This powerpoint presentation provides an outline of the Aurora Water Prairie Waters Project and how it combines natural and high-tech purification to meet rigorous water quality standards. Presentation topics include: background and climate change drivers;water resource recovery strategy;selecting the right purification strategy; and,confirmation of purification approach. A summary of benefits of combining naturalpretreatment with high-techpurification includes the following:organic carbon reduction will improve efficiency oftreatment plant processes (softening, AOP, GAC)and decrease DBP formation;increasing UVT significantly reduces cost forUV-AOP;natural de-nitrification through RBF and ARR isnatural low-cost process without secondary supply oforganic carbon; and,reduces potential for eutrophication in water storagereservoirs, reducing potential of formation of T&Ocompounds and algal toxins. Includes figures.
