Water treatment & wastewater reuse - Case study.

The historic city of St. Augustine, Fla., has relied on a surficial aquifer as the primary source of water for its 12,000 residents. Concerns about the city's future water supply and the impact of aquifer drawdown on wetlands in this coastal community led the city to develop a proactive plan for long-term water resource management.

The need of new approaches for wastewater management and environmental demands worldwide is challenging product manufacturers to develop advanced technology.

Current best practices in wastewater reclamation facilities include the use of ultrafiltration or microfiltration membranes.

To achieve successful treatment of the water, one should know that no water is the same, every water is unique and should be treated uniquely.

Modern wastewater treatment systems require air in order to maintain biological activity. Often air is also needed to maintain a thoroughly mixed system. Any air introduced beyond what is needed for these two processes is considered excessive and may be eliminated to reduce power consumption.
