  • Wastwater Treatment Facility
    LYNN REGIONALWATER PULLITON FACILITY 2 Circle Avenue Lynn, MA 01905-3037 | Phone: (781) 592-7048 HISTORY The Lynn Water and Sewer Commission (LWSC) was created in 1982 by the City of Lynn in conjunction with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Through its Regional Water Pollution Control Facility, the Commission provides wastewater treatment services for Lynn, Saugus, Swampscott and Nahant. The LWSC began building its 65 million dollar Primary Wastewater Treatment Facility in 1980 and became operational in 1985. The 53.8 million dollar Secondary Treatment expansion became operational September 1990. The LWSC entered into a long term (20-year) contract with Veolia Water North America for the operations and maintenance of its Wastewater Treatment facility in 2001. PROCESS and OPERATIONS The Lynn WWTP is a primary and secondary treatment plant. The purpose of the primary treatment is to remove Settleable and floatable material (sludge, grease, etc.). The secondary treatment is directed related toward the removal of biodegradable organic and suspended solids. Under normal operating conditions the facility removes a minimum of eighty-five percent (85%) of the Influent total suspended solids and eighty five percent (85%) of BOD5. The plant has been designed to process flows averaging 25.8 million gallons per day during dry weather periods. During wet weather conditions, the plant can process flows in excess of 110.8 million gallons per day. The Lynn WWTP receives flows from four communities; the City of Lynn, and the Towns of Saugus, Nahant and Swampscott. Saugus, Swampscott and Nahant deliver flow to the facility via three force mains; two 30 inch and an 18 inch, respectively.

  • Veolia Vs. Veracity Consumer Group Corrects Company’S “Factual Showdown”
    Veolia vs. Veracity Consumer group corrects company’s “factual showdown” Veolia Environnement’s U.S. subsidiary, Veolia Water North America, has prepared and distributed literature entitled “PPP vs. Public Citizen: Sorting Fact From Fiction.” The piece lifts scattered statements, or shreds of statements, from some of the consumer group’s introductory materials on water privatization, and eagerly characterizes each statement as a “claim.” Veolia’s “response” follows. Apparently, the idea is that cleverly combined corporate spin and obfuscation will discredit Public Citizen’s Water for All campaign, thus paving the way once and for all for every community in the United States to sign a long- term monopoly water and/or wastewater service contract with a huge conglomerate headquartered in Paris. Public Citizen is pleased that Veolia executives have taken time to familiarize themselves with at least one or two items among the extensive research and materials compiled on Public Citizen’s Water for All website, www.wateractivist.org. Public Citizen invites community leaders, water/wastewater professionals and citizens to visit the site themselves and learn more about the track records of private water corporations, their regulatory and legislative agenda, and the struggles with water corporations that have been faced by communities the world over. Interested parties are particularly invited to examine the recently updated corporate profile of the world’s largest private water company: Veolia Environnement, (www.citizen.org/cmep/veolia) Meantime, below are some of Veolia’s assertions from “PPP vs Public Citizen,” organized under the same headings as those used in the corporate piece, with Public Citizen’s corrections.

  • Seawater Desalination Technologies
    Fact Sheet Seawater desalination technologies Research Office Legislative Council Secretariat FS07/14-15 1. Introduction 1.1 Desalination is a process of removing dissolved salts from seawater to produce fresh water for consumption. There are two major types of desalination technologies around the world, namely membrane desalination and thermal desalination. The former technology features the use of a special filtre (membrane) to produce desalinated water, whereas the latter technology involves the boiling/evaporation of seawater to give off water vapour which, on condensation, yields salt-free liquid water. 1.2 Reverse osmosis ("RO") is a predominant form of membrane desalination. For thermal desalination, the most commonly adopted technologies are multi-stage flash evaporation ("MSF") and multi-effect distillation ("MED")1. RO is currently the most widely used method for desalination. In 2012, it accounted for 63% of the desalination production capacity worldwide, followed by MSF (23%) and MED (8%).2 1.3 Developed countries such as France, Germany and Spain have led the technologies in the global desalination market. France and Germany make heavy use of their abundant natural water resources, but they have also invested in the development of desalination technologies and related products for export. Spain, a leading exporter of desalination technologies, also makes use of the technologies to produce desalinated water for domestic consumption.3 This fact sheet aims to provide the Panel on Development with information on the different features of the RO, MSF and MED technologies. 1 MSF is more commonly used in energy-rich countries such as Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. MED is the oldest technology and countries that have adopted this technology in recent years include India and the United Arab Emirates.
