Potable tank mixing - Case study
Topics: Middle East, potable, mixing, stratification, water age Overview: This is a large potable water storage system in the Middle East, with eight above-ground concrete tanks. Each tank is 30MG capacity and is 140m in diameter, 7m high. Conditions / Objectives: Due to temperatures averaging between 38° C (100° F) and 43° C (110° F) from mid-May through mid-September, water ...

Rainwater Harvesting
With rainwater harvesting, precipitation discharge from roofs of public and private buildings can be collected in cisterns and withdrawn by pumps. The collected water replaces drinking water in areas where drinking water quality is not necessary to be obtained, such as in the household for flush, running the washing machine, to irrigate the garden but also in industrial areas. The main purpose of ...

The water environment as a source of potentially pathogenic mycobacteria
Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are ubiquitous organisms of a wide variety of environmental reservoirs, including natural and municipal water, soil, aerosols, protozoans, animals and humans. Several of these species are potential pathogens which affect human health. The aim of this study was to determine the occurrence of NTM in the water environment. Samples were taken from 13 water-related ...

Potable tank THM reduction - Case study
Topics: potable, THM reduction, TTHM, chlorine, stratification/water age Overview: This tank is a concrete cylindrical potable water storage tank that serves the area's distribution system. The tank is 130 ft. diameter x 22 ft. high, with a capacity of 2.0 million gallons (MG). The maximum inflow rate is 6.3 million gallons per day (MGD). The tank receives water from a reservoir, which is ...

Potable tank reservoirs 6, 8, & 15 - Case study
Topics: potable, THM removal, TTHM, stratification/water age, short-circuiting, chlorine Overview: The water treatment system includes three potable water storage reservoirs (Reservoirs 6, 8 and 15) where chlorine boosting occurs before water is distributed to the community. Reservoir 6 is a 3.5 MG concrete storage tank with a height of 30 feet, a diameter of 143 feet, and a maximum daily flow ...

Fast Response, Early Boost: Eliminate Ammonia Oxidizing Bacteria
Potable water storage tanks in chloraminated systems endure water quality problems, particularly during warm weather. A simple approach can solve these problems, enhance a facility's mixing system, and save money. Historically, attempts to solve water quality problems in chloraminated systems that use water storage tanks have been minimally successful. Many storage tank facility managers have ...

Water layering and full-depth mixing
How water layering affects tank water quality— and why full-depth mixing is one solution. Potable water storage tanks are a necessary part of the water distribution system, providing pressure and enough supply for daily and emergency use. Vet, the AWWA estimates that 65 percent of them, over 200,000 tanks, have water quality problems. These problems—common in both chlorine and ...

Evidence Shows Need to Address Pathogenic Bacteria in U.S. Drinking Water Systems
Legionnaires’ disease is on the rise. Unfortunately, efforts to prevent Legionnaires’ disease to date have focused on building water systems rather than the municipal water supply. Building water systems are too far downstream to correct the problem, and, as a result, these efforts have been ineffective in curbing the incidence of legionellosis. It is unrealistic to place on building ...
