Implementation of an Integrated Membrane System to Expand Reuse – City of Phoenix Cave Creek Water Reclamation Plant
The Cave Creek Water Reclamation Plant (CCWRP) is one of three wastewater treatment facilities either owned or co-owned by the City of Phoenix (City). The 8 mgd facility was placed […]
Pilot Testing for Validation of Log Removal Credit for Reverse Osmosis and Nanofiltration Membranes
Application of potable water reuse in the U.S. has become more widespread to meet the water demand in areas with increasing population and dwindling water sources. Different treatment trains have […]
Verifying MBR Membrane Integrity with Pressure Decay Testing; Implications and Interpretation of Test Pressure
The question of pathogen Log-Removal Value (LRV) credits for the MBR process still looms over next-generation wastewater reuse plants. Based on the Membrane Filtration Guidance Manual, the Pressure Decay Test […]
Coupled Oxidant-Membrane Processes for Decreased Fouling and Enhanced Flux in Water Reclamation Application
Water reuse has become an important research topic for water resource and water treatment professionals in recent decades. Water reuse is quickly being accepted as one strategy that can be […]
Repair and Rehabilitation of Twenty-Year-Old NF Plant Trial and Tribulation
The Deep Aquifer Treatment System (DATS) is an 8-mgd nanofiltration (NF) plant owned and operated by the Irvine Ranch Water District (IRWD) located in Santa Ana, California, that was put […]
Advancements in Ceramic Membranes – They are Not All the Same
Ceramic membranes are commonly used for both water and diesel filtration. However, the first ceramic membrane was not originally designed for these applications. The first ceramic membrane was developed during […]
Maximizing Flexibility with MBR to Reduce the Long-Term Cost to Operate
The largest costs in water and wastewater projects are generally the long-term cost to operate, or cost of service (COS), over the initial capital investment for the planning, design, construction, […]
Retrofit of Hollow Fiber MBR with Submerged Ceramic Membranes for Fats, Oils and Hydrocarbon Management in Industrial Reuse Plant
Brine Minimization Maximizes Potential for an Inland Potable Reuse Project
Rancho California Water District (Rancho Water/District) in Temecula, California has been investigating options for a groundwater injection indirect potable reuse (IPR) project to provide a locally controlled, drought-resistant supply that […]
