Contaminants of Emerging Concern: Occurrence in Shallow Groundwater and Removal by Nanofiltration
The purpose of this paper is to present an overview on the current state of regulations regarding CECs with a specific emphasis on PPCPs. A literature review is provided on PPCPs in municipal wastewater and drinking water as well as the removal effectiveness of various treatment techniques. Results from the Town of Jupiter?s? on-going research ef...
Proactive Corrosion Control Strategies To Avoid Flint Tragedy
The tragic events in Flint Michigan that occurred when lead levels rose well above the allowable concentrations in some homes resulted from corossion control efforts and protocols that did not adequately address changes in water quality when the raw water source and treatment processes changed. All drinking water utilities are best served by adopti...
Contaminants of Emerging Concern: Occurrence in Shallow Groundwater and Removal by Nanofiltration
Chemicals are being discovered in water that previously had not been detected; these are generally referred to as contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) because the risk to human health and the environment, frequency of occurrence and source may not be known. CECs, including pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) have been detected at ...

Case History - Town of Jupiter Blending NF Concentrate with Reuse Water
Reverse osmosis (RO) and nanofiltration (NF) membrane processes represent superior treatment technologies as they effectively reject unwanted contaminants producing high quality permeate, which is capable of meeting increasingly stringent drinking water regulations. For this reason, municipal drinking water purveyors are integrating membrane techno...
Seven Years and Counting - The Successful Implementation of a Split-Feed Nanofiltration Process at the Town of Jupiter, FL
The town of Jupiter operates a unique nanofiltration (NF) plant that includes an innovative system of split-feed pressure vessels configured with center-port concentrate outlets. When the plant was designed, the split-feed concept was considered a promising design innovation to reduce feed pressure. Now, with seven years of successful operation and...
