  1. Brackish Stream Treatment Plan Possum Engineering: Josh Ogle Meg Przybyla Kyle Smith Alex Stodtmeister 12 April 2013

  2. Problem • Brackish Stream running backyard • Desire to “go green” and make use of stream • Possum Engineering chosen to explore the option and choose the most viable option Possum Engineering

  3. Field Work • GPS Mapping of Dr. Chandler’s Property • Water Quality Analysis • Water Capacity Analysis Possum Engineering

  4. Field Work - GPS Mapping Possum Engineering

  5. Results - GPS Mapping Possum Engineering

  6. Field Work - Water Quality Analysis Possum Engineering

  7. Field Work - Water Quality Analysis • On-site analysis with water quality sondes • Dissolved oxygen, specific conductivity, temperature, pH, chlorophyll • Samples taken for further testing at BYU • Total solids, total suspended & volatile solids • Chemical oxygen demand • Metal concentrations Possum Engineering

  8. Results – On-site Analysis Possum Engineering

  9. Results – Solids and COD Possum Engineering

  10. Results - ICP Possum Engineering

  11. Results – Water Chemistry Possum Engineering

  12. Slingshot Option • 264.2 gallons of water/day Cost - $100,000 Possum Engineering

  13. Heat Exchange Option • 15,000 linear feet of pipe lay coiled 10 feet underground in horizontal slinky loop • Paxman Heating installed Dr. Astle’s system Cost - $20,000 ROI - $1,200/year (Cutting Power Bill by 42-50%) Possum Engineering

  14. Water Purification Option COST ≈ $500 COST ≈ $14,250 COST ≈ $250 Total Cost ≈ $15,500 ROI ≈ $420/year (If 50% of monthly water use provided by RO System) Possum Engineering

  15. Legal Constraints • After receiving all Water Users' Claims, the State Engineer then prepares a proposed determination of water rights of all water users in the drainage or sub-drainage that is served on water users and filed in court Possum Engineering

  16. Final Recommendation • Ground Heat Exchange System Benefits: • Cut Power Bill in half Investment Cost: • $20,000 Return on Investment: • $1,200 per year • Pay for itself in 16 years Possum Engineering

  17. Acknowledgements • Dr. Mike Chandler • Dr. Gus Williams • Dr. Jim Nelson • Dr. Wood Miller • Dr. Craig Astle • Craig Hammer • Paxman Heating • Jay Sandberg, P.E. • Phil Stewart • Zola Adjei Possum Engineering
