This powerpoint presentation begins by providing a brief overview of water demand projections at the City of Yuba City, existing source and treated water quality, and the Feather River water source. The reasons for selecting a submerged membrane system are presented, along with system design, and a process flow schematic of the selected system - USFilter/Memcor CMF-S (Siemens). Topics presented include: pretreatment-flocculation basin; pretreatment, rapid mix and screening; submerged membrane system; CIP/backwash system; membrane maintenance provisions; important factors for submerged membrane retrofit; membrane and filter side-by-side operating issues; solution - feed channel (short-term and long-term); commissioning summary; operations information after 18 months; unexpected results of adding membranes; and, benefits of operating membranes and conventional filters. Includes tables, figures.
