  • At Bristol Water's Banwell Treatment Plant
    PROJECT CASE STUDY BOLL PROTECTS SUBMERGED MEMBRANE at Bristol Water’s Banwell Treatment Plant Bristol Water has upgraded its Banwell Water Treatment Plant in Somerset with the installation of a Siemens Memcor submerged ultrafiltration plant protected by an automatic Bollfilter system. The Banwell Plant, which has a 30 megalitre per day capacity and serves some 120,000 people in Weston Super Mare and the surrounding area, treats water from three local sources: Winscombe bore hole; Banwell Spring and Blagdon Reservoir. The Memcor Continuous Ultrafiltration (CS) System, which provides a barrier against cryptosporidium, other bacteria and suspended solids, consists of six racks of submerged membrane filtration cells, each containing 240 individual membrane modules. Raw water is drawn through the membrane cell walls and up through fine tubes in each cell to provide filtration to 0.1 micron, with automatic backflushing to maintain filtration performance. In order to protect the fine membranes in the Memcor CS plant, a Bollfilter automatic filtration system has been installed just a few metres below the holding tank on the feed water line. Three 6.18 SUC filters operate duty/duty/standby to provide continual filtration down to 500 micron, each with an backflush assist pump to ensure effective cleaning under the low pressure conditions. Banwell Treatment Plant is designed for un-manned operation. Boll automatic filters are particularly suitable for such installations thanks to their reliable, self-cleaning operation and minimal maintenance requirements. TOP.

  • The Barrington Papers the Barrington Papers
    The Barrington Papers The Barrington Papers Delia Barrington’s notes on Binegar’s history 1 The Barrington Papers Introduction to Delia Barrington, 1912-1991 Delia Barrington (née Parker) was born in 1912 in Kensington, London and the family then moved to Ealing where she spent the early years of her life. She was of Huguenot descent through her father's side of the family and a member of the Huguenot Society of London for most of her life. Sometime between 1934 and '37, when she was in her mid-twenties, she enjoyed working, along with a number of other volunteers, for the archaeologist Sir Mortimer Wheeler who was excavating the site of the Iron Age Hill Fort at Maiden Castle in Dorset. This was the start of her interest in archaeology and a development of her interest and involvement in local history: something that was to remain with her throughout her life. She joined the Women's Land Army during the Second World War, working on a farm in Buckinghamshire. The hours were long and the work hard but she found it rewarding and made many friends. In 1941, she met the chauffeur of exiled King Zog of Albania who was living nearby. The story goes that she was courted by him, not with flowers but with kippers, which were left for her by the farm gates! These tactics were obviously successful because at the end of the war she and the chauffeur (William Barrington) were married. In the late 1940s, Delia and William went to Holsworthy in Devon where they ran a farm together but after a few years decided that it was not the life for them and they moved to Bristol where William was employed, once again, as a chauffeur until his retirement.

  • Eutrophication: Research and Application to Water Supply
    EUTROPHICATION: RESEARCH AND APPLICATION TO WATER SUPPLY Edited by DAVID W. SUTCLIFFE AND J. GWYNFRYN JONES Published by the Freshwater Biological Association Invited papers from a specialised conference held in London on 10-11 December 1991 by the Freshwater Biological Association, The Ferry House, Far Sawrey, Ambleside, Cumbria LA22 OLP and International Water Supply Association, 1 Queen Anne's Gate, London SW1H 9BT © Freshwater Biological Association 1992 ISBN 0-900386-52-5 Active reservoir management: a model solution J. HILTON, A. E. IRISH AND C. S. REYNOLDS Institute of Freshwater Ecology, Windermere Laboratory, Far Sawrey, Ambleside, Cumbria LA22 OLP, England Predictions from a functional model of algal growth capacity (maximum achievable algal biomass) and algal species succession for Chew Valley Lake (UK) were compared with observed data for 1989. Initial simulations grossly underestimated algal growth from the late spring onwards. However, inclusion of a pulsed input of phosphorus from the sediment, at a level consistent with field observations, resulted in very good predictions. The model was then applied to a number of hypothetical operational scenarios as examples of the use of such a model as a tool for reservoir management. An example is also given of an extension of the model to predict chemical properties of abstracted and treated water. Introduction Several presentations in this conference have outlined the difficulties of using both steady-state and statistically-fitted models when predicting the effects of remedial actions on algal growth. Steady-state procedures, of their very nature, cannot deal with dynamic situations. Statistical models require extensive calibration, and predictions often have to be made for environmental conditions which are often outside the original calibration conditions.
