dr. Jessica Meyer, University of Guelph – “A High Resolution Vertical Gradient Profile Approach for Delineation of Hydrogeologic Units at a Contaminated Fractured Sedimentary Rock Field Site”


A round table discussion, moderated by Gary Wealthall, will be held at the close of the Symposium. It will encourage open discussion with all attendees and the panel of speakers participating in the Symposium. It will allow attendees to discuss high resolution tools, methodologies, applications and benefits.


Previous Symposiums sold out early – so sign-up now. Registration forms can be downloaded from the Solinst website, or call to register at 905-873-2255.

The ability to reduce the time taken for an average maintenance operation from 1 day to just 1 hour was one of the key reasons why an EZstrip maintain-in-place, progressing cavity transfer pump from NOV Mono (UK) was selected by a large wastewater treatment plant in Germany.


The Mono pump has been installed at the Karanlage Plön site in Schleswig-Holstien, and transfers sewage sludge to an anaerobic digester where it is used to create biogas. Operating at a duty speed of 294 rpm, the pump transfers the sludge at a rate of 15m3 metres into the digester.


per hour, and lifts it a height of 18


“Whenever the previous pump had to be maintained it took a full 8- hour shift to strip, maintain and rebuild it,” says the plant’s Abwassermeister, Andreas Laatsch. “The ability to do this to the Mono pump in as little as one hour has cut our maintenance times dramatically and also helped reduce the associated costs.”


Mono’s innovative EZstrip technology allows the pump to be disassembled quickly and easily, without the need to remove other


equipment or associated pipework. By simply removing a few screws the suction chamber is easily dismantled, giving access to take out any rag build-up. The EZstrip transfer pump can be installed into new plants, or retro-fitted into existing NOV Mono Compact C installations. No electrical disconnection is required and suction and discharge pipes remain untouched


“There are increasing numbers of instances such as this where customers are coming to realise the tremendous time and cost savings which our EZstrip pumps offer,” adds Mono’s Area Sales Manager in Germany, Werner Potrafke. “The EZstrip technology has been specifically designed to provide a quick and easy way to disassemble, de-rag and maintain a PC pump in-situ, and it represents the biggest leap forward in progressing cavity pump design for 30 years.”


Available in cast iron or stainless steel and with a choice of rotor and stator materials, the EZstrip transfer pumps can be maintained with nothing more than spanners and an allen key. A pre- assembled drive train is available, with 2 year warranty, to allow an even faster re-assembly time.
