Sustainability and Ozonation: Making the Case for Generator Upgrades

摘要

The primary goal of most water utilities is to provide potable water that meets all regulatory requirements for the protection of public health and is aesthetically pleasing. Unfortunately, many water treatment facilities are not designed or operated with a goal of minimizing energy use. However, with energy costs on the rise and a movement toward sustainable operation; improving energy efficiency at water treatment facilities is critical. The purpose of this paper is to show how replacing ageing, high energy demanding equipment can save money and increase sustainability.
