WOL_key-west_cs_385x250 Key West Resort Utilities Maximizes Reuse And Nutrient Recovery

Water scarcity poses unique challenges to KW Resort Utilities Corp. (KWRU), the utility firm that provides wastewater management, wastewater recovery, and wastewater treatment in the region. KWRU began operation in the late 1960s and has worked hard over the decades to keep up with wastewater needs as population and tourism have boomed, spurred by land reclamation and development.

WASTEWATER APPLICATION NOTES

WASTEWATER PRODUCTS

The TrojanUVSigna® incorporates innovations, including TrojanUV Solo Lamp® Technology, to reduce the total cost of ownership and drastically simplify operation and maintenance. It is an ideal solution for wastewater treatment plants in need of revolutionary UV technology.

The newterra WWT-125 is a scalable sewage treatment plant based on 3-container process trains that can each address the requirements of 500 people (125 m3; 33,000 US gal). The advanced, modular system is designed for larger camps with populations ranging from 1,000 to tens of thousands of people. 

The TrojanUV3000®B is a simple, yet robust system designed for small wastewater treatment plants that are looking to treat 1 – 5 MGD (158 – 789 m3/hr). The system is straightforward to use and requires minimal operator involvement thanks to its modular design and proven components. It can be easily retrofitted into existing chlorine contact tanks and effluent channels, and comes pre-tested, pre-assembled and pre-wired to minimize installation costs.

The SCREENMASTER® RT internally fed rotary screen employs a rotating drum to provide effective fine screening of a variety of materials with a simple and reliable design. This unit employs a cylindrical screen constructed with perforated metal, wedge wire or filter cloth along with a weir system. As the material is fed into the unit’s inlet, it is distributed along the internal screen surfaces.

For confidence in all applications, including saltwater, choose the titanium Level TROLL® 500 instrument.

The STRAINPRESS® is a horizontal pipe-shaped coarse material separator which consists of inlet and driving zone, screening and press zone and finally a discharge section with a conical pressure regulating device. The coarse material is separated continuously under pressure and periodical cleaning of the screening zone by backwashing is not required.
