2 Contaminants in CA Reuse Context CA Regulates microbes and CECs rule for viruses, Giardia, and Cryptosporidium Specific log removal for CECs 0.5 log (69%) for most indicators 0.3 log (50%) for recalcitrant indicators BUT, removal is based on Full Advanced Treatment or FAT MF + RO + UV/AOP

3 Indirect Potable Reuse Full Available Treatment (FAT): Membrane Fouling (Contaminant Oxidation) MBR O 3

4 Contaminants in CA Reuse Context CA Regulates microbes and CECs rule for viruses, Giardia, and Cryptosporidium Specific log removal for CECs 0.5 log (69%) for most indicators 0.3 log (50%) for recalcitrant indicators BUT, removal is based on Full Advanced Treatment or FAT MF + RO + UV/AOP Is there a non FAT option? Is it effective for CECs and pathogens? How Much Does it Cost?

5 Indirect Potable Reuse FAT: Non-FAT: MF O 3 BAC Recharge Advantages of O 3 -BAC Disadvantages of O 3 -BAC Source: Sundaram et al. (2009) WateReuse Research Symposium

6 Ozonation of Secondary/Tertiary Final Disinfection Effluents O 3 Contaminant Oxidation / Increased UV Transmittance O 3 BAC MF UV Contaminant Oxidation and Disinfection MF O 3 BAC O 3 Membrane Fouling (Contaminant Oxidation) MF O 3 UV/H 2 O 2

7 Trace Organic Contaminant Removal by Ozone (Pisarenko, Stanford, et al)

8 Indirect Potable Reuse Pilot Project Effluent

10 Indirect Potable Reuse FAT: Non-FAT: MF O 3 BAC Recharge Advantages of O 3 -BAC Nearly complete TOrC removal Eliminates concentrated brine stream Reduced energy consumption Source: Sundaram et al. (2009) WateReuse Research Symposium Disadvantages of O 3 -BAC No reduction in salinity Potential for bacterial regrowth Higher TOC in effluent NDMA formation?

11 How Do We Estimate TOrC/CEC Removal Costs? Oxidation efficacy at 50 MGD O 3 BAC Treatment Plant O 3 Dose 1.5 mg/l 3 mg/l 6 mg/l 9 mg/l O 3 :TOC Ratio Average Percent Destruction of Target Compounds (CECs) Group 1 >90% >90% >90% >90% Group 2 >60% >90% >90% >90% Group 3 >30% >60% >90% >90% Group 4 >15% >30% >60% >80% Group 5 <5% >5% >15% >20%

12 CapEX and O&M Costs Developed for Multiple Technologies Curves developed as stand alone unit processes Ozone BAC Capital Costs ($M/MGD) Relative Ozone Capital Costs 10 to 535 MGD 2011 Costs (ENRCCI = 9116) y = 2.011x R² = Flow (MGD) Ozone System Size Capacity Ozone Contactor Capital Cost Equipment Capital Cost Total Project Cost Capital Unit Cost lb/day MGD mil $ mil $ mil $ mil$/mgd

13 BAC costing assumptions and results Based on drinking water GAC designs Costs estimated for 10 and 20 minute Empty Bed Contact Times (EBCTs) Cost curves separated into <10 MGD and 10 MGD to develop better curve fit

14 Other Cost Curves Developed UV/AOP (assumes 400 mj/cm 2 and 10 mg/l peroxide dose) MF RO Capital Costs ($M/MGD) y = 0.251x R² = Flow (MGD) O&M Costs ($M/MGD) y = 0.303x R² = Flow (MGD) Capital Costs ($M/MGD) y = 1.893x R² = Flow (MGD)

18 Closing Remarks What is the major driver for treatment choice selection in potable reuse applications? What water quality goals are required? Are there ways to minimize capital and O&M costs to achieve the water quality goals? Ozone + BAC may be a possible option for indirect potable reuse BAC provides additional TOrC removal Other factors should be considered Specific water chemistry Removal objectives End use of water Engineered or environmental buffers
