Infrastructure for Sustainable Development Water Reuse and Watershed Protection Opportunities Christopher Lind General Chemical Corporation
Water Reuse Opportunities • Non contact cooling • Irrigation • Agricultural • Recreation • Industrial Process Water • Environmental Protection • Groundwater Injection • Habitat Restoration
Sources of Reusable Water • Municipal Wastewater • Industrial Wastewater • Agricultural Wastewater • Stormwater
Coagulation & Flocculation Addition of chemicals like alum to combine with contaminants and settle them out of solution/suspension Remove larger particles Color Removal Turbidity Reduction Suspended Solids Control Natural Organic Matter Reduction Microbe & Pathogen Removal Phosphorus Removal Prevent Eutrophication Reuse TechnologyClarification
Sand Filtration Carbon Filtration Membrane Filtration Microfiltration Ultrafiltration Nanofiltration Reverse Osmosis Remove Very Small or Dissolved Contaminants Color Removal Turbidity Reduction Suspended Solids Control Natural & Synthetic Organic Matter Reduction Microbe & Pathogen Removal, Viruses Desalination Reuse TechnologyFiltration
Softening Chemical Precipitation Ion Exchange Corrosion Control Phosphates Silicates Molybdates Iron and Manganese Control Disinfection Chlorine Mixed Oxidants Chlorine Dioxide Ozone Ultraviolet Light Dechlorination Chloramines Reuse Technology
Infrastructure Needs • Brick and Mortar • Treatment Facilities • Collection and Distribution • Filters, Clarifiers, Disinfection Systems • Intellectual • O&M • Laboratory • Administrative
Watershed Protection Critical Component of Sustainability • Phosphorus Removal/Control to Prevent Eutrophication and Water Supply Degradation • Taste • Odor • Cyanotoxins
Nutrient/Phosphorus Inactivation • Stormwater • Lake Treatment • Wastewater Treatment • Agricultural Waste/Runoff Treatment • Soil Remediation
Nutrient/Phosphorus Inactivation Florida Leads the US in Nutrient Inactivation Systems • Alum Injection Systems • Whole Lake Treatment • Dairy Waste Treatment • Soil Remediation Cost Effective and Safe When Properly Managed and Operated
