Water Supply Reservoirs provide an opportunity to improve the quality of water that enters a water treatment plant. Management of the reservoir by Layer Aeration, Hypolimnetic Aeration, Oxygenation, Depth-Selective Flow Routing, Focused Treatments, and other approaches can control raw water quality, improve potable water treatment efficiency, and avoid treatment problems such as:
We work closely with Water Utility Professionals to determine what causes treatment problems and how to alleviate those problems by reservoir management in concert with the supply infrastructure. Consulting, Diagnostic and Feasibility Studies, Method Research and Development, Monitoring, Client-Based Monitoring Programs.
Sometimes the solution is very simple and inexpensive, such as using a deeper supply intake to reduce manganese by deep strata flushing.
Sometimes the solution is the installation of an apparatus that works in concert with natural forces to maintain good raw water quality, with a "return on investment" of several years. Some of our largest reservoir implementation projects have had a ROI of less than 2.5 years. More importantly, consumer complaints decrease substantially.
The best answer will be in the application of sound limnological principles. Nature is our foremost teacher!
