  1. Water Treatment Katie Filimon Sam McDaniel Brian Titgemeyer Nick Dolciato Noah Lucas

  2. Water Treatment What is water treatment? Water Treatment Process: • Chemical treatment • Physical treatment • Coagulation process • Sedimentation process • Filtration process • Disinfection process • Storage

  3. UD Project • Wetland restoration/ Greywater treatment project • What is Greywater? • How does UD benefit from Greywater?

  4. The Ohio Revised Code and Water Treatment • Chapter 3745-7: Operator Certification • Examples: • 3745-7-03: Public water system classification and staffing requirements. • 3745-7-10: Operator Certification Advisory Council • Chapter 3745-9: Water Well Standards • Examples: • 3745-9-06: Well Construction • Chapter 3745-34: Underground Injection Control • Examples: • 3745-81-21: Coliform Monitoring requirements • 3745-81-23: Inorganic chemical monitoring requirements • Chapter 3745-81: Primary Drinking Water Rules • Examples: • 3745-81-14: Maximum level of microbiological contaminants • 3745-81-17: Water treatment techniques

  5. Detection Limits for Inorganic Contaminants

  6. Coliform Bacteria Monitoring Requirements

  7. Environmental Policy Implementation • Water Quality Policies: • WQ-11-001: Fluoride levels competence • WQ-14-001: Total organic carbon monitoring and removal requirements. • Operating Systems Policy: • OPR-02-001: Chlorine monitoring and tracking for groundwater systems.

  8. Policy Making and Implementation • The Environmental Protection Agency at the federal and state level are greatly involved in making policies. • Types of policy used in examples: • Regulations • Found in the Ohio Revised Code • EPA Policy • Interpretation of federal law for use by EPA employees • For use as guidelines

  9. Policy Implementation • Ohio Revised Code Regulations • These regulations are implemented by state law. • These laws are then enforced by both the EPA and general state law enforcement. • EPA Policy • Water Quality Policies • Do not have the power of law. • For use as guidelines. • Operational Systems Policy • Implemented by federal or state law. • Implemented via interoffice exchange.

  10. How and Why? • EPA Water Quality Policies • Guidelines for standardized testing for contaminates in the water • Ensures equal testing parameters statewide • Do not have the force of law • Guidelines for how to test for and track contaminates. • Precursor to a law or regulation How and Why?

  11. How and Why?  • EPA Operating Systems Policy • Policies put together so that federal or state law can be implemented. • These serve as instructions for EPA employees to ensure that they are keeping records of data in the appropriate manner. • Ensure that the state remains under compliance with federal or state law.

  12. How and Why? • Ohio Revised Code Regulations • Federal and state congresses pass a law and then ask EPA for a policy so that the law can be implemented. • EPA is a regulatory agency that creates a policy or regulation that has authority based upon a law that has been passed by congress.

  13. World Information Transfer • Discussed combating water contamination in rural African villages and at their 19th conference in 2010 • nonprofit organization non-governmental organization that promotes environmental health and literacy • foster education and provide aid to schools, hospitals and orphanages in environmentally devastated areas

  14. Water Innovations Alliance • Promote accelerated development adoption of water technologies and methodologies • Held a conference @ UD for the first time in 2010 • focused on developing new funding, reducing regulatory barriers, increasing collaboration and raising awareness for cutting-edge water technologies and the problems they solve

  15. National Water Research Institute • focuses on ensuring safe and reliable water sources • funds and supports research studies, water-related educational programs, and holds workshops on new water technologies • Uses support of other leading organizations in water industries and private foundations

  16. Dayton, Ohio

  17. Dayton Water Treatment • Water is supplied by wells in the Miami and Mad River Well Fields • Ottawa Water Treatment Plant and • Miami Water Treatment Plant • Each plant has a rated capacity of 96 million gallons per day • Lime (calcium oxide), fluoride and chlorine are used for water treatment • final step in the treatment process: Rapid sand filtration

  18. Cincinnati, Ohio • Greater Cincinnati Water Works (GCWW)

  19. Greater Cincinnati Water Works (GCWW) • Has been nationally recognized for it’s excellent drinking water • Most GCWW consumers receive water from the Miller plant • Miller plant uses Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) treatment • Allows for substantially less chlorine in the treatment process

  20. Granular Activated Carbon Treatment  • best way to remove organic materials from water • After settling and filtration, water at the Miller Plant is filtered through beds of GAC • Millions of pores in GAC capture (or "adsorb") the organic substances • Most spills in the Ohio River are organics

  21. Water Quality Issues in Ohio • Environmental Protection Agency’s investigation of Clyde, Ohio • Cancer among children • Research results • Inconclusive as to what caused cancer • High levels of iron, sulfate and dissolved substances were naturally occurring in the aquifer

  22. Is Current Water Treatment Policy Effective?
