Water Treatment Plant Expands Treatment Capacity Through Retrofitting Legacy TrojanUVSwift Chamber

A Water Treatment Plant (WTP), located in Canada, has treated surface water from a neighboring Bay with a TrojanUVSwift system since 2003. The site provides potable drinking water to a community of 10,000 people, which includes popular tourist destinations. After operating for more than 15 years, the system needed improvements to accommodate new residential developments and population increases in the region, which included nearly tripling the original permit’s flow capacity. This challenge was compounded by the fact that seasonal mixing in the Bay was affecting water clarity and would drop UV transmittance (UVT) to a point where the plant needed to reduce the volume of treated flow to maintain their regulated UV dose targets. Consequently, the plant often needed to operate their UV chambers at 100% UV output, pushing the capacity of the system to the limit. The plant needed a simple solution to all of these challenges.
