Still only 30% of design flow (fewer customers and $$$)
-aging membranes (beyond 10 yrs)
Reducing permeability
-need to maintain performance
Cut costs where possible
-electricity, labor, laboratory, sludge
No “turn down” capability built in
-develop new operations procedures
No air optimization capabilities
-find ways to use air more efficiently

Ultraviolet Disinfection
ZW-500b modules
• Each cassette contains 8 modules
• 5,200 sq.ft. filter area per cassette
• 0.04 micron nominal pore size
• Every 12 months / 3 days per cassette
• Inspection
• Hose out sludge and debris
• 300 mg/l Cl2 for 12 hours
• 2,000 mg/l Citric Acid for 24 hours with pH adjustment to 2.2
Membrane Recovery Cleaning
horses, turnips, if’s, and’s
• Stay ahead of permeability issues
• Need better membrane condition tracking
• Use more aggressive cleaning strategies
• Push membrane life (another 10 years?)
