The Reverse Osmosis Water Treatment Plant included an existing 1.2 MGD RO System with the space to upgrades to a 3.6 MGD facility. The 2.4 MGD upgrade was conducted in two separate projects. The first upgrade consisted of adding one 1.2 MGD skid in 2006-2007 and then followed by a third and finall 1.2 MDG skid in 2010-2011.
Addition of the 2.4 MGD capacity also required addition of; two micron cartridge filters, two 1,400 gpm Horizontal Well Pumps, 1,600 gpm Horizontal Split Case High Service Pump, 2,500 gpm Vertical Turbine Clearwell Transfer Pump, two 1,250 gpm Vertical Turbine RO High Pressure Pumps all associated piping and valve modifications, electrical and I&C upgrades and minor architectural and structural upgrades.
A new Odor Control System was installed to remove the odors which consisted of; one degasifier, two two-stage scrubbers, two recirculation pumps, PVC piping and FRP ductwork.
Lastly, demolition of the existing chlorine gas system and replacement with a liquid Sodium Hypochlorite system. The new chemical system included a prefabricated concrete building for the five chemical transfer pumps and a cast-in-place containment area for the two 8,750 gallon FRP bulk Sodium Hypochlorite storage tanks.
