Gravity-in/gravity-out a unique approach for CSO treatment that minimizes O&M costs

摘要

Across the U.S., municipalities are experiencing unprecedented regulatory requirements, budgetary limitations, and shortage of available space and resources. To manage these challenges and preserve water quality, municipalities must seek innovative solutions. A recent project demonstrates that with thorough understanding of the collection system, hydrologic/ hydraulic modeling, a comprehensive study of alternatives, and a little ingenuity, municipalities nationwide can meet (or exceed) regulatory requirements while saving money along the way.
