1.- INTRODUCTION
• The water supply for Las Vegas Valley is comprised of groundwater
Setting wells and surface water.
• Groundwater wells were the initial source of supply until after
Hoover Dam was dedicated in 1935.
• Surface water from Lake Mead, the water impounded behind the
Hoover Dam, then became a source of water supply in 1942.
• The Alfred Merritt Smith Water Treatment Facility (AMSWTF), a
new intake, and a pumping system were designed and placed into
service in 1971, providing a secondary source of raw-water supply
from Lake Mead.
• In 1991 the Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) was created
to establish regional coordination of water resources and Nevada’s
water entitlement from the Colorado River. SNWA includes all
major water and wastewater agencies in southern Nevada, which
are Las Vegas Valley Water District, City of Henderson, City of
North Las Vegas, Boulder City, Las Vegas, Clark County Water
Reclamation District, and Big Bend Water District.

DURANGO HILLS WATER RESOURCE CENTER
• The City of Las Vegas and Las Vegas Valley Water District partnered to
develop the Durango Hills Water Resource Center.
• The $37 million Durango Hills Water Resource Center is one of the
biggest public works projects ever undertaken by the City of Las Vegas.
• The City of Las Vegas owns and operates the Durango Hills Water which
can ultimately produce up to 10 million gallons of recycled water a day.
That’s enough water to fill 1,000 residential swimming pools a day.
• The Durango Hills Water collects and treats wastewater flow from
municipal sewer interceptors and produces recycled water, treated to
specific water quality standards so it can be safely used for irrigation
purposes.

Soutern Nevada Water Authority Capacity
Table 1: Southern Nevada Water Authority River Mountain Water
Treatment Facility 1998 -2005
The South wastewater treatment plant (SWWTP)
was constructed in southern Henderson County
near the Webster County line in 1995 and early
1996. The SWWTP has a 4.0 MGD (Million gallons
per day).
The North WWTP is located on Drury Lane near the Ohio
River southwest of the Henderson downtown area. The plant
was originally constructed as a primary treatment facility in
1954. It was upgraded to secondary treatment in 1975 and
renovated and expanded in 1991, 1996 and 2001. The 1991
expansion increased the design capacity to 7.5 mgd (Million
gallons per day).

3. Analyze available water reserves and possible shortages in
the near future
Analysis of Water Reserves in Nevada
Water recycling is a key component of Southern Nevada’s strategic plan
for the region’s water resources.
The climate of Nevada is
characterized as semi-
arid to arid with
precipitation and
temperature varying
widely between the
northern and southern
regions of the State, and
between valley floors and
mountain tops.
AVERAGE ANNUAL PRECIPITATION AT SELECTED LOCATIONS
Total precipitation averages approximately
9 inches per year (53,000,000 acre-feet)
making Nevada the most arid State in the
Nation. Of the total annual average
precipitation amount, approximately 10
percent accounts for stream runoff and
ground-water recharge.

5.-Investigate and describe the process used for
ozone production.
INDTECH Final Research Paper
INDTECH Final Research Paper
Ozone Production:
• Corona discharge method.
• Reaction is endoderm and requires application of a large amount of energy.
• Produced by means of an electric discharge applied to dry air or oxygen.
• Applying a high voltage (6,000-20,000 V) to two electrodes and voltage produces an
electric arc. In the arc of the O2 becomes O3.
• Ozone is generated onsite because it is unstable and decomposes to elemental oxygen in
a short amount of time after generation.

Operation of Water Ozonation
• The ozonation system consists of 6 components to achieve the irrigation water
ozonation and anwashing.
• Bubble difussers
• Venturi Injection
• Static Mixer
• After generation, ozone is fed into a down-flow contact chamber containing the
wastewater to be disinfected.
• The main purpose of the contactor is to transfer ozone from the gas bubble into the bulk
liquid while providing sufficient contact time for disinfection.
• The effectiveness of disinfection depends on the susceptibility of the target organisms,
the contact time, and the concentration of the ozone.
International regulations ozone
•The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standard
average ozone concentration of 0.08 ppm in air for 8
hrs.
•The OSHA, Occupational Safety and Health
Administration) states that workers should not be
exposed to a concentration greater than 1.0 ppm
ozone for more than 8 hrs of work.
Ozone Treatments Features
• Improved water organoleptic characteristics.
• Color, smell and taste undesirable, attenuated or eliminated.
• Total destruction and fast (3000 times faster than chlorine) of bacteria, viruses and
spores, with short contact times.
• Destruction of iron and magnesium salts in the form of hydrates, resulting in easily
removable products by decantation or filtration.
• Clarifies water, leaving it particularly clean.
• Its disinfectant covers a wide range of both temperatures and pH's.
Ozone Safety Advantages
• Ozone is not stored in bulk on-site
• Catastrophic large-scale release is not likely because generator shutdown eliminates
supply of ozone
• Ozone is not explosive or flammable
• No reported fatalities due to ozone exposure
Ozone Advantages and Disadvantages
ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGE
Ozone is more effective than chlorine in destroying
viruses and bacteria.
Low dosage may not effectively inactivate some viruses,
spores, and cysts.
The ozonation process utilizes a short contact time
(approximately 10 to 30 minutes).
Ozonation is a more complex technology than is
chlorine or UV disinfection, requiring complicated
equipment and efficient contacting systems.
• There are no harmful residuals that need to be
removed after ozonation because ozone
decomposes rapidly.
Ozone is very reactive and corrosive, thus requiring
corrosion-resistant material such as stainless steel.
• After ozonation, there is no regrowth of
microorganisms, except for those protected by the
particulates in the wastewater stream.
Ozonation is not economical for wastewater with high
levels of suspended solids (SS), biochemical oxygen
demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand, or total
organic carbon.
Ozone is generated onsite, and thus, there are
fewer safety problems associated with shipping
and handling.
Ozone is extremely irritating and possibly toxic, so off-
gases from the contactor must be destroyed to prevent
worker exposure.
• Ozonation elevates the dissolved oxygen
(DO) concentration of the effluent. The increase in
DO can eliminate the need for reaeration and also
raise the level of DO in the receiving stream.
The cost of treatment can be relatively high in capital
and in power intensiveness.
6.- QUALITY OF WATER Water delivered by the Las Vegas Valley Water District meets or
surpasses all State of Nevada and federal drinking-water standards.
• Treat water withdrawn from Lake Mead with small quantities of a disinfectant to destroy invasive quagga mussels, which do not
impact water quality but can plug pumping equipment and pipelines.
• Water then is sent to either the Alfred Merritt Smith Water Treatment Facility or the River Mountains Water Treatment Facility,
where we treat it with ozone to kill potentially harmful microscopic organisms that may be present.
• Use a multistage filtration system.
• Add chlorine to minimize pipeline corrosion.
• Uses advanced computer technologies to move water more quickly through the distribution system, which protects water quality
and improves energy efficiency.
TREATMENT
Also test many regulated and unregulated contaminants more frequently than required. To ensure water safety:
• Collected about 37,000 water samples in 2011 and conducted nearly 370,000 analyses of those samples.
• Continually monitor water quality in “real time” 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
• Conduct tests for 91 regulated contaminants as well as about 30 unregulated contaminants.
• Conduct extensive quality control sampling of our distribution system. While not required, this sampling is important for
identifying potential areas for improvement.
• They manage 363 sampling stations where They draw water samples for required bacteriological and chemical testing. Some
stations are aboveground; others are installed in customers’ meter boxes to help ensure water quality is maintained all the way to
the tap.
TASTE • The tap water’s taste comes from naturally occurring minerals and from chlorine used in the treatment process.
TESTING
The U.S. EPA requires water agencies to monitor for 91 regulated contaminants:
• 76 contaminants have “primary” standards: Are established to protect the public
against consuming drinking-water contaminants at levels that present human-health
risks. In 2011, They detected 21 contaminants with primary standards.
• 15 contaminants have “secondary” standards: Established to help public water systems
manage their drinking water for aesthetic considerations, such as taste, color and odor.
These contaminants, while regulated, are not considered to present a risk to human
health.
• Turbidity: regulated by a Treatment Technique (tt) requirement: 95% of all samples
taken after filtration each month must be less than 0.3 NTU. Maximum turbidity cannot
exceed 1.0 NTU.
• Before Las Vegas Valley Water District delivers your water, it undergoes a multistage
treatment process. Drinking water, as well as bottled water, may reasonably be
expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants—any substances that
are not H2O.
Contaminants that may be present in source (untreated) water include:
• Microbial contaminants: such as viruses and bacteria, which
may come from urban runoff, septic systems, wildlife, agriculture and
domestic wastewater discharges.
Inorganic contaminants: such as salts and metals, which can be
naturally occurring or result from urban runoff, septic systems
and industrial or domestic wastewater discharges.
• Pesticides and herbicides: which may come from a variety of sources
such as agriculture, urban runoff and residential uses.
• Organic chemical contaminants: including synthetic or volatile organic
chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and can come
from gas stations, urban runoff and septic systems.
• Radioactive contaminants: which can be naturally occurring
or the result of industrial activities.
To ensure tap-water safety, EPA regulations limit the
amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems.

Water Quality Test Results
What about other potential water contaminants that have
no regulatory limits?
• They monitor and report results for
about 30 contaminants unregulated
by the federal Safe Drinking Water
Act.
• Cryptosporidium is a naturally
occurring organism in many U.S.
source.
• Cause gastrointestinal distress.
• The EPA requires water systems that
treat surface water to assure removal
of Cryptosporidium.
• The Southern Nevada Water
Authority monitors for
Cryptosporidium; none was detected
in any 2011 source-water samples.
• Ozonation, used at both our regional
water treatment facilities, is highly
effective at destroying.

The Treatment Process - City of Las Vegas
8.- ANNUAL COST OF CHEMICALS AND ENERGY USED
Chemicals used in the processes per Million
Gallons
• In the water treatment plants in Vegas, treated
approximately 222,350,000 gallons per month.
• The chemical cost per million gallons is around $
122.14.
• In Las Vegas, the approximately cost of chemicals
would arrive at $ 88.38 per million gallons.
222.350 MILL GALLONS X $ 88.38 GALONS PER MILL X 12 MONTHS = $ 235 816 IN ONE YEAR
Chemical Cost/unit Use
Alum(aluminumsulfate) 0.1 coagulation
Fluoride 0.1 disinfection
Chlorine 0.1 disinfection
Polymer 3 Coagulation
Caustic soda 0.32 Coagulation
Ferric chloride 0.18 Disinfection
Activated carbon 0.58 Coagulation
Ammonia 0.24 Disinfection
Potassium permanganate 1.58 Coagulation
Copper sulfate 0.06 Disinfection
Soda Ash 0.1 pHadjustment
Sodium Bisulfite 0.14 Disinfection
• This doen’t show the cost price
relationship, but a relationship of
economic cost will require an estimate
of costs of all inputs.
• Therefore an empirical approach is
used to explain the unit cost by
chemical treatment.
TOTAL ANNUAL COST OF CHEMICALS AND ENERGY USED = $ 1 157 060.31 PER YEAR
Estimate the annual cost of chemicals and energy used in both
processes
United States has about 80,000 water treatment systems and wastewater treatment facilities.
The City of Las Vegas, use an average of 1,200 kWh per million gallons (MG) of the treated
wastewater. A plant of 7.4 MGD (millions of gallons per day) wastewater with dissolved air
flotation followed by anaerobic digestion can consume 3,200 kWh / day of electricity.

10.- LAS VEGAS AND LA ATARJEA
In the area of water and sanitation in Peru:
• Increased access to potable water from 30% to 62% occurred between the years 1980 to 2004.
• Increasing access to sanitation from 9% to 30% between 1985 and 2004 in rural areas.
• Disinfection of drinking water and sewage treatment. However, many challenges remain in the sector, such as:
- Insufficient coverage of services.
- Poor quality of service delivery that jeopardizes the health of the population.
- Poor sustainability of constructed systems.
- Rates that do not cover the costs of investment, operation and maintenance services.
- Institutional and financial weakness.
- Human resources in excess, low-skilled and high turnover.
While in Las Vegas, The Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) was formed in 1991 to manage Southern
Nevada's water needs on a regional basis.
• SNWA provides wholesale water treatment and delivery for the greater Las Vegas Valley.
• Is responsible for acquiring and managing long-term water resources for Southern Nevada.
• From its inception, the SNWA has worked to acquire additional water resources, manage existing and future
water resources, construct and operate regional water facilities and promote water conservation.
Source Raw Water
Lake Mead, America’s largest man-made reservoir,
was formed in 1935 after the completion of
Hoover Dam. Lake Mead has the capacity to store up to
28.5 million acre-feet1 (AF) of water. Nearly
97 percent of the water flowing into Lake Mead comes
from the Colorado River. The remaining
3 percent of the water in Lake Mead comes from the
Muddy and Virgin rivers and the
Las Vegas Wash.
Rímac River is a river in Peru, part of the Pacific
slope, which ends after bathing the cities of Lima
and Callao, in conjunction with the Chillon River
in the north, and the river Lurin, south. It has a
length of 160 km and a basin of 3,312 km ², of
which 2237.2 km ² is wet basin. The basin has a
total of 191 lakes, of which only 89 have been
studied.

• Pressure swing adsorption (PSA) is
a technology used to separate
some gas species from a mixture
of gases under pressure according
to the species' molecular
characteristics and affinity for an
adsorbent material.
• It operates at near-ambient
temperatures and so differs from
cryogenic distillation techniques
of gas separation.
• Special adsorptive materials (e.g.,
zeolites) are used as a molecular
sieve, preferentially adsorbing the
target gas species at high
pressure. The process then swings
to low pressure to desorb the
adsorbent material.
• Implementing the SCADA system
for the automation of the plant,
including in the process of
modernization of the company, so
you can have the latest
technology for monitoring and
remote operation through a radio
or optical fiber.
• Automation System Control
• Using a Moving Bed Bio Reactor-
MBBR, where the hydraulic
resistance time is reduced to one-
fifth, making it more compact
compared to other systems.
The process involves the
degradation bio aerobic through
moving bed, caused by
continuous aeration in the
bioreactor. The effluent passes
through the high-speed laminar
settler where clarified. after liquid
chlorine is dosed.
• AMB Serve as support for the
formation of microbial colonies
performing effluent organic
degradation. the AMB offer
simple solutions to the problem
of biological treatment and
organic load strippage, ammonia
nitrogen and nutrients without
the need for expansion of existing
tanks.

CONCLUSION
 Through this research work, we have known the different water treatment processes and all the
technologies that are used today to improve water quality. Also, we have learned what the key
processes are during this process and what the way to make the process more efficient is.
 This approach ignores important benefits of indoor conservation efforts. Increasing indoor water-
use efficiency would:
-Reduce energy and chemical costs associated with pumping water from the Colorado River,
treating it for use, transporting it, and treating it again as wastewater.
-Reduce energy-related greenhouse gas emissions.
-Save the customer money over the life of those improvements through reductions in energy,
water, and wastewater bills.
-Permit more people to be served with the same volume of water, without affecting return flows.
-Reduce dependence on water sources vulnerable to drought and political conflict. Delay or
eliminate the need for significant capital investment to expand conveyance and treatment
infrastructure.
The benefits of conservation extend beyond water. Saving water saves energy and money and
ensures that adequate water supply is available for future generations. Furthermore, extensive
water conservation and efficiency improvements will not result in demand hardening
 We can conclude that Water treatment is necessary to remove the impurities that are contained in
water as found in nature. Control or elimination of these impurities is necessary to combat
corrosion, scale formation, and fouling of heat transfer surfaces throughout the reactor facility and
support systems. Also, there are three reasons for using very pure water in reactor facility systems
to minimize corrosion, which is enhanced by impurities. To minimize radiation levels in a reactor
facility. Some of the natural impurities and most of the corrosion products become highly
radioactive after exposure to the neutron flux in the core region. If not removed.
RECOMMENDATIONS
• The recommendations offered in this study support Southern Nevada’s existing recycled water
programs and offer opportunities to expand them as well as to promote new recycled water uses.
These recommendations and the guiding principles that support them are complementary to the
region’s conservation efforts and provide sustainable solutions to make the best use of Southern
Nevada’s water resources.

INDTECH Final Research Paper

  • 1. INDUSTRIAL TECHNOLOGY Dr.-Ing. George Power RESEARCH WORK Drinking water and wastewater treatment processes
  • 2. QUESTIONS 1. Where exactly are the plants located? Are they in rural or populated areas? Are there other similar facilities? 2. What is the installed and planned plant capacity? 3. Analyze available water reserves and possible shortages in the near future. 4. Describe the drinking water process. Draw a process flow diagram with basic instrumentation and control loops. 5. Investigate and describe the process used for ozone production. 6. Describe the different analysis performed for water quality control. 7. What is the main use of the treated wastewater? Where is the excess sewage water treated? Describe both processes and draw the corresponding PFDs. 8. Estimate the annual cost of chemicals and energy used in both processes. 9. Explain the water-saving measures adopted by the City of Las Vegas and how these are enforced. How does automation help in this task? 10. Compare process technology, resource management, quality control, price, etc. between Las Vegas and our city.
  • 3. 1.- INTRODUCTION • The water supply for Las Vegas Valley is comprised of groundwater Setting wells and surface water. • Groundwater wells were the initial source of supply until after Hoover Dam was dedicated in 1935. • Surface water from Lake Mead, the water impounded behind the Hoover Dam, then became a source of water supply in 1942. • The Alfred Merritt Smith Water Treatment Facility (AMSWTF), a new intake, and a pumping system were designed and placed into service in 1971, providing a secondary source of raw-water supply from Lake Mead. • In 1991 the Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) was created to establish regional coordination of water resources and Nevada’s water entitlement from the Colorado River. SNWA includes all major water and wastewater agencies in southern Nevada, which are Las Vegas Valley Water District, City of Henderson, City of North Las Vegas, Boulder City, Las Vegas, Clark County Water Reclamation District, and Big Bend Water District.
  • 6. Alfred Merritt Smith Water Treatment Facility
  • 7. New River Mountains Water Treatment Facility (NRMWTF)
  • 8. DURANGO HILLS WATER RESOURCE CENTER • The City of Las Vegas and Las Vegas Valley Water District partnered to develop the Durango Hills Water Resource Center. • The $37 million Durango Hills Water Resource Center is one of the biggest public works projects ever undertaken by the City of Las Vegas. • The City of Las Vegas owns and operates the Durango Hills Water which can ultimately produce up to 10 million gallons of recycled water a day. That’s enough water to fill 1,000 residential swimming pools a day. • The Durango Hills Water collects and treats wastewater flow from municipal sewer interceptors and produces recycled water, treated to specific water quality standards so it can be safely used for irrigation purposes.

The SWWTP has a 4.0 MGD (Million gallons per day). The North WWTP is located on Drury Lane near the Ohio River southwest of the Henderson downtown area. The plant was originally constructed as a primary treatment facility in 1954. It was upgraded to secondary treatment in 1975 and renovated and expanded in 1991, 1996 and 2001. The 1991 expansion increased the design capacity to 7.5 mgd (Million gallons per day).

  • 10. 3. Analyze available water reserves and possible shortages in the near future
  • 11. Analysis of Water Reserves in Nevada Water recycling is a key component of Southern Nevada’s strategic plan for the region’s water resources. The climate of Nevada is characterized as semi- arid to arid with precipitation and temperature varying widely between the northern and southern regions of the State, and between valley floors and mountain tops.
  • 12. AVERAGE ANNUAL PRECIPITATION AT SELECTED LOCATIONS Total precipitation averages approximately 9 inches per year (53,000,000 acre-feet) making Nevada the most arid State in the Nation. Of the total annual average precipitation amount, approximately 10 percent accounts for stream runoff and ground-water recharge.

  • 20. 5.-Investigate and describe the process used for ozone production.
  • 23. Ozone Production: • Corona discharge method. • Reaction is endoderm and requires application of a large amount of energy. • Produced by means of an electric discharge applied to dry air or oxygen. • Applying a high voltage (6,000-20,000 V) to two electrodes and voltage produces an electric arc. In the arc of the O2 becomes O3. • Ozone is generated onsite because it is unstable and decomposes to elemental oxygen in a short amount of time after generation.
  • 27. Ozone Production SNWA - Pressure swing adsorption
  • 28. Preparation of Gas Ozone Generator Dry Air Ozone Ozone Injection System Static Mixer Water Inlet Contact Tank Ozone/Water Ozone Water Oulet Ozone Monitoring Excess Ozone Destruction Operation of Water Ozonation • The ozonation system consists of 6 components to achieve the irrigation water ozonation and anwashing. • Bubble difussers • Venturi Injection • Static Mixer
  • 29. • After generation, ozone is fed into a down-flow contact chamber containing the wastewater to be disinfected. • The main purpose of the contactor is to transfer ozone from the gas bubble into the bulk liquid while providing sufficient contact time for disinfection. • The effectiveness of disinfection depends on the susceptibility of the target organisms, the contact time, and the concentration of the ozone. International regulations ozone •The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standard average ozone concentration of 0.08 ppm in air for 8 hrs. •The OSHA, Occupational Safety and Health Administration) states that workers should not be exposed to a concentration greater than 1.0 ppm ozone for more than 8 hrs of work.
  • 30. Ozone Treatments Features • Improved water organoleptic characteristics. • Color, smell and taste undesirable, attenuated or eliminated. • Total destruction and fast (3000 times faster than chlorine) of bacteria, viruses and spores, with short contact times. • Destruction of iron and magnesium salts in the form of hydrates, resulting in easily removable products by decantation or filtration. • Clarifies water, leaving it particularly clean. • Its disinfectant covers a wide range of both temperatures and pH's. Ozone Safety Advantages • Ozone is not stored in bulk on-site • Catastrophic large-scale release is not likely because generator shutdown eliminates supply of ozone • Ozone is not explosive or flammable • No reported fatalities due to ozone exposure
  • 31. Ozone Advantages and Disadvantages ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGE Ozone is more effective than chlorine in destroying viruses and bacteria. Low dosage may not effectively inactivate some viruses, spores, and cysts. The ozonation process utilizes a short contact time (approximately 10 to 30 minutes). Ozonation is a more complex technology than is chlorine or UV disinfection, requiring complicated equipment and efficient contacting systems. • There are no harmful residuals that need to be removed after ozonation because ozone decomposes rapidly. Ozone is very reactive and corrosive, thus requiring corrosion-resistant material such as stainless steel. • After ozonation, there is no regrowth of microorganisms, except for those protected by the particulates in the wastewater stream. Ozonation is not economical for wastewater with high levels of suspended solids (SS), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand, or total organic carbon. Ozone is generated onsite, and thus, there are fewer safety problems associated with shipping and handling. Ozone is extremely irritating and possibly toxic, so off- gases from the contactor must be destroyed to prevent worker exposure. • Ozonation elevates the dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration of the effluent. The increase in DO can eliminate the need for reaeration and also raise the level of DO in the receiving stream. The cost of treatment can be relatively high in capital and in power intensiveness.
  • 32. 6.- QUALITY OF WATER Water delivered by the Las Vegas Valley Water District meets or surpasses all State of Nevada and federal drinking-water standards. • Treat water withdrawn from Lake Mead with small quantities of a disinfectant to destroy invasive quagga mussels, which do not impact water quality but can plug pumping equipment and pipelines. • Water then is sent to either the Alfred Merritt Smith Water Treatment Facility or the River Mountains Water Treatment Facility, where we treat it with ozone to kill potentially harmful microscopic organisms that may be present. • Use a multistage filtration system. • Add chlorine to minimize pipeline corrosion. • Uses advanced computer technologies to move water more quickly through the distribution system, which protects water quality and improves energy efficiency. TREATMENT Also test many regulated and unregulated contaminants more frequently than required. To ensure water safety: • Collected about 37,000 water samples in 2011 and conducted nearly 370,000 analyses of those samples. • Continually monitor water quality in “real time” 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. • Conduct tests for 91 regulated contaminants as well as about 30 unregulated contaminants. • Conduct extensive quality control sampling of our distribution system. While not required, this sampling is important for identifying potential areas for improvement. • They manage 363 sampling stations where They draw water samples for required bacteriological and chemical testing. Some stations are aboveground; others are installed in customers’ meter boxes to help ensure water quality is maintained all the way to the tap. TASTE • The tap water’s taste comes from naturally occurring minerals and from chlorine used in the treatment process. TESTING
  • 33. The U.S. EPA requires water agencies to monitor for 91 regulated contaminants: • 76 contaminants have “primary” standards: Are established to protect the public against consuming drinking-water contaminants at levels that present human-health risks. In 2011, They detected 21 contaminants with primary standards. • 15 contaminants have “secondary” standards: Established to help public water systems manage their drinking water for aesthetic considerations, such as taste, color and odor. These contaminants, while regulated, are not considered to present a risk to human health. • Turbidity: regulated by a Treatment Technique (tt) requirement: 95% of all samples taken after filtration each month must be less than 0.3 NTU. Maximum turbidity cannot exceed 1.0 NTU. • Before Las Vegas Valley Water District delivers your water, it undergoes a multistage treatment process. Drinking water, as well as bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants—any substances that are not H2O.
  • 34. Contaminants that may be present in source (untreated) water include: • Microbial contaminants: such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from urban runoff, septic systems, wildlife, agriculture and domestic wastewater discharges. Inorganic contaminants: such as salts and metals, which can be naturally occurring or result from urban runoff, septic systems and industrial or domestic wastewater discharges. • Pesticides and herbicides: which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban runoff and residential uses. • Organic chemical contaminants: including synthetic or volatile organic chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and can come from gas stations, urban runoff and septic systems. • Radioactive contaminants: which can be naturally occurring or the result of industrial activities. To ensure tap-water safety, EPA regulations limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems.

  • 49. 10.- LAS VEGAS AND LA ATARJEA In the area of water and sanitation in Peru: • Increased access to potable water from 30% to 62% occurred between the years 1980 to 2004. • Increasing access to sanitation from 9% to 30% between 1985 and 2004 in rural areas. • Disinfection of drinking water and sewage treatment. However, many challenges remain in the sector, such as: - Insufficient coverage of services. - Poor quality of service delivery that jeopardizes the health of the population. - Poor sustainability of constructed systems. - Rates that do not cover the costs of investment, operation and maintenance services. - Institutional and financial weakness. - Human resources in excess, low-skilled and high turnover. While in Las Vegas, The Southern Nevada Water Authority (SNWA) was formed in 1991 to manage Southern Nevada's water needs on a regional basis. • SNWA provides wholesale water treatment and delivery for the greater Las Vegas Valley. • Is responsible for acquiring and managing long-term water resources for Southern Nevada. • From its inception, the SNWA has worked to acquire additional water resources, manage existing and future water resources, construct and operate regional water facilities and promote water conservation.

Lake Mead has the capacity to store up to 28.5 million acre-feet1 (AF) of water. Nearly 97 percent of the water flowing into Lake Mead comes from the Colorado River. The remaining 3 percent of the water in Lake Mead comes from the Muddy and Virgin rivers and the Las Vegas Wash. Rímac River is a river in Peru, part of the Pacific slope, which ends after bathing the cities of Lima and Callao, in conjunction with the Chillon River in the north, and the river Lurin, south. It has a length of 160 km and a basin of 3,312 km ², of which 2237.2 km ² is wet basin. The basin has a total of 191 lakes, of which only 89 have been studied.

  • 58. CONCLUSION  Through this research work, we have known the different water treatment processes and all the technologies that are used today to improve water quality. Also, we have learned what the key processes are during this process and what the way to make the process more efficient is.  This approach ignores important benefits of indoor conservation efforts. Increasing indoor water- use efficiency would: -Reduce energy and chemical costs associated with pumping water from the Colorado River, treating it for use, transporting it, and treating it again as wastewater. -Reduce energy-related greenhouse gas emissions. -Save the customer money over the life of those improvements through reductions in energy, water, and wastewater bills. -Permit more people to be served with the same volume of water, without affecting return flows. -Reduce dependence on water sources vulnerable to drought and political conflict. Delay or eliminate the need for significant capital investment to expand conveyance and treatment infrastructure. The benefits of conservation extend beyond water. Saving water saves energy and money and ensures that adequate water supply is available for future generations. Furthermore, extensive water conservation and efficiency improvements will not result in demand hardening  We can conclude that Water treatment is necessary to remove the impurities that are contained in water as found in nature. Control or elimination of these impurities is necessary to combat corrosion, scale formation, and fouling of heat transfer surfaces throughout the reactor facility and support systems. Also, there are three reasons for using very pure water in reactor facility systems to minimize corrosion, which is enhanced by impurities. To minimize radiation levels in a reactor facility. Some of the natural impurities and most of the corrosion products become highly radioactive after exposure to the neutron flux in the core region. If not removed.
