Advanced Purified WTP Water Quality Sampling and Monitoring for Direct Potable Reuse
This presentation is intended to inform a utility engineering and operations audience a general understanding of how the El Paso Utilities has approached the idea of implementing direct potable reuse to the City. The proposed Advanced Purification Water Treatment Plant (APWTP) is designed to provide the City with additional potable water to meet t...
Arsenic (As+3) Removal by Standard & High- Rejection RO Membranes and Oxidation to As+5 Prior to RO
Arsenic (As) is present in several of the wells that El Paso Water Utilities (EPWU) uses as part of the drinking water supply. EPWU has several wells that are equipped with reverse osmosis (RO) systems for desalting brackish groundwater. This process is referred to as Wellhead RO. At most of the wells, the RO membranes do an excellent job of reject...
Comparison of NF/RO Permeate Quality on UV-AOP Performance in a Direct Potable Reuse Application
This paper discusses the pilot test results at El Paso, TX and the degree to which each NF/RO permeate stream affects UV-AOP performance, as well as the influence of this performance on NF/RO membrane selection for the full-scale facility....
Expansion of the Kay Bailey Hutchison Desalination Plant
This paper will describe the history and start up of the Kay Bailey Hutchinson Desalination plant in El Paso Texas and the efforts for expansion of the facility....
DPR System Operation: Translating Pilot Experience and Lessons Learned to Full-Scale Design
With a diverse portfolio of water resources increasingly strained by a prolonged drought, El Paso Water (EPW) is developing a direct potable reuse (DPR) project to recycle 10 million gallons per day (MGD) of unchlorinated secondary effluent from its Roberto R. Bustamante Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP). Institutional knowledge about potable reuse...

Secondary Reverse Osmosis Treatment for Three El Paso Water Wells
In an arid and desert environment, water mangement is a challenge for all local public water systems, including El Paso Water. Any potable water treatment process that involves reverse osmosis is going to have a concentrate management component. This project presents an innovative way to increase the total system percent recovery by taking concen...
