High Tech and History - Operational Experience with the City of New Brunswick's 15 MGD MF Plant
The new Brunswick, NJ WTP consisted of 2 treatment trains. Train 1 utilized gravity filters and Train 2 included pressure filters. The pressure filters were no longer meeting filter turbidity effluent requirements. Membranes were selected as an appropriate technology because they could be installed without disrupting Train 1 operations. 3- units we...
Built To Last: A Review of 10 Years of Performance of New Jersey's First Microfiltration Plant
This paper provides an historical overview of the design of the Southeast Morris Municipal Utility Authority?s water treatment plant, focusing on the operating history and modifications that have been made to the plant....
Piloting MF into NF for Hardness Removal
This paper describes the pilot program for treating a surface water for hardness reduction and the findings. Direct membrane filtration was selected for the filtration unit process. Nanofiltration with bypass blending was selected for the hardness removal unit process. The proposed new plant will have a maximum permeate production capacity of 420...
Creating a Soft Spot for Your Water: Turning an Aging Time Softening Water System Into a State-of-the-Art Membrane MF/NF Plant
Approaching 40 years in service, this 300,000 gpd, aging water treatment plant needed major upgrades. The existing treatment process consisted of an up-flow lime softening system for hardness, dual media filtration, packed tower aeration, GAC absorption, and disinfection. Source water for the plant provided by three wells is classified as groundwat...

Evolution of New Jersey's Largest Membrane Facility Operations and Upgrades to City of New Brunswick's Water Treatment Facility
The City of New Brunswick owns and operates the largest hollow fiber membrane plant in New Jersey. The plant treats surface water from two sources of supply: the Delaware and Raritan Canal and Lawrence Brook. The original water treatment plant was constructed in the 1916 and consisted of clarification followed by dual media gravity filtration. In t...
