Wastewater Treatment
1. Water coming into the plant is screened to remove large particles
2. The water is sent through the system which uses naturally occurring bacteria to remove organics, nitrogen, and solids
- Good bacteria are mixed with the water
- Oxygen is introduced and the bacteria eat the organic matter in the water
- After a time, settling occurs and clear water is removed
3. Clear water is sent through a series of filters. It is disinfected with UV light
4. The treated water is distributed to reuse customers and recharge facilities. Solids are dried and sent to the landfill
