MEMBRANE TECHNOLOGY CASE STUDIES

1. MEMCOR® Submerged Membrane System Starts Up At Orange County Water District

   The Orange County Water District (OCWD) of Fountain Valley, California needed to increase its potable water supplies to meet the future water demands of this fast-growing area

2. AnoxKaldnes Expertise- Rocky Mountain Region 10/18/2016

   The AnoxKaldnes™ MBBR (Moving Bed Biofilm Reactor) process is a biological wastewater treatment process that utilizes specialized plastic carriers to create a surface on which a biofilm can attach.

3. The Right UF For RO: Power Plant Chooses Koch Membranes For Ultrafiltration Pretreatment In Reverse Osmosis Desalination 12/1/2011

   To produce electricity, power plants require large volumes of high quality water for boiler make-up and for cooling. However, in most locations in China, where water resources are scarce, no surplus water is available and the government will not allow power plants to place additional demands on the already scarce water supply.

4. Seawater Reverse Osmosis System For Supplying Potable Water 6/17/2013

   The Federal Electricity and Water Authority in the United Arab Emirates is responsible for providing the electrical energy and water in the northern Emirates. The authority intends to install a seawater reverse osmosis plant in Ghallilah, Ras Al Khaimah. The plant will produce 18 million gallons of fresh water. The scope of work includes design, manufacture, supply, construction, erection, testing and commissioning of the complete plant.

5. Grey Eagle Casino Utilizes MBR System To Meet Advanced Wastewater Treatment Needs 2/11/2011

   The Grey Eagle Casino was a new commercial venture by the Tsuu T’ina Nation, in partnership with Sonco Gaming (Alberta) Ltd. This casino and future hotel/entertainment project is located on Tsuu T’ina lands in southwest Calgary.  The location had no water and sewer services, and had tight standards for discharging the wastewater that ultimately goes into Pine Creek. Any discharge at this location required advanced treatment, including a highly filtered effluent, with nitrogen removal to levels below 10 mg/L total nitrogen, and phosphorus removal to levels less than 0.5 mg/L.

6. Mighty Fine: Dow Filter Offers Cost-Saving Solids Removal 3/19/2013

   Solids removal from produced water is a major concern for oil and gas producers looking to reduce costs, protect downstream equipment and reduce safety and environmental issues. Old technologies such as settling systems, media filtration, cartridge filters and bag filters do not meet the challenge.

7. Pilot Study Makes The Grade: Green Sand Filtration And Reverse Osmosis Proves Fast, Reliable, And Cost-Efficient 4/12/2013

   Seeing its water treatment plant becoming obsolete, the City of Winkler took action to improve it.
