A Greener, Simpler, And More Cost-Effective Approach To Wastewater Reuse

Rivera Utilities’ Wolf Creek WWTP
Rivera Utilities’ Wolf Creek WWTP in Foley, Alabama, features three AquaNereda® reactors (foreground) and two AquaDisk® cloth media filters (background, red star) provided by Aqua-Aerobic Systems to treat municipal wastewater to enhanced nutrient removal standards while reducing effluent suspended solids to <5 mg/l to meet Class B reuse standards. The filters have a peak capacity of 7.0 MGD.

As water reuse becomes a critical part of water security, municipal water utilities will increasingly be under pressure to incorporate cost-effective reuse schemes in their daily operations. The major hurdle is that traditional reuse solutions — most notably membrane bioreactor technology (MBR) — are typically complex and expensive to operate. A newer solution that combines two simple yet extremely powerful technologies now offers utilities a low-cost and reliable alternative for indirect potable reuse.
