HOT SPRINGS FILTRATION PLANT

BACKGROUND

An accommodation and wellness centre engaged with the local council and agreed to improve the quality of the water spent from their hot springs prior to discharge into the environment.

To meet the stringent log reduction parameters for water treatment, a process solution incorporating a containerised Multimedia Filter (MMF) with validated UV disinfection was implemented. MAK Water worked with the client to understand their concerns regarding rainfall ingress and installed a cost effective integrated manual change over line to allow the client to perform a rainwater first flush. The solution enabled the client to meet their sustainability goals and local council requirements.

This is the second plant that has installed MAK Water for similar applications for this client as it works to reduce its environmental footprint. The containerised plant reduces install time, removes the need for additional shelters and improves the longevity of the plant in harsh operating conditions.

SOLUTION

Containerised Multimedia Filter (MMF) to treat 600 m3/day of groundwater for discharge to environment.
