  • Module 22: Inorganics Removal Basics
    Drinking Water Operator Certification Training Module 22: Inorganics Removal Basics Revised May 4, 2018 This course module was developed by the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection. Content sources are referenced at the end of every module unit. 1 2 DISCLAIMER: This module was designed as a training module for Pennsylvania drinking water operators to study prior to taking the drinking water subclass 9 ion exchange and greensand exam. The focus of this exam is the removal of inorganic constituents from drinking water using the treatment processes ion exchange or greensand filtration. As a result, this training module focuses on the treatment methods of ion exchange units and greensand filters. In addition, there is a focus on the removal of some of the inorganic contaminants common in Pennsylvania groundwater systems: nitrates, iron, and manganese. Since arsenic, barium and mercury, may sporadically be found in Pa. groundwater, treatment options for these contaminants will also be mentioned in this module. Because radionuclides, radon, and hydrogen sulfide may also be found in Pa groundwaters, they are also briefly mentioned. Water softening is also discussed. Note that since lead and copper treatment is covered in Module 20: Corrosion Control and Sequestering, treatment of those inorganic contaminants is not discussed in this module. The 2006 version of the Pa. DEP Inorganic Contaminant Removal module has detailed advanced treatment information on this topic and can be obtained by e-mailing the Pa. DEP Safe Drinking Water Training Section at [email protected] to request a copy. This advanced module has additional information on the removal of various inorganic contaminants as well as on oxidation, ion exchange, activated alumina and sequestration.

  • Sulfate Scale
    TECHNICAL SERVICE GUIDE Sulfate Scale The following are general recommendations for controlling sulfate scale in systems using reverse osmosis (RO) and nanofiltration (NF) elements. For additional information on pretreatment or cleaning elements, please see MANN+HUMMEL Water & Fluid Solutions Pretreatment and Cleaning Guides or contact MANN+HUMMEL Water & Fluid Solutions Technical Service. INTRODUCTION Scaling is when sparingly soluble salts precipitate and deposit on the surface of a membrane element. The solubility of barium, calcium and strontium is low and may lead to scale formation on the membrane surface where the salts are most concentrated. This typically affects the elements in the last stage first and then gradually affects the stages upstream. Barium sulfate (BaSO4) is the most insoluble of all the alkaline-earth sulfates. When present in water, it may precipitate and act as a catalyst for calcium and strontium sulfate scaling. Typically, barium can be found in well waters, with typical concentrations less than 0.05 ppm to 0.2 ppm. However, in most natural waters, barium is present at a level that may cause barium sulfate scaling. The critical feed concentration of barium may be as low as 0.015 ppm in seawaters, 0.005 ppm in brackish waters or even 0.002 ppm if sulfuric acid is dosed to brackish waters. Early detection of sulfate scaling is essential to prevent possible damage on the membrane surface. A number of factors can affect the rate of scale formation including temperature and pH control, as well as the use of antiscalants. If the scaling potential for barium, calcium and/or strontium sulfates is high, some common methods to control scaling potential include: • The use of a scale inhibitor or antiscalant is the most common method to reduce sulfate scale • Decreasing the calcium and alkalinity concentrations in the feed solution by means of lime or lime-soda ash softening to lower pHs (the pH of saturation).

  • Impacts and Mitigations of in Situ Bitumen Production from Alberta Oil Sands
    Impacts and Mitigations of In Situ Bitumen Production from Alberta Oil Sands Neil Edmunds, P.Eng. V.P. Enhanced Oil Recovery Laricina Energy Ltd. Calgary, Alberta Submission to the XXIst World Energy Congress Montréal 2010 - 1 - Introduction: In Situ is the Future of Oil Sands The currently recognized recoverable resource in Alberta’s oil sands is 174 billion barrels, second largest in the world. Of this, about 150 billion bbls, or 85%, is too deep to mine and must be recovered by in situ methods, i.e. from drill holes. This estimate does not include any contributions from the Grosmont carbonate platform, or other reservoirs that are now at the early stages of development. Considering these additions, together with foreseeable technological advances, the ultimate resource potential is probably some 50% higher, perhaps 315 billion bbls. Commercial in situ bitumen recovery was made possible in the 1980's and '90s by the development in Alberta, of the Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) process. SAGD employs surface facilities very similar to steamflooding technology developed in California in the ’50’s and 60’s, but differs significantly in terms of the well count, geometry and reservoir flow. Conventional steamflooding employs vertical wells and is based on the idea of pushing the oil from one well to another. SAGD uses closely spaced pairs of horizontal wells, and effectively creates a melt cavity in the reservoir, from which mobilized bitumen can be collected at the bottom well. Figure 1. Schematic of a SAGD Well Pair (courtesy Cenovus) Economically and environmentally, SAGD is a major advance compared to California-style steam processes: it uses about 30% less steam (hence water and emissions) for the same oil recovery; it recovers more of the oil in place; and its surface impact is modest.

  • Cold Lime Softening Soda Ash May Be Added to Remove Calcium Hardness Hard Water Is Water That Has High Mineral Content
    The WWETCO FlexFilter™ from WesTech provides an innovative solution for industrial water pretreatment and/or tertiary treatment. The combination of tapered media compression, porosity gradient within the media bed, and a low flow backwash system make the WWETCO FlexFilter™ one of the most versatile and efficient filters on the market. Cold Lime Softening Soda ash may be added to remove calcium hardness Hard water is water that has high mineral content. if the raw water does contain sufficient alkalinity The name comes from the hard scale that forms when for complete removal of hardness. Settled solids this water is boiled. It is not harmful to human react with lime and soda ash to form larger and health, but in the industrial setting it causes costly faster settling particles. The clarified water flows breakdowns in boilers, cooling towers, and other over weirs and the solids (sludge) are scraped to the water handling equipment.

  • Lime Softening Sources, Have Relatively Stable Water Which and the Complexity of the Chemistry of Variable Source Water Quality Quality
    A NATIONAL DRINKING WATER CLEARINGHOUSE FACT SHEET Lime Softening Summary Hard water can cause scaling problems in water heaters and soap does not lather well in hard water. Therefore, some water utilities soften water to improve its quality for domestic use. Lime softening is best suited to groundwater sources, which have relatively stable water quality. The combination of variable source water quality and the complexity of the chemistry of lime softening may make lime softening too complex for small systems that use surface water sources. Although lime softening has been used successfully by groundwater systems serving fewer than 3,000 people, it is unlikely to be suitable for ○○○○○○○○○○○○ treating groundwater in systems serving 500 or fewer people unless those systems have some form of contract or satellite operation that would enable a trained operator to monitor the treatment process. Prefabricated lime softening equipment is available for small systems. Also, there is an American Water Works Association Standard for quicklime and hydrated lime (ANSI/AWWA B202-93) that provides purchasers, manufacturers, and suppliers with the minimum requirements, including physical, chemical, packaging, shipping, and testing requirements. Either hydrated lime [Ca(OH)2] or quicklime (CaO) may be used in the softening process. The choice depends upon economic factors, such as the○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○ relative cost per ton of the two materials as well as the size and equipment of the softening plant. Hydrated lime is generally used more in smaller plants because it stores better and does not require slaking (producing a chemical change in lime by combining it with water) equipment. On the other hand, quick- lime costs less per ton of available calcium oxide and is thus more economical for use in large plants.
