Full Description

Within the last decade, wastewater reclamation using membrane technologies has become not only a realisticpossibility for many municipalities, but a necessity for those located within dry, arid regions. The combination ofmembrane filtration, reverse osmosis (RO), and advanced oxidation (ultraviolet [UV] light and hydrogen peroxide) to treat municipaleffluents beyond drinking water qualities has been demonstrated globally as the process of choice for municipalitiesthat are looking to reduce dependence on potable water for industrial or agricultural uses, implement indirect potablereuse applications, or even to create direct potable reuse supplies. Three such municipalities have used thisadvanced treatment process on their own local wastewater effluents for a variety of uses, but with the common goalof sustaining local potable water supplies. This paper compares operational data and performances for each of these three large scale water recyclingfacilities that include: the West Basin Municipal Water District in Carson, California; Orange County Water District in Fountain Valley, California; and, the Western Corridor Recycled Water Project (WCWRP) in Brisbane,Queensland, Australia. Particular attention is focused on the microfiltration (MF) and RO systems at each, with discussion of startup and ongoingissues experienced at each location. Includes figures.
