Project challenges includedexpanding the plant within current site constraints,maximizing the use of existing facilities, maintaining plant capacity during construction, andconsidering Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (OEPA) approvability. Upgrade and expansion analysis included a three-phased approach ofcondition assessment,feasibility study andpilot testing. Pilot testing includedthree alternatives: Dissolved Air Flotation Clarification, Solids Contact Softening,Recarbonation, Filtration, Sidestream Reverse Osmosis; Enhanced Microsand Clarification, Filtration, Reverse Osmosis; and, Immersed Ultrafiltration and Reverse Osmosis.
