Old Plant
Prior to April, 2002

 

Water from the two wells is pumped
up to the Treatment Plant on
the South side of Greenwood Creek.

The water passes
through a Flow Meter on the way into
our Ozone Contact Tank.

Our 5,000 gallon Ozone Contact Tank.

Ozone is injected, mixed, and
given "rest time" in this tank.

Ozone is injected
into the Ozone Contact Tank.

The small white vertical tube,
in the lower center of the image,
brings Ozone up into the injector
and then left, through the valve, to
the Ozone Contact Tank.

The larger, curved white tube in the
lower left of this image brings
diluted Floc to the mechanical mixer
seen as the dark vertical section in the
center of the image. Water coming from
the Ozone Contact Tank flows through
this Mixer on the way to the
Floc Contact Tank.

The Floc Contact Tank.

Water coming from the Ozone
Contact Tank is
controlled by float valves.

Water from this tank goes out the valve
and pipe seen to the right bottom of
this tank to the filter in the
Treatment Room.

Our main filter.

Output from this filter goes through
the flow meter seen on the wall to
the upper right. Chlorine is injected
at this point.

Finished water is then stored in our
80,000 gallon steel tank.

As needed, the filter is Backwashed.

You can see output from a
Backwash being flushed into a
waste discharge pipe. In the center
of this image you can see the very
dark water consisting mainly of
Iron Oxide.

Ozone Generator.

The Floc mixing
tank and pump.

The pump is the yellow device on
the wall.

A small motor, the black item on
the tank, is run to mix the Floc
with the water in the tank.
It has a long shaft with a
propeller on the end.

Chlorine Tank and pump.

The chlorine injector can be seen
and also a pressure switch on the
out-put pipe.
