Town Of Castle Rock, CO Reduces Water Age By 35% Through Desktop Operational Optimization Study

Castle Rock Water teamed with Optimatics to consider whether modifying the operation of the Castle Rock water distribution network could improve water age across the system. The purpose of the Castle Rock optimization study was to assess system operations and determine whether changes to the way the system is operated could reduce water age across the system, particularly in some problematic storage tanks. Water age is a concern for many water utilities since it is a major factor in the deterioration of water quality in distribution systems.
