Water Treatment

Water Treatment

Water treatment has become an integral part of most water system operations.  Regulatory changes and declining water quality are requiring more advanced treatment of not only surface supplies but groundwater sources as well.

Treatment

Treatment for corrosion control (pH adjustment) in some form is utilized at all sources while more advanced filtration technologies are being utilized for the removal of minerals (iron and manganese) and microbial constituents.  Filtration can be in the form of pressure filters with a variety of media (Greensand, Greensand PlusTM, LayneOXTM), conventional gravity filters or a variety of membrane technologies depending upon the raw water quality and finished water quality goals.
