RESULTS OF GROUNDWATER TREATMENT FACILITY (GWTF) LOCATION EVALUATION
Based on the following factors: Capital Cost O&M Cost Operational efficiency Treatment options
Consultants recommend that the GWTF be located at the San Angelo Water Treatment Plant
NF/RO TREATMENT UPDATE Conducted preliminary desktop membrane models
based on revised data Nanofiltration Low energy Reverse Osmosis (RO) Brackish RO
Low-energy RO may provide good rejection and recovery while minimizing energy needs
Next steps: Membrane (RO) pilot plant investigation
